Re: Hi all,
Hi Danny,
Thats deffinately a Aveling Barford dumper, I had an identical one. Mine was new to a local company 1974/5. I bought it and ran it on for about 5 years till about 1995.
I can't remember the model but it was a good tool it had a better than most stearing lock and plenty of power from the Perkins 3-152 engine.
I tried to get parts from Aveling Barford and they refered me to the Barfords of Belton factory where they were made.
Sadly, because of its age, they couldn't help either and after unsuccesfully looking for a gearbox or parts for a couple of years I cut it up,(it wasn't a standard box).
I havent got a decent pic. of my Barford but you can see the corner of it here, this pic.was taken to show the Gabions not the machines. The excavator peeping in on the other side was our JS110.

Re: Hi all,
Hi Fowler man, thank you for the info. Mine is still running but obviously is an old machine that i hope will last the house build. The engine starts and runs no problems but the joints are a bit sloppy and worn. I am slowly improving the dumper fixing bits as i go. If you or anyone knows which model this is i would be delighted - there are no markings on the machine.
Re: Hi all,
This machines are too old d I am seeing first time this kind of dumpers.
I don't think so any new user can recognize it , so i suggest contact any old machinery dealer who deal in dumper and have well experience with dumpers.
Thank you.
