PES can supply electronic forward/reverse levers for Thwaites site dumpers for dumpers fitted with the ITL transmission. Forward/reverse levers are fitted to dumpers with over 4000kg capacity but here in the UK the majority of them are fitted to Thwaites 5 Tonne, Thwaites 6 Tonne and Thwaites 9 Tonne dumpers in both swivel skip and straight tip format. There is still a small population of the Thwaites 4 Tonne swivel skip with the Perkins 3.152 engine and powershift transmission still in circulation but these are getting rare now.
There are several different types of lever for all the range of Thwaites dumpers, the easiest way to ascertain which one is required is by the year of manufacturer but we stock all of them. On the older Thwaites dumper type there is a gator fitted to you forward/reverse lever that keeps dirt out of the detent mechanism which holds the lever in the selected position of forward, neutral and reverse. If this detent wears and fails the Thwaites lever will not stay in position and therefore PES can supply a new gator and knob to prolong the life of your Thwaites forward/reverse lever.
As the largest supplier of dumper parts in the UK, PES are able to supply all your Thwaites dumper forward/reverse lever and accessory requirements from our £750k worth of dumper parts on the shelf, ready for next day delivery.
