Wacker Neuson presents new ‘steering logic’ DT25 crawler-mounted dumper at INTERMAT 2012
It might be logical to think that bigger construction machines will be harder to steer – but then there’s the 1651 Wacker Neuson DT25 crawler-mounted dumper.  
The largest in the five-strong DT series of crawler-mounted dumpers, the DT25 comes with in-built ‘steering logic’. On sensitive surfaces or restricted spaces, the driver doesn’t need to turn, merely having to rotate the seat through 180°, and is always driving in the direction in which they’re moving the joystick.

The DT25 has a loading capacity of up to 2.5tonnes and is equipped with fully hydrostatic traction drive. This, with either a powerful diesel or gasoline engine, is said by Wacker Neuson to guarantee excellent manoeuvrability even on difficult terrain.
