Truck and Trailer Guide

Tired of messing with ramps? Towmaster’s drop-deck tilt-bed trailer features a dual-locking, single lever tilt mechanism that lets the operator tilt the bed from one side of the trailer. A hydraulic cylinder cushions the deck to ease the equipment when unloading or loading. When the equipment is loaded, the deck automatically locks into place. The improved approach ramp provides traction and a low-load angle. Rubber-torsion axles provide a smooth tow and a self-charging battery break-away system is included for safety. The T-12DT is available in several deck lengths.

Quick specifications:

• One-piece cold-formed frame rails

• 6 in. (15 cm) I-beam main frame

• Integrated storage tray

• 12K bolt-on side-wind parking jack

• Battery break-away kit w/tow charger and test light

• Deck cushion cylinder

• Dual-point, single lever positive locking mechanism

• 2 in. (5 cm) nominal white oak wood deck

• D-ring tie-downs

• Rubber-ride suspension axles

• Electric brakes

• Forward self-adjusting brakes

• Rubber grommet mounted LED lights
