MTE recently completed this 3 Rows of 4 Widener for Monk Earthworks, purpose-built to provide a versatile heavy machinery transport solution for their earthmoving operations.
The trailer features MTE’s hydraulic widening system, allowing the 2,500mm closed deck to widen out to 3,600mm when required. Combined with hydraulic suspension and a low 820mm loading height, the trailer provides the flexibility to handle a wide range of earthmoving and construction machinery.
