PTO-Powered Self-Loading Container Trailer
The PTO-Powered Self-Loading Container Trailer is a China-made self-loading container trailer combining container transportation with hydraulic side-loading capability, allowing operators to load and unload containers without relying on a separate fixed lifting machine. Its hydraulic system can be powered by the towing vehicle's power take-off (PTO), with a diesel auxiliary power unit (APU) available as an alternative configuration.
This PTO-powered container sidelifter trailer is designed to transport either two 20ft containers or one 40ft container. It features a three-axle chassis, 12 twist locks, wireless remote control and manual operation.
