The Truxor Amphibious Machines and Attachments.
The unique Truxor multi-functional machines have made great advances on both land and water since the first machine was introduced in 1996, this being the first of its kind on the market. Its' amphibious properties make it the ideal choice for working in and around water. Driven with care and with its' minimal ground pressure, damage to river banks and sensitive areas can be minimised making the Truxor ideal for working on golf courses, nature reserves and public parks where larger, heavier machines have difficulty operating.
The Truxor is easy to drive and can turn on its' own axis in water. The joy-stick steering is precise and is ideal for operating in confined spaces such as marinas, retention ponds. The wide range of attachments make it an ideal tool for a variety of tasks. The quick connection system allows for the easy exchange of most tools. The Truxor can be converted from a reed cutter to a collector in the blink of an eye.
The machines are normally delivered filled with standard hydraulic oil ISO WG 46 or they can be supplied with environmentally friendly bio-degradable oil.
We are pleased to offer two similar looking models who’s operating capabilities differ with the size of engine, hydraulic system and optional tools.
The Truxor DM 4700 B is the original which has been continuously updated and improved since its' launch in 1996. We recommend this machine primarily for reed harvesting and the cutting and collecting of aquatic plants.
The Truxor DM 5000 is our latest model with a different hydraulic system and a larger engine as the power source for the tool attachments. In addition to its' cutting and collecting capabilities this new machine is designed to offer more possibilities for dredging and oil decontamination.

TOOL OPTIONS
|
Dredge Pump 2500
For pumping sediment. The feed screw aerates the bottom so that the pump receives an even flow. The pump can also be equipped with a suction funnel which is recommended when the sediment it light and soft. A cutting device at the opening of the suction pump cuts roots and other soft objects. The pump is controlled from a start panel mounted by the driver's seat.
|
 |
Doro Pump
The Doro Pump is the new addition to our range of pumps designed specifically for the new Truxor DM 5000 running directly from the hydraulic engine. It has a capacity of 2,642 - 10,570 gal/h depending on material, lifting height and length of hose. The pump is mounted on a telescopic arm (sold separately). A rotating wheel with horizontal cutters and vertical teeth aerates the sediment and cuts off roots and soft materials to facilitate feeding of material into the pump. The rotating wheel makes the pump easier to manoeuvre than its predecessor which had a feeding screw at the pump inlet. The feeding is important to providing an even flow of sediment to the pump; also facilitated by the knives positioned at the inlet of the pump.
|
 
|
Sala Roll Pump
Pumps light sediment with a minimum amount of water. The pump works with a strong vacuum and high pressure. This high pressure allows sediment to be transported long distances. The dredging can be carried out without the water becoming discoloured. The dredging pipe is mounted on to the lift arm which can be pressed down into the sediment. Light and soft deposits can be sucked directly from the bottom. Capacity: 3,170 gal/h at 6 bar.

Doro Cutter 3090/3091
The Doro Cutter 3090 is recommended for cutting of normal aquatic vegetation and is usually the obvious choice in most waters. The cutter is operated hydraulically and is easily connected to the Truxor’s equipment bracket. Cutting depth is 3'-3". The knives are exchangeable and the working breadth may be varied from 7'-2" to 13'-1". The cutter requires water for lubrication during work and is therefore not suitable for use on land. A stone-triggered system protects it from breaking the knives against solid objects. The Doro Cutter 3091 is the same model of cutter, but has an extended cutting depth of 4'-6". Both models are delivered as standard with a knife work width of 13'-1".
|
 |
|
Doro Cutter ESM 1700
This cutter is side-mounted on Truxor for cutting along riversides and
channels so that the angle of the cutting unit can be adjusted. The knives are a Busati model which means that the cutter does not need water for lubrication when working. Doro Cutter ESM 1700 is equipped with an automatic stone-triggered solution which protects the cutter when motion is stopped due to solid objects. The cutter has a work width of 5'-6" and a cutting depth of 1'-6". It has good capacity and the Doro Cutter ESM 1700 cuts thick reeds and plant growth without problems.
|
 |
|
Doro Cutter ESM 2100
For the cutting of reed and larger aquatic plants found in the margins and along river banks. The Doro Cutter ESM 2100 is a front attached cutter with Busati model double action knives which means that the cutter does not need water as a lubricant when working. The knives do not require water for lubrication and are suitable for use in shallow water and in marshlands. The Doro Cutter ESM 2100 has good capacity and can also be used for thick reeds. Work width 6'-9" and cutting depth of 1'-6". |
|
|
Doro Cutter ESM 2200
Doro Cutter ESM 2200 cuts and gathers at the same time making it the ideal tool for working in marinas and small streams where water is constantly moving. If only the cutting function is required the collection basket can be easily removed. Doro Cutter ESM 2200 has a work width of 6'-9" and a cutting depth of approximately 2'-6" below the water. The knives are a Busati double-action model which means that the cutter does not require water for lubrication while working. |

This rake has a high tipping height which facilitates loading onto e.g. trailers or barges. The rake is made of perforated steel plating and can gather smaller particles such as litter, algae and absorbers (oil decontamination).
Work width 7'
Weight 149.9 lbs
Max. lift height in water 4'-3"
Max. lift height on land 5'-6"
|
 |
| Strainer Plates
Collection is just as important as cutting. Cut water plants left in the water act as a fertiliser. We therefore recommend that cut plants always be collected and removed. By gathering water plants and picking them up, you also help to remove part of the "over-fertilisation" from the lake. For those using their reed cutter in different type of water, we usually recommend cleaning the machine between moves in order to prevent spreading undesired water plants to new water systems.
|
 |
| Lifting Rake
The strong construction and heavy duty forks make it an excellent tool for lifting heavier objects such as tree branches, rocks and debris from waterways, canals and beaches.
Work width: 3'-9"
Weight: 79.4 lbs
|
 |
|
Excavator
The excavator can be mounted on either of the Truxor models. The unit becomes a floating excavator offering unique possibilities. Ideal for clearing inlets and around sluice gates, digging channels and even cable laying. The excavator is operated from the drivers position with the two
lever operating consul connected to a central adjustable bracket. The amphibious nature of the Truxor allows excavation work to be carried out in areas inaccessible to conventional equipment.
Digging Radius: 10'-2"
Digging Depth: 7'-6"
Weight: 727.5 lbs |
 |
|
Grip bucket and log grab
The grip bucket is used for the removal of silt and submerged objects from canal bottoms or lakes. Using the telescopic arm gives a working depth of 5'-6". For surface work the standard bracket is used for the bucket or log grab giving a greater lifting power without the telescopic arm.
 
|
 |
Cultivator
The Doro Miller is used as a restoration miller for wetlands, beaches and lake bottoms. The miller is available in different work widths; they are exchangeable and can be dismounted from the operating unit. The operating unit is mounted on the lifting arm. When water lily roots and other roots are to be removed, a rotary knife is attached using an extension on the lifting arm which gives a work depth of 5'-3"

 |
Oil Decontamination
The new Truxor 5000 has been designed to accommodate a new range of products for oil spill clean-up.
The Doroskimmer 400 can be used with two types of pump for use with heavy or light oil. The Skimmer is delivered with a brush roller of mixed brush thicknesses which is suitable for decontamination of most type of oils. Combine with Sala or Foilex pumps.
Capacity 52.8 gal/h
Weight 105.8 lbs |
 |
|
The Sala Roll Pump can be used independently for dredging or “vacuuming” oil residue where the skimmer cannot operate.
The Sala Pump is a suitable pump for decontamination operations for thick-flowing or polluted substances in hard-to-reach places. A very strong vacuum gives a high suction capacity. The high pressure transports the substances long stretches. The Sala Roll Pump is used separately with a suction piece or in combination with the Doroskimmer 400.
|
 |
| Foilex is a high capacity pump for use on larger oil spills.
The Foilex is a patented low-speed TDS Pump with "Twin Disc Screw" pump technology with a higher capacity than the conventional screw pump. The inlet has cutting knives and can pump both thick and thin substances. A Foilex pump is mounted on a Doroskimmer 400 and can also be adapted for use separately. Delivered with a 9'-8" pressure tube Ø 3.9".
Capacity: 4,755.1 gal/h at 6 bar |
 |
Doro Tank
Oil decontamination has different prerequisites for different environments. During the final phase of work, there are usually smaller areas with pools of oil where it can be more practical to use a mobile tank.
The Doro Tank has a 52.8 gallon capacity and is mounted between the pontoons and has couplings for simple connection to pumps as well as a connection for emptying the tank. The Doro Tank is used in combination with a Doroskimmer 400.
|
