ELB Equipment’s latest range of dedicated Dressta landfill dozers is optimally designed for spreading and compacting waste, meeting high production demands on municipal sites. Recent sales include the delivery of a Dressta TD-15M LA dozer to a local municipality in the Dundee region of KwaZulu-Natal. This machine, which is designed for mid-sized landfills, will be deployed in place of previously leased equipment. The Dressta TD-15M LA joins two MST backhoe loaders supplied previously by ELB Equipment.

“Machines like this tailor-made Dressta landfill machine and its bigger counterparts for larger landfills are a sensible alternative. Being specially designed for this type of operation, its running gear, tracks, filtration systems and fans, as well as service points, are designed to work for prolonged periods of time with little intervention required from the operator or service teams,” says Tshepo Mathekgane, tender sales manager for ELB Equipment.
The power to perform
The Dressta TD-15M LA dozer has an operating weight of approximately 15 t and is powered by a 142 kW Cummins diesel engine with full power shift transmission. Key performance elements include a highly efficient torque converter, lubricated track systems, plus the machine’s hydraulic lift, tilt and angle blade. Comfort and safety equipment include a standard air conditioner and fully enclosed rollover-protection cab.
To thrive in its tough environment, the Dressta TD-15M LA also comes equipped with robust features that include: • a reversible fan and self-cleaning radiator • a semi-U blade with trash rack and increased blade capacity • track shoes with clean-out holes • steel debris deflector bars located below the engine • tank guards to protect fuel and hydraulics reservoirs. These features – combined with ELB Equipment’s one-year or 2 000-hour warranty – make a strong business case for local municipalities.
