The 1 1/2" backpack dredge is ideal for small creeks and hard to get to places. The total weight is 35 lbs. Great for packing in and out . The dredge comes equipped with 10’ suction hose, 10’ pressure hose, 1 1/2" suction nozzle and one 6’ foot valve intake line. The sluice box is 6 3/4" X 36" so that makes you ready for the prospecting trip you are planning. Dredge capacity up to 2+ yard per hour of loose pack gravel.
The dredge comes with a Shindaiwa 4 stroke, 1.4hp engine and a self priming pump. New Epa approved Shindaiwa pump and motor. Shindaiwa C4 Technology® features a unique patented feature called the Power Boost Chamber. This supercharging element helps the engine develop more horsepower and torque compared to traditional 4-stroke engines that do not have the Power Boost Chamber. In multi-position use, an oil pump slinger is ineffective in properly lubricating critical engine parts. In addition, the mechanical slinger tends to reduce overall output and will diminish an engines performance. Again, our C4 Technology® has just a single container for the gas and oil fuel mix, no need for an oil pump slinger, separate oil sump, and dipstick!
