The Most Advanced ATV Dump Trailer Design
The Workman XL atv dump trailer is the most advanced off-road atv dump trailer you have ever seen! Amazing features like massive 25″ tires, 4 wheel independent torsion suspension, electric brakes, tail/brake light and a push-button power dump makes the Workman XL ATV Dump Trailer the safest, most capable and easiest to use trailer designed for rugged off road hauling and dumping! The massive tires and independent suspension are engineered to smoothly traverse across the most rugged terrain, even under heavy load! The dump bed is controlled from the handlebar mounted controller or optional wireless remote for easy push-button control. The operator may choose to completely empty or incrementally empty the contents of the trailer. The electric brakes provide stopping power for almost any load and condition. These trailers are ideal for farms, ranches, property owners, nurseries, vineyards, parks & rec and sports turf applications. Many customers use them for hauling and dumping firewood, gravel, rocks, dirt, compost, manure, hay, feed, mulch, hunting decoys and supplies and other equipment and materials. The Workman XL atv dump trailer is the partner you can count on, day in and day out.
Electric 'Push-Button' Power Dump System
Dumping cargo with the electric lift is as easy as pushing a button right from the seat of your ATV or tractor! There is no need to manually dump or struggle with a winch system. Simply use the handlebar mounted controller to raise and lower the dump bed with ZERO effort. The powerful electric lift can easily dump a fully loaded trailer bed weighing over a half ton (U.S Rating = 1,100 lbs.)! A fully electric system also offers additional benefits: it is maintenance free, no hoses to manage, no hydraulic fluid to leak, no dirt or grime, no manual labor & no greasing required. Some trailers use a manual winch and boom arm system that requires 1 – 2 manual revolutions to raise the bed just 1″. Don’t struggle with a manual winch when a simple push of a button can get the job done much faster and with no effort! Also because the actuator pushes the bed up, from under the bed, there is no tall boom arm in the way to prevent you from going wherever you need to go.
Controllable Dump Angle
The ABI Workman trailer has a very steep dump angle that enables the operator to fully empty the load without manual labor. Many trailers do not have a steep enough angle and force the operator to manually complete the job with a shovel. Not the Workman Trailer however, in fact the trailer dump system is so advanced, the dump angle can be adjusted from the seat of the tow vehicle “on-the-fly.” This allows precise dumping of, just the right amount of, material where you need it. This is ideal for spot filling gravel into low spots and potholes or applying a long continuous layer of gravel on a driveway or topsoil to a new lawn. This is a powerful time saving feature, and it is accomplished without the use of hydraulics!
Electric Brakes - Includes Brake Controller
With safety in mind, the Workman XL trailer features electric brakes to provide the stopping power you need to control big loads. It even includes a brake/tail light. ATVs / UTVs are now tackling bigger jobs and hauling larger loads than ever before, both down the trail and around the property. However, without brakes the operator may not be in control! The Workman XL atv trailer’s electric brakes are located on the front axle and are operated with the atv’s brake lever. The more pressure that is applied to the brake lever the more braking power will be applied; just like the atv braking system. A brake controller is included that enables the operator to adjust when the brakes on the trailer engage. Factory default is instant, but it may also be set to 1, 2, & 3 second delay. The controller is mounted inside a box secured to the frame of the trailer and trailer wiring is run through the frame of the trailer. The brakes are simply operated by your ATVs brake light system as the Workman XL trailer has a built in electric brake controller. The electronic braking system is not “out-of-the-box” compatible with a small number of ATVs. We offer optional parts and tech support to make most all machines compatible.
Brake Light & Tail Light
It is comforting to know that if you do get caught in dusty conditions on the trail or are riding or working into the evening hours, the Workman Trailer has a large and bright tail light to keep you visible. Even more than that, it is a dual element brake light that brightens when the brake is applied so those traveling behind you know you are slowing or stopping. This is a major advancement in safety for rugged off-road atv trailers / atv wagons.
4 Wheel Independent Torsion Bar Suspension & High Speed Bearings
The Workman XL ATV / UTV utility dump trailer features four wheel independent torsion bar suspension and huge 25″ tires that allow the trailer to float over the roughest terrain imaginable. This is no wimpy and unstable “walking beam” suspension. True four wheel independent torsion bar suspension axles allow each wheel to be independently suspended. One tire can go up while the other tire can go down. Each axle is rated at 800 lbs. and combined with the weight of the unit they allow safe hauling of 1,100 lbs. of cargo. The GVWR for this trailer is 1,600 lbs. The atv trailer is also equipped with high speed tapered roller bearings and the spindle is over an inch thick with a true hub bolted on to a 2″ thick axle. All this means you have a rugged and dependable suspension system that can take on whatever rough terrain your ATV or UTV can handle. It also means tires will stay in better contact with the ground, for better control at higher (responsible) speeds down the trail. This is one serious off-road atv dump / utility trailer! You simply won’t find a better suspension system on a utility dump trailer for atv. Period.
Massive Tires | 25in x 12in x 9in 4PR
The Workman atv dump trailer rides upon massive 25″ tires. These are the largest tires available for any pull-behind ATV dump trailer. They are low pressure 25″ x 12″ x 9″ 4PR tires that can handle heavy loads, absorb rough terrain and provide excellent ground clearance. In fact, the Workman trailer has an full 11″ ground clearance to crawl over just about anything in your path. The tires are rated to handle 580 lbs each at 14 psi (2,320 lbs. total). Due to their size, these tires allow an incredible amount of “Float” over soft or muddy terrain, even under heavy load! Now the operator can haul a load of firewood or a small round bail across the pasture with minimal to no disturbance to the ground! Even pull the firewood right across the lawn up to the house with no worries. On the trail, easily ford through low-lying areas, shallow water and soft areas with confidence! The atv trailer is also equipped with high speed tapered roller bearings and the spindle is over an inch thick with a true hub bolted on to a 2″ thick axle.
Welded Steel Dump Bed | 22.8 cu. ft. - 14ga (Struck Rated - Heap For More Capacity)
The dump bed of the Workman ATV utility trailer is constructed of fully welded 14 gauge steel and is completely powder coated along with extra reinforced welds and supports where it is needed. This is one strong dump bed that is ready to work hard around the property.
D-Ring For Tie-Downs
For convenience and safety the ABI Workman ATV Trailer comes standard with 4 “D-Ring” tie-downs. They are coated in order to not damage the powder coating or clang on the side of the trailer. Supply your own fasteners, ropes, straps, etc to keep your tall lighter loads from shifting or falling out of the trailer.
Heavy Duty Frame
The frame of the Workman ATV Dump trailer is constructed of 2″ x 2″ heavy duty steel. This frame is designed for extreme durability in the harshest conditions.

Options
Side Panel Extensions
The rugged metal side panel extensions triple the trailer’s volume (not payload) for light materials such as leaves, brush, and gear. Includes a panel for each of the four sides. Rear tailgate panel includes a latch for easy opening. Dimensions: 73″L x 45″W x 26″H, Weight: 70lbs (Comes with assembly hardware & instructions).
Wireless Dump - Transmitter / Receiver (Complete System)
The wireless dump upgrade works with any Workman XL trailer. Now you can dump from anywhere within about 100 ft range of the trailer. No need to walk back to the trailer after you release the tailgate pins. Also, ideal for precision dump control as the operator can stand near the back of the trailer to visually see the material being dumped. Also great when a stubborn load sticks to the trailer bed. Our wireless system has 2 key chain, all weather sealed, remote controllers for use with multiple tow vehicles or multiple operators at the same job site. Easy to install complete kit with everything you need.
Controller Wiring Kit (For Second Tow Vehicle)
If you need to have more than one tow vehicle operate the trailer brakes or use the electric lift on the Workman XL, this kit provides everything you need to wire a second vehicle.
Stake Pockets (D.I.Y. Sidewall Extension Mounts)
Stake pockets enable you to mount “do-it-yourself” wooden sidewall extensions. Use these pockets to secure your own sidewall extensions that you custom build to suit your own needs. The pocket has 2 pre-drilled holes for mounting to the sidewall of the trailer. The owner must drill through the 14 Ga. steel of the sidewall and secure the bracket as needed. Mounting hardware is provided. The pocket is designed to receive a 1″ x 2″ piece of lumber. It is common for 6 pockets to be used a trailer. 2 right side, 2 left side, 2 front…some even add 2 to the tailgate. Below is a example of 1 of many possible ways to use the stake pockets. The side panels shown are not included or available for purchase, but you could build your own.
Positive Ground Relay (Required For CanAm & Ranger)
The electric braking system of the Workman XL is not “out-of-the-box” compatible with a small number of ATVs. Because the Workman XL has it’s own brake controller onboard, all it needs from the ATV to trigger the trailer brakes is an electrical signal. Some ATVs send the wrong signal that causes the brakes not to function. To correct this, for the vast majority of ATVs, ABI has created an option for the trailers called the “Positive Ground Relay”. Any “Positive Ground” electrical system will need this option for the brakes to work. This is a required option for CanAm and Polaris Ranger vehicles.
Tire Wheel Combo (Spare or Replacement)
Don’t allow your work or adventure to be stopped with a flat tire! Add confidence and security with a matching spare tire and wheel combo assembly. This is not a donut spare, but the a matching replacement to that which came on the trailer. The tires are not for highway use. Don’t forget to add an optional spare tire mounting kit if you want your tire/wheel combo to mount to the tongue of your trailer. Tire mounting kit, tools and jack not included.
Spare Tire Mounting Kit
This spare tire mounting kit secures a tire and wheel combo (sold separately) to the front of the trailer frame for secure and out of the way storage of a spare tire. Enjoy the peace of mind of knowing a flat tire won’t stop you on the trail or at the back of your property. Bring a spare tire along for the ride, yet don’t lose any dump bed capacity! Spare tire mounting kit attaches to the trailer tongue of Workman Trailer.

This tool is invaluable for landscaping/ camping/ and many more situations. I have hauled and dumped gravel, mulch, boulders, DG, dirt, sand etc. etc. I have yet to push this trailer beyond its limits, and am happy EVERY time I hitch it up. It tows smoothly over ANY terrain and dumps with ease as you drive to spread your material. Would recommend this tool to anyone looking for a multi-purpose ATV/UTV trailer. Absolutely excellent product, and customer service from the entire ABI team!
Harry Hilgenberg –
The trailer is what they say it is. It’s heavy duty and will help you get the job done, and makes jobs easier to get job done faster. ABI was great about working with me to get my actuator problem fixed. They trerated me with respect. They deserve 20 stars and I will be a customer for life. Thank you ABI!

One Hellava Work Horse!! I’ve loaded this unit with gravel, wood, construction debris, you name it…it’s been in it!! My only complaint is it came from the factory with a tweak in the frame, somewhat noticeable but not a deal breaker. I’ve loaded the top with 35 pieces of 1/2″ sheetrock, and drove around back and unloaded…it saved me so much hand work and time!! Thanks ABI!
Lindse Paholski (store manager) –
