Help ID My Backpack Dredge/Highbanker Combo

[alienbogey]

After many years of wanting, today I scored a 1.5" backpack dredge/highbanker combo. Small problem: I don't know who manufactured it.

It's a 1.5" unit with a Honda WX10 engine and a WX10A4 pump. The engine/pump is mounted to a green backpack framer that has shoulder straps and a pack belt.

The best way to describe the sluice and header box is with pictures:


I'd like to obtain an operator's manual for it, but need to find out who made it.

Thanks in advance.

i dont have a clue asto who made it but it looks really nice.the operation of any dredge sluice is kinda the same. run the engine while dredgeing about 1/2-3/4 set the sluice up pertanant to the size of gold that is in the area.to trap the smaller gold you dont want much drop on the sluice and youll probly end up picking gravels/rocks out of the sluice to keep it clear. dont hog any material and keep the water flowing to keep the sluice clear as you can.once you hit a good prospect then you could bring in a bigger/different peice of equipment to keep going.good luck!
