# CUT OUT


Heavy crane lift special-ists, Havator of Tornio, Finland, maintains a heavy booking schedule for one of its oldest, more versatile and most reliable cranes in its fleet, a 2001-vin-tage Terex CC 2800 lattice boom crawler crane. Often the 600-tonne (660-US-ton) crane moves from job to job, never receiving a re-prieve at the lifting com-pany’s home office.

Last lifting season is a prime example of just how much business Havator books for the CC 2800 crane. Over a relatively short period of time, the company moved the ver-satile Terex crane three times, logging over 350 km (217 mi), for three very dif-ferent applications.

Havator first used the crawler crane in an indus-trial application, changing 62-tonne (68-US-ton) pro-cess washers at a paper mill in Pietarsaari, Finland. Crew members then loaded the crane on 15 trailers, plus three heavy haulers

for the crane superstruc-ture and crawlers, and led the convoy 250 km (155 mi) north over a three-day journey to Oulu for chang-ing electric plant filters at the Toppila Power Station. The third leg of the trip saw the crane moving another 100 km (62 mi) north by land and then barged to an island for a windmill proj-ect to switch out turbine gears.

“The CC 2800 crane is fast to assemble and disas-semble, quite easy to trans-port and flexible enough to be used on many differ-ent projects,” says Logis-tics Manager for Havator, Matti Simola. “We use it for industrial and windmill projects, but the lumber industry is where we use it most. This is just one of 60 Terex cranes we have in our fleet,” he continues.Low Load & Confined

By far the most chal-lenging of the three proj-ects was the power station job. The four, 20-m (65.6-ft) tall, 20-year-old filters

offered some excitement for Havator’s lifting crew and the CC 2800 crane. “The new filters weigh ap-proximately 200 t (220 US tons) each,” explains Si-mola, “but the weight and condition of the old filters can be a bit of a mystery.”

One of the largest peat-fired power stations in the world, the Toppila Power Station generates 210 MW of electric power and 340 MW of thermal power. The four massive air filters pull from the airstream the par-ticulate matter generated by the peat-burning process. The filters are changed on a 20-year cycle. “The filters are typically covered with dust, rust and other items, which can increase the fil-ters’ weight,” comments Simola.

The 600-t (660-US-ton) capacity Terex crane was up to the challenge posed by the unknown. Havator configured the crane with its heavy boom segments, constructed the 42 m (138 ft) long main boom and

added a 30-m (98-ft) luff-ing jib to reach the required 65-m (213-ft) hook height for filter removal.

To help boost the crane’s lift capacities, Ha-vator’s crew added 160 t (176 US tons) of counter-weight to the main body of the CC 2800 crawler crane and another 275 t (303 US tons) onto the variable-radius Superlift tray. “We used the Terex Superlift wagon with wheels, which allows the tray to smoothly move back and forth as the crane works,” says Simola. “This helps to boost lift ca-pacities as well as efficien-cies.”

Since space was at a premium at the electric plant site, Havator chose the short boom/jib con-figuration and worked at a relatively narrow radius, ranging from 24- to 27-m (79- to 89-ft). “At the mini-mum radius in this con-figuration, the CC 2800 crane offers a lift capacity of up to 227 t (250 US tons) and 205.5 t (226.5 US-ton) capacity at the maximum working radius, so we built in extra lift capacity to ac-count for the possibility of additional weight with the used filters,” adds Simola.

Once on site, Havator’s

rigging crew took just 2.5 days to set up the crane. This included additional steps required to meet the strict 15 t/m2 (1.5 US-ton/ft2) ground load pressure

limit. Even though the crane’s weight is spread over its large crawler tracks’ 31-m2 (332-ft2) area, the CC 2800 crane

John was born and raised in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A true adventurer he moved to Canada with his wife and two young sons in 1976. Shortly thereafter he started sell-ing Powerscreen equip-ment in Ontario, where to this day his old customers still ask about him.

John moved west to Brit-ish Columbia in 1984 to set up his own Powerscreen dealership (Powerscreen of Canada Western Ltd.).

John was a true pioneer in the mobile screening and crushing market and was the first to start sell-ing track mounted screen-ing and crushing equip-ment in B.C. and Alberta.

John was also a found-ing member of the B.C. Stone, Sand & Gravel As-sociation, formerly the Aggregate Producers As-sociation and a strong ad-vocate for the aggregate industry in B.C.

An avid musician John had a passion for playing drums and enjoyed per-forming with his classic rock band as well as with the local Chilliwack Ro-tary Club band.

John was also a collec-tor of classic British cars and was always keeping an eye out for a gem that needed polishing, espe-cially Jaguars.

A proud Rotarian John also worked with his local

Chilliwack club assisting with their many fundrais-ing activities that sup-ported not only his local community but also their many causes throughout the world.

Most of all John cher-ished his family and loved spending time with them, whether holidaying in Mexico, skiing at Hemlock or relaxing by the oceans-ide in Gibsons. He espe-cially enjoyed spending time with his seven grand-children.

John has left a last-ing legacy in the equip-ment industry in B.C. with Foreman Equipment Ltd., which is run by his two sons Adam and Ryan and a long time staff of employees that shared his vision of growth and outstanding service to the industry.

John Foreman was a pioneer in the aggregate industry in Canada. Right from his first days of busi-ness in BC, John was a tre-mendous supporter of the Supply Post and we were deeply saddened to hear of his sudden passing. We wish the Foreman family our condolences. b

could not reach the rela-tively low load limit for the job.

“We had to strictly ad-here to the ground load pressure limit, because of the risk of damaging the many pipes and ca-nals running under the ground,” explains Simo-la. “We placed multiple special kinds of pontoon plates under the lifting/driving area. They are ap-proximately 6.5-m-long by 3.5-m-wide by 0.6-m-thick (21.3- x 11.5- x 2.0-ft).” For contractors that often face applica-tions with low ground load pressure restrictions, Terex offers 1.8-m (4.9-ft) wide crawler tracks, so weight can be disbursed over a wider area.

Over the next week and a half, Havator’s two

crane operators, supervi-sor and radioman used the Terex CC 2800 crawler crane to perform the eight major picks – four to re-move the old filters and four to install the new – and several minor lifts. “We had to carry the load of the old filters over a dis-tance, so it was necessary to use the crawler crane,” says Simola. The used fil-ters were placed on a spe-cial Havator trailer that carried them over to the assigned storage location, approximately 300 m (984 ft) from the lift area.

The CC 2800 crane performed flawlessly re-moving and replacing the 20-m-long by 10-m-deep by 20-m-high (65.6- x 32.8- x 65.6-ft) filters. “Everything went well,” says Simola. “We worked according to plan and completed the job

on time.” Then the crews quickly dismantled the crane, loaded it back onto the 15 trailers and three heavy trailers, and moved it to Kemi for the windmill project.

After the Kemi windmill project and an extended pe-riod away from the office, the CC 2800 crane made its way back to Havator’s To-rino yard for a scheduled inspection. “We had Clem-ens Marx (Field Technician for Terex Cranes) visit our office to conduct a thor-ough, 10-year inspection of our CC 2800 crane,” men-tions Simola. “Based on his findings, we renovated the winches, boom sections, engine, sheaves, bearings and pendants, and it’s now operating like a new crane.” b

GOT A BEAST OF A JOB?


Since entering the ex-cavator market in 1987, Mustang has focused on providing the right mix of compact excavators for the market. The brand new addition to Mustang’s compact excavator line, the 550Z, enhances their North American excavator offering with its 5.5 metric ton size. This new model provides excellent perfor-mance while lowering fuel consumption and operat-ing costs. The new 550Z is equipped with a 47.6 hp (35.5 kW) Yanmar Tier IV-certified, turbocharged diesel engine which fea-tures an electronic throttle for precise control. Cost savings are made possible with the ECO mode and auto deceleration features. When activated by the flip of a switch inside the cab, ECO mode will reduce the engine speed by 10% without sacrificing power, while auto deceleration decreases the engine speed to idle after four seconds without hydraulic move-

ment. These two features provide a combined result of 20% reduction in fuel consumption. The opera-tor’s station has many fea-tures to enhance produc-tivity and controllability. The controls on the 550Z include a proportional auxiliary hydraulic rocker switch which enhances attachment options. This allows the operator to ad-just the hydraulic flow for optimal attachment perfor-mance.

The operator can easily select standard ISO or an optional backhoe control pattern with a turn of a mechanical lever. A boom offset swing of 68 degrees in both directions allows for digging a square hole without repositioning the machine. An integrated digital display located in a highly-visible area features recordable maintenance history with adjustable time intervals and remind-ers.

The display unit also records hours used for the

past 90 days and can be monitored without starting the engine.

An angle blade with float and bolt-on cutting edge is a factory installed option. Using the rocker switch on the blade lever, the hydraulic angle blade can be angled 25 degrees to push material aside as the machine moves forward, eliminating the need for repetitive repo-sitioning. The blade can be simultaneously angled and raised or lowered to reduce the amount of time backfilling. The operator’s station offers multiple er-gonomic and convenience features.

A 4-way adjustable seat offers custom height, weight and backrest po-sitions with a retract-able belt. An optional cab enclosure, with heat or heat/air-conditioning systems, provides com-fort and protection in ex-treme weather conditions. The front window can be stowed overhead for ad-ditional air flow when weather permits, and also increases visibility and communication with by-standers when needed.

access is made possible by large swing-out doors on the back and right-hand side of the machine. These compartments re-veal the entire engine and daily maintenance points; radiator, oil cooler, bat-tery and fuses. Remove the cab floor panels, kick plates and tip the seat back to reveal the starter, alternator, fuses, control module and control valve. A left-side front panel re-veals the control pattern selector and the left-side rear panel is a handy lock-

able toolbox for operator necessities.Applications

The Mustang 550Z zero-tail-swing compact excavator is positioned in the North American market to meet the needs of construction, utili-ties, telecommunication, landscaping and rental. Mustang ZeroTail-Swing Compact Excavators ex-cel in applications such as grading and excavating, trenching, digging, demo-lition and recycling, ca-bling and light utility con-struction. Their compact

nature and zero-tail-swing design make them ideal in situations where space is limited.Interview

“The new 550Z zero-tail-swing excavator from Mustang provides opera-tors with additional dig depth and power with-out sacrificing economi-cal fuel consumption,” says Nathan Ryan, Prod-uct Manager for Mustang Compact Excavators. “It’s electronically-controlled Tier IV emissions-certified Yanmar engine has fuel conserving features that

result in up to 20% fuel savings. The 550Z comes standard with the features our customers enjoy on the rest of the line-up, in-cluding proportional aux-iliary hydraulic controls, digital display, Power-A-Tach and control pattern selection valve. Optional features include a time-saving angle dozer blade and a factory-installed hydraulic thumb, which is an extremely useful fea-ture for landscaping and demolition.” b

Now in production for Peterbilt’s flagship on-highway Model 579 and vocational Model 567 is the RollTek protection system integrated with the pre-mium Atlas II driver seats, Peterbilt Motors Company recently announced.

“The RollTek safety sys-tem helps protect drivers in the event of a rollover,” said Scott Newhouse, Pe-terbilt Chief Engineer. “A sensor located under the seat constantly monitors the angular position of the vehicle and activates when it detects an imminent rollover. When activated, RollTek deploys side-roll airbags, tightens the safety belt and lowers the seat to help reduce injury risk and maximize safety for opera-tors.”

The Atlas II seat with the RollTek system is a fac-tory-installed option fully integrated with the truck’s electrical and air systems.

“Peterbilt continues to expand the safety features

on its vehicles through initial design – such as panoramic visibility – and through complementary systems, such as our new RollTek offering,” said Newhouse. He noted that Peterbilt is the only truck manufacturer to offer both front air-disc brakes and electronic stability control as standard equipment on its Class 8 conventional trucks.

Other standard, safety-oriented features on the Model 579 and 567 include LED lamps for all marker lights; staircase-step design for cab entry and egress; an impact-resistant stain-less steel grille reinforced by a hood protection bar; a hood blowdown preven-tion lock; and industry-leading forward lighting. Several optional safety fea-tures include rear air-disc brakes, collision mitigation systems and high intensity discharge headlamps. b

Momentum Rental and Sales, an Atlas Copco deal-er in Port Lavaca, Texas, opened two new facilities — one in Corpus Christi and another in Richwood, Texas. With the new loca-tions, Momentum extends Atlas Copco’s equipment and support offering to the growing petrochemical and refinery customers in those areas.

“Our mission is to be there for our custom-ers through every phase of their projects with high-quality equipment backed by exceptional customer service,” said Joey Barrett, Momentum Rental and Sales chief executive officer. “Our two new facilities help us accomplish this mis-sion by making us acces-sible to more customers, particularly in the grow-ing petrochemical and refinery markets.”

The new facilities bring Momentum’s number of stores to three. The compa-ny rents, sells and services

a wide range of new and used equipment, including Atlas Copco portable air compressors, generators, handheld tools and light compaction equipment in addition to lifts and earth moving machines.

Barrett has more than 15 years of experience in the rental industry, which helps him build strong re-lationships with custom-ers. Momentum Rental and Sales has been serving Texas for three years and became an Atlas Copco dealer in 2013.

“We chose to work with Atlas Copco because they offer a wide breadth of rug-ged and reliable products, which is critical in this in-dustry,” Barrett said.

Atlas Copco designs its equipment to withstand harsh conditions, from the yard to the jobsite. For example, many of Atlas Copco’s 90- to 1,800-cfm compressors feature the company’s exclusive poly-ethylene HardHat canopy. The canopy lasts longer

and retains a higher resale value since it will not cor-rode and resists dents and fading.

“Contractors depend on their equipment day in and day out, which is why reliability and durability are a key priority for all of our products, whether they are rented or purchased,” said Clint Blair, Atlas Copco business develop-ment manager, oil and gas. “And offering contractors a complete breadth of equip-ment that requires minimal servicing gives them peace of mind when it comes to their bottom line and meet-ing tight deadlines.”

Barrett added that At-las Copco’s rental-focused equipment and full breadth of products allows the company to serve nearly any customer for any ap-plication.

“Having a large variety of reliable equipment is what helps us serve grow-ing markets and enhances our productivity, trust with customers, and ultimately our success,” Barrett said. “We look forward to grow-ing relationships with new customers and our mar-kets.” b

After years of design, field trials and customer feedback, John Deere intro-duces its first-ever 4-track tractor, adding to its exten-sive line of high horsepow-er 9R Series wheeled and 9RT Series 2-track tractors. The four new 9RX Tractor models – which range from 470 to 620 engine horse-power – feature a large, robust undercarriage and

track system engineered to provide superior power, durability, and improved ride quality, especially when handling large imple-ments in the field.

Jerry Griffith, John Deere product market-ing manager, 6-9 Fam-ily Tractors, says the new 9RX Series Tractors offer customers three distinct advantages compared to

similar 4-track models. “The 9RX has a superior undercarriage with a posi-tive-drive track system that effectively delivers power to the ground; it features the outstanding comfort of our CommandView III cab with a new cab suspen-sion system for improved ride quality; and it is de-signed with integrated per-formance features already

available on our 9 Family of tractors.”

These other features include built-in, fully inte-grated AutoTrac guidance and JDLink Connect infor-mation management, the e18 Transmission with Ef-ficiency Manager, and in-creased hydraulic flow for optimal field performance. “The 9RX has been de-signed with our customers in mind to provide the per-formance, manoeuvrabil-ity, comfort and reliabil-ity to operate large, heavy equipment under a wide variety of soil conditions and terrain,” Griffith adds.

The 9RX Tractors fea-ture either a John Deere PowerTech PSS 13.5L en-gine (9470RX and 9520RX models) or Cummins QSX15 engine (9570RX and 9620RX models) to provide the torque and power need-ed to handle the tough-est field conditions. The engine powers a large di-ameter drive sprocket and drive lugs that, along with optimally placed idlers and mid-rollers work to deliver exceptional horsepower to the ground with less track slippage.

The tractors are equipped with rugged, puncture-resistant Camso

Duradrive 3500 and Camso Duradrive 6500 (with Du-rabuilt technology) rubber tracks for optimal load-bearing performance in the field. The track belts are designed for increased life and durability, and are

available in 30-inch and 36-inch widths.

Like its 9R/9RT siblings, the new 4-track tractors are available with the re-sponsive, smooth-shifting e18 Transmission with Ef-

ficiency Manager for auto-mated control of the engine and transmission. This industry-leading transmis-sion responds quickly and automatically in the field for improved performance and increased fuel savings.

The tractors also feature an articulated steering sys-tem and the optional Ac-tive Command Steering™ (ACS), which improves manoeuvrability in the field and line-holding abil-ity at transport speeds.

For improved ride qual-ity, the 9RX tractors are designed with a mechani-cal Parallel Plane Four-Bar Linkage system with

4 inches of vertical travel. This helps to control move-ment and isolates the cab and operator from sudden impacts and vibration.

The intuitive, easy-to-use Generation 4 CommandCenter with custom-built pages and green-on-green integrated technologies provides fin-gertip control of tractor and implement functions.

“We’ve also redesigned the hydraulic system in the new 9RX, which includes up to eight SCVs and deliv-ers a standard 58 gallons per minute of flow, or an optional 115 gallons per minute of flow. It easily meets the speed and high

hydraulic power demands of the large implements our customers often use in the field,” Griffith says.

“The 9RX brings to the market John Deere’s 20 years of track-tractor ex-pertise and field knowledge gained from our popular 8RT and 9RT tractors,” he adds. “Customers tell us the 9RX has the most comfortable ride, is easier to manoeuvre in the field, is easier to maintain and service, and more impor-tantly, provides the power they need to get field work done faster and more effec-tively.” b

Terex is pleased to in-troduce its newly-rede-signed RL-4 light tower. Already known for its reli-able and cost-effective per-formance across jobsites varying from building and highway construction to oil field applications and sporting events, the newly-redesigned Terex RL-4 light tower has significant im-provements that make it an even stronger performer.

“Our RL-4 redesign fo-cused on providing greater efficiency and improved performance for our light tower customers,” said Karen Stash, Senior Di-rector, Global Marketing and Product Management, Terex Aerial Work Plat-forms (AWP). “By pairing the vertical mast and larger 45 gallon fuel tank with the ability to get 17 units on a trailer, customers will see the benefits from day one.”

The Terex RL-4 light tower is 23.4 ft (7.13 m) in height with a width of 59 in (150 cm), and a stowed length of 85 in (215 cm). It

has a dry weight of 1,461 lbs. (663 kg) and has four metal halide 1,000 W lamps. High density poly-ethylene covers eliminate corrosion and dents, and vertical mast with an in-ternal mast brake offers 359 degree non-continuous tower rotation and a re-tractable mast cable.

The light tower’s new vertical mast dramatically cuts set up time by using only one winch for quick operation. Being able to stow the mast on top of the unit instead of hang-ing over the end reduces the potential that the unit will be damaged in transit. The light tower also offers a smaller footprint which lets you haul up to 17 units on a 48 ft trailer instead of the 10 units you were lim-ited to with the previous model, resulting in signifi-cant cost savings. “We’re able to reduce the footprint thanks to the vertical mast and the added benefit of the foldable tongue,” said Marie Engstrom, Associate

Product Manager, Terex AWP. “This allows the Terex RL-4 light tower to be loaded on a truck side-ways, across the truck, in-stead of down the truck’s length.”

Previously, the Terex RL-4 light tower had a 30-gallon tank and provid-ed approximately 60-hours of run time. The new RL-4 light tower has a 45-gallon tank and an efficient en-gine which extends the run time to as long as 90 hours. The RL-4 light tower also has an optional autostart feature which uses a photo-cell or timer to turn on the unit automatically and run when you need it without having to manually start it. “By increasing the run time by up to 50 percent, the unit can provide light up to seven nights on one tank of fuel. That’s a tremendous efficiency,” said Engstrom.

The new Terex RL-4 has a Kohler KDW1003 3-cyl-inder diesel, liquid-cooled engine with a 6.0kW pow-er configuration. “This engine is considered to be one of the most popular workhorses in the indus-try and now it’s part of the Terex solution,” said Eng-strom. Kohler has worked to make this engine quieter with less vibration. Terex and Kohler worked to-gether to provide the RL-4 with a larger oil pan so it can go about 500 hours between oil changes. Com-bine the Terex service team with over 2,000 Kohler parts and service locations worldwide and service to reduce downtime is never far away.

The Terex RL-4 light tower is now in produc-tion and available world-wide. b

The Ontario Hot Mix Producers Association (OHMPA) recognized the best and brightest at its annual Fall Asphalt Semi-nar held on December 2nd at the brand new Uni-versal Eventspace Confer-ence and Event Centre in Vaughan. Four asphalt plants received the 2015 Trillium Awards and eight plants were recertified.

Introduced in 2002, the Trillium Award rec-ognizes the best of the best in the production of asphalt. Recipients must meet exceptionally high standards in seven categories which are ap-pearance, operations, en-vironmental, safety, per-mitting and compliance, community relations and industry participation. The four newly awarded plants are Miller North-ern Limited – Boeing 300 Portable Drum Plant, Miller Northwest Lim-ited – Cedar Rapid 8-28 Portable Drum Plant, C. Villeneuve Construction

Co. Ltd. – Astec Plant (in Hearst, ON), Dufferin Construction – London Asphalt Plant. Trillium Award status is granted for a three-year period at which time the plant may reapply for recerti-fication. Asphalt plants named for recertification were Miller Northeast Limited – Terex Drum, Miller Paving Limited – Markham, Richmond Hill and Brechin Asphalt Plants, Miller Group Nor-way Astec Double Drum Plant, Smith Construc-tion CMI 300, Huron (Chatham) Asphalt Plant and Miller Northwest Limited – Sandy Beach Drum Plant.

“OHMPA producer members work hard to ensure that they are good neighbours and stewards of the environment,” said OHMPA executive director Vince Aurilio. “The Tril-lium award was created to recognize those plants that go beyond the ‘gold’ standard already required

by industry regulations. To date, 68 plants have earned the Trillium Award and 47 have been recertified. That speaks highly of our mem-bers and Ontario’s asphalt industry.”

Also presented was the Dr Norman McLeod Award for Innovation in Road Building. The award, named in honour of Dr McLeod, Canada’s most accomplished asphalt in-novator, celebrates the pursuit of innovation in the hot mix asphalt industry. This year it was awarded to the late Keith Davidson, who was the Director of Technology and Product Development for McAs-phalt Industries Limited. The award was accepted by John Carrick Jr., presi-dent of McAsphalt. Mr Da-vidson was heralded for his dedication to the science of asphalt research and engi-neering support which has led to the introduction of several asphalt emulsion technologies in Canada.

OHMPA congratulates this year’s award winners and heartily thanks them for their passion and com-mitment to quality asphalt pavements. b

Fourth quarter 2015 EBITDA was $86 million versus EBITDA of $66 mil-lion in the same period one year ago. This year’s fourth quarter included $69 mil-lion in restructuring-related and impairment charges; $40 million in pre-existing warranty adjustments; and $14 million in debt refi-nancing fees and costs. As a result, adjusted fourth quarter 2015 EBITDA was $209 million, equating to a fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.4 per-cent.

Revenues in the quar-ter declined 17 percent compared to fourth quar-ter 2014. Higher Class 6/7 medium and bus char-

geouts in the company’s Core (U.S. and Canada) market were more than off-set by reduced volumes in the company’s export and global operations, lower Class 8 truck chargeouts in its Core market, and Navi-star’s exit earlier this year from the Blue Diamond Truck joint venture.

“We delivered on our adjusted EBITDA end-of year run rate target of 8 percent or better, thanks to a favourable mix of truck sales and record parts prof-itability in our core North America market in the fourth quarter,” said Troy A. Clarke, Navistar presi-dent and chief executive officer. “We also benefited

from our continued focus on cost management across our operations, marked by a $74 million improvement in structural costs in the quarter.”

Navistar finished the fourth quarter 2015 with $1.01 billion in manufac-turing cash, cash equiva-lents and marketable secu-rities.

During the quarter, the company announced a long-term agreement with General Motors Co. (GM) to develop and assemble medium-duty, conven-tional cab Class 4/5 com-mercial vehicles, allow-ing Navistar to strengthen its product line-up. The trucks, which are sched-uled to go into production in 2018 and will be built at Navistar’s Springfield, Ohio plant, will be jointly developed using Navistar’s expertise in commercial vehicles and manufactur-ing capabilities, and GM’s commercial components and engines.

As for full-year 2015 results, Navistar reported a net loss of $184 million, or $2.25 per diluted share, versus a net loss of $619 million, or $7.60 per di-luted share, for fiscal year 2014. Fiscal year 2015 ad-justed EBITDA was $494 million versus $306 million adjusted EBITDA for 2014. Revenue for fiscal year 2015 was $10.1 billion, compared to $10.8 billion in fiscal year 2014.

Chargeouts in the com-pany’s Core North America market increased by 3,500 units, or 6 percent, in 2015, reflecting an 18-percent increase in Class 6/7 me-dium trucks, a 10-percent increase in school buses, and a 7-percent increase in Class 8 severe service, partially offset by a 4-per-cent decline in Class 8 heavy truck. Total mar-ket share for Class 6-8 and bus for the year was 16 percent. Operationally, the company reduced its total costs by more than $300 million in 2015, including $114 million in structural cost reductions, with the remainder coming from reduced material and lo-gistics spending and lower manufacturing costs.

“For the third consecu-

tive year, we generated around $200 million in adjusted EBITDA improve-ment, and we expect this improvement trend to con-tinue in 2016,” Clarke said. “We are building the best products we’ve ever built, and we are winning back customers. We have iden-tified and begun imple-menting actions to further lower our material spend and structural costs, while driving greater efficiencies in our manufacturing op-erations. As a result, we expect to build on our 2015 progress, and our goal is to achieve profitability and be free cash flow positive in 2016.”The company provided the following guidance:• Forecasts retail deliver-

ies of Class 6-8 trucks and buses in the Unit-ed States and Canada will be in the range of 350,000 units to 380,000 units for fiscal year 2016.

• Full-year 2016 revenues to be between $9.5 - $10.0 billion.

• Full-year 2016 adjusted EBITDA of $600 - $700 million.

the fourth quarter 2015, the Truck segment record-ed a loss of $36 million, compared with a year-ago fourth quarter loss of $40 million. This year’s fourth quarter results also reflect $26 million in restructur-ing charges, primarily re-lated to reduction-in-force initiatives initiated at the end of the quarter, as well as $40 million in pre-ex-isting warranty charges, while last year’s results included $27 million in restructuring related charges and $11 million in pre-existing warranty ben-efits. The year-over-year improvement was driven by cost management ac-tivities, favourable mix in its Core market, and improved margins, which

more than offset the low-er chargeouts in its Core market.

For the fiscal year 2015, the Truck segment recorded a loss of $141 million, compared with a fiscal year 2014 loss of $380 million. The year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by a favourable shift in product mix in Core market, im-proved margins and lower structural costs, partially offset by an increase in used truck reserves and higher accelerated depre-ciation charges related to the company’s exit of the foundry business.

Parts Segment — For the fourth quarter 2015, the Parts segment recorded record profits of $163 mil-lion, compared to a year-ago fourth quarter profit of $150 million. The increase was primarily due to stron-ger margins in its Core commercial markets.

For the fiscal year 2015, the Parts segment recorded record profits of $592 mil-lion, compared to a fiscal year 2014 profit of $528 million. The 12-percent increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, margin improvements in its commercial markets and cost-reduction initia-tives, partially offset by the performance decline in its Blue Diamond Parts busi-ness due to the decrease of serviceable units in opera-tion.

A University of Wiscon-sin–Madison engineer’s so-lution for streamlining the construction of skyscrap-ers is having a skyscraper moment in one of the most seismically active regions of the country.

All coupling beams in the 1.5 million-square-foot Lincoln Square Expansion —which includes luxury condos, a hotel, dining, retail and office space in two 450-foot towers in the heart of Seattle suburb Bel-levue, Washington — are made of fibre-reinforced concrete using a unique design co-developed by Gustavo Parra-Montesi-nos, professor of civil and environmental engineer-ing at UW-Madison.

These concrete coupling beams span doorways and windows, helping walls with such openings in them to function as a single structural unit, while bol-stering the building as a whole against earthquakes.

Traditionally, coupling beams are reinforced with a labyrinth of rebar, adding a great deal of time, cost and complexity to the con-struction process.

“Placement of the rebar in these link beams can sometimes control the con-struction schedule,” says Cary Kopczynski, whose Seattle-based firm is the structural engineering com-pany for the project. “Most of the west coast of the U.S., of course, is a high-ly seismic area, so when you’re building concrete structures, they require a lot of intricate rebar to car-ry the seismic loads.”

As an alternative to ex-cessive amounts of rebar,

Parra-Montesinos’ solution incorporates steel fibres into the concrete mix, and he and University of Michi-gan collaborator James K. Wight engineered that approach to create beams that equal or exceed the performance of cumber-some rebar designs, yet simplify and speed up the construction process.

The first real-world implementation of the cou-pling beam solution oc-curred a few years back. Kopczynski incorporated the fibre-reinforced cou-pling beams into a portion of The Martin, a 255-foot, 23-story apartment build-ing completed in Seattle in 2013.

Kopczynski credits The Martin’s owner and devel-oper for taking a chance on a technology grounded in research, simulation and laboratory-scale testing, but not yet implemented in the field. “They were very interested in being innova-tive and embracing new technologies,” he says. “That project was viewed as being a huge success be-cause it reduced the level of uncertainty that existed prior to actually using it.”

This time around, the teams behind the Lincoln Square Expansion em-braced the coupling beam technology because of the overwhelmingly positive feedback they received from crews who worked with it on The Martin proj-ect, says Kopczynski.

“The reason we’re using the new coupling beams is that they’re faster, less ex-pensive, and reduce the po-tential for field mistakes,” he says. “With traditional

coupling beams, it’s very common to have placing mistakes in the field be-cause of all of the intrica-cy. Now, not only can we build the building faster and more simply, but we can reduce the potential for field errors.”

Because the new tech-nology is not yet included in the American Concrete Institute’s building code — which sets the agenda for the concrete construction industry and its regulators — both buildings have had to pass muster with outside peer reviewers engaged by local officials.

Parra-Montesinos hopes it will be included in the next edition of the code, which is due out in 2019.

“I think we’ve come up with a very robust de-sign,” he says. “We just need to be able to specify the minimum performance requirement for the fibre-reinforced concrete based on standard material tests.”

Currently, with fund-ing from the Charles Pan-kow Foundation and other industry partners, Parra-Montesinos and his stu-dents are studying other types of steel fibres incor-porated into the concrete in various quantities.

“Ultimately, we expect to establish a link between material behaviour and seismic performance of the coupling beam so that us-ers are not required to use the same fibre and in the same amounts as we used in our past research,” Par-ra-Montesinos says. “This is a required step to de-velop design provisions for the building code.”

His research emphasizes large-scale physical testing, an approach that is help-ing the construction world catch up to the promise of fibre-reinforced concrete. Kopczynski recognizes that potential, and he looks

forward to seeing the new coupling beams become more widely adopted in skyscraper construction.

However, he says, a greater payoff will occur when innovative struc-tural engineers like Parra-Montesinos develop ways to incorporate fibre-rein-forced concrete into other key building components.

“Then, we could poten-tially start reducing the reinforcement-bar require-ments throughout the en-tire core of the building, and that would have an impact in a very positive way on the way we build concrete buildings,” Kopc-zynski says. b

Global Operations Seg-ment — For the fourth quarter 2015, the Global Operations segment re-corded a loss of $27 mil-lion, compared to a year-ago fourth quarter loss of $56 million. The year-over-year improvement was pri-marily driven by on-going actions to lower the com-pany’s cost structure in its South American engine business, to offset the im-pact of the on-going down-turn in Brazil’s economy.

For the 2015 fiscal year, the Global Operations seg-ment recorded a loss of $67 million compared to a year-ago fiscal year loss of $274 million. Exclud-ing the impact of the prior year impairments of $149 million and current year restructuring costs in-

crease of $16 million, the Global Operations segment improved year-over-year performance by $74 mil-lion, primarily due to lower year-over-year manufactur-ing and structural costs.

Financial Services Seg-ment— For the fourth quarter 2015, the Financial Services segment recorded a profit of $26 million, equal to fourth quarter 2014 profit of $26 million.

For the fiscal year 2015, the Financial Services seg-ment recorded a profit of $98 million, comparable to a fiscal year 2014 profit of $97 million, as an increase in revenue and a decrease in the provision for loan losses were offset by lower interest income from inter-company loans. b

On behalf of Köster AG, Trittau-based Proschwitz GmbH used its Terex CTT 91-5 and CTT 161A-8 flat top tower cranes while helping build the new sev-en-story BOA VISTA office building in Hamburg.

The two Terex tower cranes spent about twelve months in view of the world-famous St. Pauli Landungsbrücken Piers in Hamburg while working under unique conditions. “Projects in urban down-town settings are always associated with special challenges, and that’s es-pecially the case when it comes to a big, lively city

like Hamburg,” explains Proschwitz GmbH Gen-eral Manager Detlev Pros-chwitz. Pressed for space, pressed for time

The first challenge was the lack of space around the areas where the two Terex tower cranes would be erected. In fact, just getting the cranes from Proschwitz’s headquarters in Trittau to the work site with 13 trucks was already a small logistical challenge despite the short distance of 35 kilometers – after all, cramped downtown areas are hardly the natural habi-tat of heavy goods vehicles.

Despite this and the limited space conditions at the ac-tual work sites, however, the Proschwitz team was able to erect the two cranes on time, with each one tak-ing only one day and three assembly technicians. “We didn’t have any more time available anyway, as we had to keep the necessary road closures to a mini-mum. That’s where the CTT cranes’ ease of erect-ing really came through for us,” Proschwitz emphasiz-es. And it is one of the key reasons why his company consistently relies on Terex products when it comes to tower cranes: The Pros-chwitz Group’s rental fleet features a total of over 100 flat top and hammerhead tower cranes – all Terex models. “The feature with the transfer masts that

As the days go by with no phone calls offering work in the Alberta oil-patch, Jared Park worries about how he’ll pay for his son’s leukemia medicine.

“It’s a struggle. You don’t know when or if you’re going to make it back to work. You just hope you get that call,” said Park as five-year-old Mason wriggled and bounced on the sofa in his tidy Truro, N.S., bungalow.

“For Mason, it’s im-portant because part of our drug plan covers the medicine for his chemo-therapy.”

The 30-year-old father of three is among a wave of East Coast workers who have returned home from the Western oilfields after a downturn in the economy. Many are hoping for higher hydrocarbon prices and a return to the West in 2016, but others have begun try-ing to seek a living closer to home.

Kerry Morash, a former provincial cabinet minis-ter, said rural parts of the Maritimes have been hard hit by the fall in the oil prices from about $95US to current levels of less than $40US.

Morash joined the mi-gration west after the pa-per mill near Liverpool, N.S., where he worked as a health-and-safety consul-tant closed several years ago. He was hired on con-tract at the Kearl oilsands project north of Fort Mc-Murray, Alta.

“There wasn’t a lot of work back home, and there certainly wasn’t a lot around Liverpool ... I was very fortunate to be able to go out there,” he said, re-calling his two-week shifts of 12 hours per day.

He said some main-tenance jobs continue to draw East Coast tradespeo-ple, but since the comple-tion of Kearl, the former Progressive Conservative politician said he couldn’t find another oilpatch job despite a resume that in-cluded a stint as Nova Sco-tia’s minister of labour and environment.

Gradually, he’s starting to hear about opportunities in the rural area of Nova Scotia where he lives. And he said he may be staying on the East Coast.

Some industries in the Maritimes, meanwhile, are using the opportunity to re-cruit skilled tradespeople to

work in their hometowns.The Halifax shipyard

has been recruiting work-ers from the West as it builds Arctic patrol ships for the federal government.

Spokeswoman Mary Keith said by early Decem-ber the Halifax site had 33 employees who had been working in Alberta, Brit-ish Columbia or Saskatch-ewan.

Some workers are re-training to begin fresh ca-reers that will keep them on the coast.

Twenty-three-year-old Jacob Stepaniak, who grew up in Margaree Valley, N.S., came home from Al-berta last year after work-ing intermittently in the West since 2011.

He returned to care for his 85-year-old grandfa-ther, who was ill with can-cer, and decided to stay home despite the attraction of salaries of over $90,000 a year in the oilpatch.

“You miss all those lit-tle things, the small-town way of life ... You run into someone here, you’re guar-anteed to strike up a con-versation,” he said. “You really miss that.”

Stepaniak is retraining in marine engineering tech-

nology at the Nova Scotia Community College and expecting to begin a life at sea, possibly in the off-shore oil sector.

He and his girlfriend have been hunting for a home in the Margaree Val-ley, where they plan to settle.

But for Park and his partner Jenny Mosley, 30, the West remains the fam-ily’s best hope for a secure future.

Each time Park departs, Mosley joins the boys ev-ery day in writing down on a blackboard how many “sleeps” until Dad returns,

knowing his absence means the bank account will fill up.

Park recalls sitting in an airport two years ago feel-ing helpless as a distraught Mosley called him to say that Mason had been diag-nosed with acute lympho-blastic leukemia.

He said he longed to be home to hold his boy, but also realized work in the oilfield derricks would bring in $80,000 a year, along with a benefits plan for medicine and treat-ments.

Park’s company plan provides full coverage for

between $600 and $1,000 in monthly drug costs, while the province’s phar-macare program requires that families contribute a portion of costs depending on their income level.

Meanwhile, there are two other boys, Mason’s twin brother Maddox and nine-year-old Grady, to provide for.

“When there’s no work, there’s no planning on get-ting ahead. It’s just plan-ning on getting by,” said Mosley, as Mason wriggled into her lap. b

Infrastructure upgrades to this section of Route

11 will focus on promoting economic growth, improv-ing mobility in the Shediac region of New Brunswick and increasing safety for all those who use the highway system.

The $60-million, three-year project will see an overhaul of on-and off-ramps and the twinning of 6.8 kilometres of highway from Route 15 to the south side of the Shediac River. The federal government’s share of $27 million is com-ing from the New Building Canada Fund while the province is kicking in the remaining $33 million.

The total cost of twin-ning Route 11 between Route 15 and Miramichi has been estimated at about $1 billion. Improve-

ments to Route 11 will be completed in phases over the next 10 years, with the most heavily traveled sec-tions to be twinned and the rest of the route upgraded as funding becomes avail-able.

The first step in the She-diac area included one new highway interchange and modifications to three oth-ers as well as a new grade separation, along with the twinning. The 6.8-kilome-tre stretch and the highway bypass upgrades will be done over three construc-tion seasons and is expect-ed to be completed in fall of 2017.

New Brunswick’s Transportation and Infra-structure Minister Roger Melanson tells Supply Post strategic infrastructure in-vestment is a cornerstone

of the government’s plan to create jobs and stimulate New Brunswick’s econo-my.

“As part of the National Highway System, Route 11 is a key transportation cor-ridor for many businesses from all regions of our province,’’ he says. “The section of highway being twinned in the Shediac area has a traffic count of about 19,000 vehicles per day with seasonal peaks exceeding this volume. These upgrades to Route 11 will facilitate the move-ment of people and goods making our businesses more productive and com-petitive and improving highway safety.’’

In addition to the sus-tained economic benefits, Melanson says New Bruns-wick companies will see

from reduced shipping times and vehicle operation costs, the direct and indi-rect impacts from construc-tion work are expected to generate $37.2 million in GDP and approximately 590 jobs.

According to informa-tion provided by DTI, Phase 1 included twinning 6.8 kilometres of highway from Route 15 to the south side of the Shediac River, construction of one new in-terchange, as well as a new grade separation and modi-fications to three other ex-isting interchanges.

The 2015-16 provincial capital budget allocated $19.2 million to begin this work through the provin-cial government’s Strategic Infrastructure Initiative. The Route 11 twinning project was selected to re-

ceive funding for up to half of the eligible costs, to a maximum of $27 million under the federal govern-ment’s New Building Can-ada Plan.

There were a few weather days that affected operations but compared to previous construction seasons, the project is said to have gone went exceed-ingly well and on time. As of December 4, all three of the grading contracts were substantially completed and girders were installed to the structure during the week of December 7-11. There will be no work over the winter months.

A total of four tenders were awarded in 2015 in-cluding three grading proj-ects and a structure for the new Route 11/Route 133 interchange.

The contract to grade 2.1km from Bateman Mill Road to Shediac River and to build 2.1 km of subgrade and subbase for new Route 11 southbound lanes was awarded to Restigouche Construction Co. Ltd. out of Saint-Andre, New Brunswick. The approxi-mately $2 million contract was for the most part a fill project which included over 200,000 m3 of local “borrow” material and ap-proximately 35,000 tons of subbase crushed rock.

Restigouche began working on the project on August 1 and completed their work in mid-October. The company had 10-15 employees working on the project at any given time using an array of equip-ment including more than half a dozen company and 20-25 private truck-ers from the Shediac area. Other equipment included excavators, bulldozers and compactors.

Meanwhile, Dexter Con-struction Co. Ltd. was the successful bidder for the approximately $4.4 mil-lion contract for the grad-ing 1.2 km to realign Route 15 westbound lanes. This project was located just west of the existing Route 15/Route 11 interchange.

The work was mostly a cut project with about 85,000 m3 of excavation but also included approxi-mately 30,000 tons of sub-base/base crushed rock. The new realigned west-bound lane is now about 4.5m lower than the old westbound lane it replaces which will in part accom-modate a future structure that will pass overtop of Route 15 eastbound traffic to access the new north-bound Route 11 alignment.

This grading project also included installation of new 3,000 mm x 3,000 mm box culverts for the ex-isting Route 15 eastbound lane and the new Route 15 realigned westbound lanes. These two 75 m long box culverts complete with fish weirs were produced by Shaw Precast Solutions. A new open channel was also built in the median area.

Due to installation of these new box culverts, logistics was required for traffic control in the form of building temporary median crossovers. The contractor began work on this project September 1 and worked seven days per week. Dexter completed the pav-ing, shouldering and new guiderail installation of the new westbound lanes by mid-November and opened brook flow to the new box culverts in late November.

The third tender was for grading for new Route 11/Route 133 interchange ramps, access road and service road. This also in-cluded 1km of new Route 11 northbound and south-bound lanes subgrade and subbase. Awarded to Dex-ter Construction Ltd., the approximately $2.2 mil-

New Brunswick’s Key Transport Corridor Gets UpgradeAfter years of discussion, work finally began this past summer on the first phase of twinning a section of New Brunswick’s Route 11 highway that connects Shediac to Miramichi. By Jennifer Gouchie-Terris


Dunbar Construction Ltd. of Fredericton, N.B. placed 14 precast pre-stressed concrete beams at a new Route 133/Route 11 underpass structure as part of the first phase of twinning a section of New Brunswick’s Route 11 Highway that connects Shediac to Miramichi. Deck construction will be completed by August, 2016. (Tim Kilfoil photo)


lion contract was mostly a cut project with about 200,000m3 of excavation. Work also included ap-proximately 60,000 tons of subbase/base crushed rock.

Some rock excavation was done in the new ramp from southbound Route 11 to new Route 133. This was a cut of approximately 6 m depth with blasting op-erations undertaken by the contractor to aid with the excavation.

More than 30 company and private local truckers worked on the project us-ing a long list of machinery including CAT 490 excava-tors, D8, D6 and D4 CAT dozers, 349, 320 and 321

CAT excavators and a 90 ton excavator as well as half a dozen 40-ton rock trucks, compaction equip-ment and CAT 14 and 16 graders.

New Route 133/ Route 11 underpass structure is a two-year project. The first phase in 2015 was construction of abutments and pier column and instal-lation of girders and is ex-pected to be completed by March 2016. The second phase of deck construction is to be completed by Au-gust 2016.

The approximately $2.7 million contract was awarded to Dunbar Con-struction Ltd. of Frederic-ton, New Brunswick. The 14 precast pre-stressed

concrete beams for this structure were produced by Strescon Limited of Saint John, NB. The project in-volved a dozen or so com-pany employees along with two large 125 and 200 ton cranes, diesel pile hammer, 624 loader, 330 excavator and rock trucks.

The New Building Canada Fund will provide $53 billion over the next decade in infrastructure money to provincial, terri-torial and municipal infra-structure. Over the next 10 years, New Brunswick will see approximately $866 million in federal funding, including al-most $394 million under the New Building Canada Fund. b

Deck construction will begin next spring. (Tim Kilfoil photo)

Terex Washing Sys-tems (TWS) has enhanced their product portfolio with the announcement of the Terex AggreStac Con-veyor Range. The launch took place as part of TWS Global Distributor Event in the prestigious Carton House Hotel in Maynooth, Ireland. This announce-ment was one of several new product and project services that distributors learnt about during the three day event.

The Terex AggreStac range currently consists of three options, 50ft, 65ft and 80ft. The TWS Design Engineering team considered a wide range of options and features in the new design to aid the customer, some of which included easy and low cost transport costs, which are reflected in the ability of the conveyors to ship in one 40’ container, with track in, track out ability, eliminating crane costs and lengthy set-up times. The Terex Ag-greStac Conveyor Range shares similar innovative design features to that of TWS latest washing solu-tions and also comprises tried and tested compo-nents used in existing Terex equipment such as rollers, drums and drives. The design pro-vides a full range of high specification options in-cluding full under belt and head drum guard-

ing, radio control move-ment and setup where required. In addition the Terex AggreStac Convey-ors are designed so they easily integrate with ex-isting electrical and hy-draulic control systems on TWS equipment. In addition it removes the need for TWS custom-ers to use third party suppliers of auxiliary equipment and instead provides high quality, cost effective stockpiling equipment to comple-ment TWS full range of washing and screening equipment. This makes for more manageable and effective project manage-ment, installation and commissioning of one complete washing solu-tion for the customer.

The Terex AggreStac Conveyors have been de-veloped in response to market research, where-by both global distribu-tors and existing TWS global customer base were consulted as part of an insightful research program. Part of the re-search identified the need for enhanced stock pile solutions, which is now available through the new range as we continually aim to better serve cus-tomer’s specific require-ments.

Sean Loughran, Di-rector TWS commented “This is yet another excit-ing venture for TWS and

further enhances the TWS product range to include everything from quality feed products and modu-lar wash plants through to enhanced stock pil-ing solutions. This lat-est product development demonstrates our ongoing commitment to continu-ally serve our customers’ needs and responding to market demands. The ma-chines are manufactured at the company’s sate of the art Terex facility in Banglaore, India and the project is the first step in a much bigger conveyor project aimed to serve the bulk material handling in-dustry.”

One of TWS distribu-tors, Allan Kane, General Manager, Blue Machinery Scotland Ltd added “As a distributor for TWS the in-troduction of the new line of conveyors helps posi-tion us to better serve our customer needs in terms of providing them with a complete TWS solution. The new conveyor range adorns many features such as containerization for shipping, track in/track out and hydrau-lic controlled functions which will undoubtedly be attractive to our cus-tomers.”

work on both model ranges enables us to use a variety of combinations and tackle all kinds of challenges in a flexible and cost-effective manner,” Proschwitz says while explaining his pref-

erence for Terex tower cranes. He also mentions their competitive prices, as well as the fact that experi-ence has shown that they keep their value well, as additional points in favor.

In addition, the two Ter-

ex tower cranes had another feature that made it seem as though the units were sim-ply destined to work on the project at the Hamburg site – their variable frequency drives, which guaranteed low inrush currents, protect-

ing the city grid from un-manageable voltage fluctua-tions. “If there was one thing we really didn’t want to do, it was to leave the Land-ungsbrücken Piers without electricity,” as Detlev Pros-chwitz succinctly puts it.Excellent teamwork

For the project at the St. Pauli Landungsbrück-en Piers, the Proschwitz team erected the CTT 91-5 flat top tower crane free-standing on a C38 cruci-form base, and the CTT 161A-8 flat top tower crane on cast-in-place anchors. With a jib length of 40 meters and a hook height of 49.5 meters, the CTT 161A-8 was perfectly set up to lift construction ma-terials weighing up to 4.15 tonnes from the jib tip. Its maximum lifting capacity was eight tonnes. The CTT 91-5 was set up with a jib length of 30 meters and a hook height of 40.8 meters. With this setup, it was able to pick up loads of up to 3.3 tonnes.

With these configura-tions, the two Terex tower cranes performed their work smoothly and reli-ably for a total of twelve months, even when ex-posed to wind and inclem-ent weather. As a result, Construction Manager Robert Friske from Köster AG, the primary contrac-tor on the project, was also completely satisfied with the Terex machines: “The high-pressure deadlines normally involved in this type of construction proj-

ects mean that we can’t af-ford any equipment down-times. This means that dependable machinery, such as these two tower cranes, is crucial to a suc-cessful project completed on time,” Robert Friske pointed out. Disassembly in record time

After the work was completed, the cranes needed to be disassembled quickly, as both the port’s anniversary celebration and the Hamburg Mara-thon were just around the corner. Due to the ex-tremely constrained space conditions, it was not pos-sible to tear down the CTT 91 crane using a mobile crane. However, the fact that the tower crane can be easily dismantled into smaller components meant that the CTT 161crane was able to take care of the task and safely disassemble its “smaller sibling.” “The op-tion of being able to disas-

semble the slewing unit came in really handy,” ex-plains Proschwitz. “There’s no other machine with that available!”

After the CTT 91 was dismantled, the CTT 161 was disassembled in 6 hours with the help of a mobile crane. b

Power, great in tight spaces, easy to maintain and no DEF needs

Komatsu America Corp., a leading global heavy equipment manufacturer in-troduced the new PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 hydraulic ex-cavators, two machines with tight tail swing radii, swing booms and convex sliding doors that hug the machine to help with work in tight spaces.

Featuring 2.19 litre, 38 horsepower, EPA Tier 4 final, 4D88E-7 engines, the new PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 use up to five percent less fuel than their predecessors with no loss to performance or productivity.

“The PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 are designed for versatility, manoeu-vrability, comfort and low operating costs,” said Kurt Moncini, Kom-atsu America product manager. “For most con-fined-area jobsites with construction, utility, landscaping or similar applications, this is the right tool for the job,” Moncini said.

The new Tier 4 Final engine is not only more fuel efficient, it has an after-treatment system that requires no diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). The

Komatsu diesel particu-late filter (KDPF) and other after-treatment components are also specifically designed to work in harmony with the engine for added ef-ficiency and long life.

Additionally, the follow-ing features and improve-ments come standard on the PC45MR-5 and PC-55MR-5 excavators:• Enhanced working

modes that allow op-erators to match engine speed and pump delivery to the application.

• Wide service doors that provide easy access for ground-level mainte-nance.

• A high-strength, X-track frame that deters dirt and debris build-up, saving operators valuable ma-chine clean-up time.

• A tilt-up cab for easy ac-cess to hydraulic compo-nents and the back of the engine.

• New auto-idle shutdown and economy modes help save fuel and re-duce machine wear.

• ROPS and OPG Level 1 certified cab and canopy options provide a du-rable, secure operator work environment. b
