Dezer Development photoSo far, weather has not caused any significant problems or delays with the high-profileproject, which has reached a crucial point.

With a cluster of billionaires among its future tenants, the $560-mil-lion, 59-story Porsche Design Tower in Sunny Isles Beach, Fla., will offera first-of-its-kind automated elevator system when construction is com-

pleted next year. The sophisticated technology will allow residents to ride with their cars at a rateof 800 ft. (243 m) per minute, delivering them to their posh residences.

“This is the most sophisticated building to date, featuring the latest technology of home automa-tion,” said Miami luxury real estate liaison Chris Soares. “It’s one of my favorites in the market.”

At 650 ft. (198 m), the uber-upscale South Florida structure will be the tallest oceanfront con-dominium in the United States, and its futuristic parking system is proving to be a major drawingcard. The project is attracting prospective clients from New York and around the globe, includingSouth America, Europe and the Middle East.

“The idea to have a two-car garage in the sky has brought a lot of attention, especially from carcollectors and fans from Porsche Design Group,” said Soares. “This is the first building by Porsche

Tenn. Considers Investing in Transportation JobsBy Erik SchelzigASSOCIATED PRESS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Gov. Bill Haslamsees widespread agreement about Tennessee’sneed to spend more on transportation projects.

But there’s little consensus on what to do

about it, said the Republican governor who hasbeen traveling the state to hold discussionsabout what he calls a $6 billion backlog in trans-portation projects.

“Everybody talks about the needs they have,but then there’s a ‘I’m not really excited about agas tax, what else can we do?’’’ Haslam said.

“The reality is, there’s not a magic bullet outthere.’’

Haslam has said he wants to complete his 15-stop tour before deciding what sort of proposalto make to lawmakers when the Legislatureconvenes in January.

Motocross Racer Makes the Grade After Career Change By Eric OlsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

Todd Bennick’s career took a decidedly left turn severalyears ago — one that has made him a respected member ofthe construction industry.

Bennick owns and operates Bennick Grading in Nebo,located in the mountains of western North Carolina nearMarion.

As a kid, Bennick began motocross racing, a pastime thatcontinued into adulthood as a professional career. But find-ing someone to help build and maintain his practice course,at a reasonable price, proved difficult.

“Well, it was in the early 90s and I bought my first bull-dozer to maintain my private practice track, but after I got ithome I realized I needed to find a way to make the paymenton it,” Bennick said. “So I ran an ad in the paper and startedto get a little work using the dozer. Then problem numbertwo came up: I didn’t have a way to move it, so I bought adump truck and a trailer and from there the business grew towhat it is today.”

Although he was makinga living as a motocross racer,he understood that clearingand grading could become asafer and more lucrativecareer move for him.

Today, Bennick Gradinghas established itself as oneof the region’s top firms.Helping his companyachieve that status in recentyears has been BenchmarkTool & Supply, with officesin Raleigh and Concord.

Benchmark andTopcon Prove to Be

Good PartnersBenchmark is one of the

nation’s top suppliers of sur-veying and constructiontools and is a dealer ofTopcon GPS systems.

Bennick has purchasedthree pieces of GPS-equipped machinery fromBenchmark that have provento be invaluable to his business success. Those include a pairof John Deere 700 series dozers and a Hitachi 350 excava-tor.

The machines have Topcon’s 3D MC Machine Controlsystems mounted in them that make the job of precisiongrading much finer than the old, tried and true methods.

“The benefit of having the Topcon system on an excava-tor, for instance, is that you move your massed dirt reallyclose before the dozer comes in and cleans and straightens itup,” Bennick said. “I looked at it for probably five to sevenyears before I decided to go ahead and invest in the technol-ogy. I knew GPS would be a good fit for me one day but thetiming would have to be right.”

He said that he knew there would be some initial skepti-cism and push back from some of his people who hadbecome used to grading with shots and strings, but that even-tually they would see the benefits of using a GPS.

“On a couple of the first jobs after we got the Topcon, mymanagement guys, Tim Morris and Jason Floyd, didn’t get amodel built on the GPS to work those sites, so they were outthere pulling strings and shooting,” Bennick said. “I gavethem a hard time by saying ‘sitting out there in that 90 degreeweather will break you’ and they said ‘you are exactly right,we are going to do models on these next jobs.’ We decidedthen and there that we were not going to cut any corners andwe are going to move the GPS machines in. It certainlyspeeds up the finished product."

For road building, site work, contour grading or any othercomplex surface grading project, Topcon’s GPS system hasliterally and figuratively been groundbreaking.

Companies like Bennick’s have realized the advantagesand have been able to nearly eliminate the use of gradestakes.

He demoed various GPS systems at a Con/AGG Expo inLas Vegas several years ago and found Topcon’s to be the

smoothest one in his opinion in terms of how it operated anddisplayed. In addition, Bennick said that although it is a com-plex piece of equipment, its ease of use appealed to him.

Still, it took an onsite and potentially expensive problemfor Bennick to finally pull the trigger on buying the TopconGPS tool.

“We were on a commercial job in Morganton,” Bennicksaid. “Grade stakes were set on the job, my guys were outthere grading it and we were trucking dirt in. There was con-fusion in that either the operator made a mistake or the sur-veyor made a mistake, but at the end of the day it cost usabout $20,000 because we imported too much dirt. So wehad to load it right back on the truck and haul it back outagain.

“The great thing about using GPS equipment is if yourmodel is built right everything should be done according tothe plan. You move dirt one time, not two or three. There areso many benefits to doing it just once — from wear and tearon the equipment to the cost of fuel — and having a GPSsystem makes all that go a lot smoother and is much morecost effective.”

Big Projects Hinge on Small DetailsOne of Bennick’s current projects involves grading five

new practice football fields at Appalachian State Universityin Boone.

The work demands precision to the hundredth of an inchbecause these fields have exact contours and need crownsput in to allow for water to drain properly.

The Topcon 3D system has made the job easier and hasincreased his company’s expertise in the eyes of the generalcontractors for whom he works.

“It is so accurate that it will put you within 500th of aninch,” Bennick said. “The contractor that is doing the massgrading and excavation at ASU does not have GPS, so he hascontracted with us to do the fine tuning to where we are

As a kid, Todd Bennick, owner and operator of BennickGrading, began motocross racing, a pastime that con-tinued into adulthood as a professional career.

Cleared for Landing: McCarthy Improves Atlanta Runway With more than 58,000 employees and

250,000 daily passengers, Hartsfield-Jackson in Atlanta consistently ranks as oneof the world’s busiest passenger airports.After withstanding 30-plus years of airplanetaxiing, takeoffs and landings, it was time toreplace a 9,000-ft. (2,743 m) long runway.

The $33 million project had to be com-pleted in less than 30 days to support incom-ing and outgoing passenger and cargoplanes. To complete the demanding project,the airport needed a reputable contractorwith a fleet of accurate equipment.

Enter McCarthy Improvement and itsfleet of E- Z Drill slab-riding concrete doweldrills.

Taxiing to the Project Replacing runway 8L- 26R put pressure

on both the airport and contracting company.The out-of- service runway increased air traf-fic congestion, and diverting planes meantlost revenue for the airport. This put pressureon airport staff to manage hundreds ofincoming and outgoing planes whileMcCarthy Improvement’s crews replacedthe runway’s concrete.

The pressure was enormous for Iowa- based McCarthy Improvement. The high- profile project and 30-day timeframe meantlittle to no room for error. Roughly 900,000sq. ft. (8,361 sq m) of the runway’s 20- in. (50.8 cm) thick concrete needed to bereplaced, along with the taxiways leading upto the runway. Plus, the airport would assessthe construction company about $750 eachminute for liquidated damages if the projectpassed its deadline.

“Throughout my 15 years with McCarthyImprovement, we’ve completed some com-plicated projects, but the Hartsfield-Jacksonproject has probably been one of the mostchallenging. It had the shortest timeframewith the most work to do,” said Nick Wolf,McCarthy Improvement southeast opera-tions manager.

Taking Off The project began Sept. 15, 2014, with

removing the runway’s 100-ft. (30.4 m)wide keel section of concrete —leaving 25-ft. (7.6 m) wide concrete lanes on each side— and demolishing the taxiway leading upto the runway. It took roughly three days forcrews to remove and load out the 6 by12 ft.(1.8 by 3.6 m) concrete slabs into waitingtrucks.

Within 15 hours after the final slab wasremoved, McCarthy Improvement’s con-crete crews were already pouring fresh con-crete for the taxiway and runway.

Twelve hours after placement, the con-crete reached the needed strength to allowdrilling crews to tie the existing lanes to thenew runway section, which reinforced the

joint. This required drilling approximately50,000 holes to 11-in. (27.9 cm) depths socrews could insert dowel bars into the con-crete lanes to reinforce the joint.

McCarthy Improvement’s crew relied onits diverse fleet of E- Z Drill’s slab- riding 210Model drills to accomplish this feat. Thecrew used four 210- 4 SRA 4- gang drills thatwere equipped with dust collectors. Inreserve, they had several 210B- 2 SRA 2- gang drills and five 210B SRA single- gangdrills in case one of the 4-gang drills wentdown.

Each drill was a slab rider, which meansthat the machines sat on top of the existinglane while its four drill heads extended overthe joint to drill back into the lane. Thisensures accurate drilling and dowel place-ment for tying the new keel section into theexisting lane, as well as quick repositioning.Each 4- gang drill had four operatorsassigned to it — two worked the day shiftsand the others manned night shifts.

In addition to the slab- riding capabilities,the four gang drills featured individual drillautomatic shut- offs. This standard featureensured drill operators reached the precisedrilling depth and prevented the drill motorsfrom dry firing. Dry firing prematurelywears motors, resulting in costly repairs anddown time, which would risk putting theproject past the deadline.

“We chose the E- ‐Z Drills because we

were confident they would perform. Theunits are well built and have proven to bereliable in our fleet,” Wolf said.

Efficiently coordinating equipment, mate-rials and personnel were key to keeping theproject on time and prevent workers fromburning out, he said. That included makingsure equipment continued operating at fullcapacity.

“Everything had to be functional 100 per-cent of the time,” Wolf said.

E- Z Drill’s experts teamed withMcCarthy Improvement’s long- time suppli-er, ProContractor Supply, to help minimizemaintenance downtime, especially sincecrews were replacing worn drill bits everythree to four hours. McCarthy Improvementhad worked with ProContractor Supply formore than 10 years and was one of itsbiggest customers.

E- Z Drill’s experts flew to Atlanta andvisited the project twice to check on the drillsand the crew’s progress, and ProContractorSupply stood by, ready for anything.

“We were on call 24/7 during the project,”said Rob Morris, ProContractor Supplyregional sales manager. “So if their drillsever needed maintenance, for example if adrill motor needed replacing, we completedit on the same day.”

Final Approach After drilling about 50,000 holes, the crew

completed the runway and taxiway projecton Oct. 14 — a total of 29 days. After theproject, the airport’s safety staff andMcCarthy’s in-house safety officers com-mended the crews’ cleanliness due to thedrills’ pneumatic dust collection systems.Not only did the collection system help keepthe worksite clean, it also minimized silicadust exposure that can cause breathingissues.

“It can get pretty dusty if you’re not care-ful,” Wolf said. “Companies have silica poli-cies now, and using the drill with the collec-tion systems cut silica dust down to aboutnothing. This only added to the success ofthe project.”

Instead of winding down after such ahigh- profile project, McCarthyImprovement’s concrete crews departed forother projects throughout the Southeast,including North Carolina, Florida andVirginia. And, like the Hartsfield- Jacksonproject, the equipment is its key to finishingprojects on time and on budget.

“Wherever our crews go, the E- Z Drillsgo with them,” Wolf said.

WASHINGTON (AP) Only a handful ofrailroads are close to meeting a deadline thisyear to install safety technology that can pre-vent many crashes, including derailmentsdue to excessive speed like the deadlyAmtrak crash in Philadelphia in May,according to a government report releasedAug. 7.

Only three railroads have submitted safe-ty plans to government, a necessary stepbefore they can put the technology — posi-tive train control, or PTC — into operation,the Federal Railroad Administration reportsaid. They are BNSF Railway, the nation’ssecond largest freight railroad, and two com-muter railroads — Metrolink in the LosAngeles area, and the SoutheasternPennsylvania Transportation Authority inthe Philadelphia area.

Amtrak hasn’t submitted a plan yet, butrailroad officials have said they expect tohave PTC in operation in the railroad’s busyNortheast Corridor by the Dec. 31 deadline.

Some railroads are lagging far behind.Union Pacific, the nation’s largest freightrailroad, hasn’t equipped any of its 6,532locomotives with the technology, according

to the report. None of Norfolk Southern’s3,400 locomotives are equipped, either.

The type of PTC being put into place bymost railroads relies on GPS, wireless radioand computers to monitor train position andautomatically stop or slow trains that are indanger of derailing because they’re travelingtoo fast, are about to collide with anothertrain or are about to enter an area wherecrews are working on tracks.

A rail safety law passed by Congress in2008 gave railroads seven years to install thetechnology. PTC is expensive, and manyrailroads were late getting started. Freightrailroads often host commuter railroad oper-ations on their tracks, and they also fre-quently use the tracks of their competitors.

Developing PTC systems that can be usedby multiple railroads has added a layer ofcomplexity to the effort. Many railroads alsoran into unanticipated difficulties acquiringthe radio spectrum necessary to make thetechnology work, and getting governmentpermission to erect thousands of antennasalong tracks.

Railroads have been urging Congress todelay the deadline. Senate CommerceCommittee Chairman John Thune, R-S.D.,introduced a bill earlier this year that wouldhave provided railroads another five to sevenyears to put PTC into operation.

The railroad industry said the challenge ofdeveloping the technology from scratch isunprecedented. “Reaching deadlines is

important, but even more important is thatwhen PTC is turned on, it is fully operationaland enhancing safety,’’ said EdwardHamberger, president and CEO of theAssociation of American Railroads.

Support for a lengthy extension dimin-ished after accident investigators said theMay 12 Amtrak crash, which killed eightpeople and injured about 200 others, couldhave been prevented if PTC had been inoperation. A sweeping transportation billpassed by the Senate contains provisionssponsored by Thune that would give rail-roads another three years to install the tech-nology, but leaves open when they musthave their PTC systems certified by the gov-ernment, a necessary step before the systemscan be put into operation.

The bill also provides $200 million to helpcommuter railroads install the technology.

The National Transportation Safety Boardhas been urging railroads to install PTC orprecursor train control technologies for morethan four decades. The board has said thatover that time it has investigated 145 PTC-preventable accidents in which more than300 people were killed and 6,700 injured.


“Reaching deadlines is important, but evenmore important is that when PTC is turned on,it is fully operational…”

Tenn. Tries to Find More Money for Road, Transit Jobs Tennessee is not alone in trying to find more money for

road and transit programs. An Associated Press analysis hasfound that at least half of all states have passed transportationfunding measures since 2013, including through higher fueltaxes, vehicle fees and bonds. Officials in Tennessee pride themselves on a pay-as-you-

go approach to road building and maintenance, meaning thestate is unlikely to want to be taking on debt for future proj-ects. That makes it unlikely that the state can significantlyboost transportation without a tax increase — and that’s asubject that causes some fellow Republicans in theLegislature to recoil. House Speaker Beth Harwell, R-Nashville, and Senate

Majority Leader Mark Norris, R-Collierville, predicted thatHaslam would not propose a gas tax hike next session. ButSenate Speaker Ron Ramsey, R-Blountville, said that law-makers need to keep an open mind about ways to meet fund-ing needs. Tennessee charges a 21.4-cent tax on each gallon of gaso-

line, and the levy brings in about $657 million per year. Thetax was last increased in 1989, and the state’s haul is threat-ened by the improving fuel economy on the roads. “Driving on roads is one thing where you can say com-

pared with 30 years ago that you’re paying less,’’ Haslamsaid. “There’s not a lot of things you can say that about.’’ Haslam said he often hears calls for the state to impose a

fee on electric vehicles because they use state roads withoutpaying taxes at the pump. The governor said that some other states charge a $150 fee

for electric vehicles, and that even if Tennessee charged$200 to the about 2,500 registered in the state it would onlyraise $500,000. “My point would be that the issues are bigger than some

of the ideas that have been floated,’’ he said. Tennessee’s gas tax had been 7 cents on each gallon of gas

since 1931 when state lawmakers voted to hike the tax to 9cents in 1981. Two more increases were enacted in 1985 and1986, before the most recent hike set the tax at its current rateof 21.4 cents. Tennessee’s tax rate remains constant regardless of the

price of gasoline, while other states like neighboringKentucky index the tax to the sales price. Haslam said one of the political challenges of enacting an

increase in the gas tax is that it can take eight years for roadprojects to move from the planning stages to completion. “You realize, well I’m not going to be cutting any ribbons

— that’s eight years away,’’ Haslam said. “So you say, letsomeone else worry about it. There’s a lot of voices that say let’s push this off,’’ he said.

“But the need is not going to go away. We’re going to haveto do something to address this.’’

Bobcat Company, Doosan Expanding West Fargo HQBobcat Company and parent organization Doosan have

broken ground on a $9.5 million company headquartersexpansion in West Fargo, N.D.

Company officials say the expansion to the existing facil-ity will help accommodate growth, drive innovation andimprove operations, which are all key to maintaining globalleadership.

“This is an exciting time at Bobcat Company and Doosan,as we continue to grow in North Dakota,” said RichGoldsbury, president of Bobcat Company and Doosan NorthAmerica. “This investment is about maintaining our leader-ship position in the compact equipment industry, drivingmore heavy equipment business growth, and creating anenvironment where innovation and forward thinking willgenerate the next best ideas.”

The current headquarters — built in 2000 — houses indi-viduals within several departments of business administra-tion, as well as product development and marketing com-munications for Bobcat Company and Doosan, a heavyequipment brand. The expansion will double square footageand employee capacity, andBobcat and Doosan will pur-sue LEED certification forthe facility in both designand construction.

Last year, Bobcat andDoosan opened theAcceleration Center inBismarck, N.D., a facilityfocused on engineering,R&D, training and producttesting. Other North DakotaBobcat and Doosan facilitieshave undergone renovationsover the last two years.

The expansion is slatedfor completion in late sum-mer 2016. Bobcat Companyhas four other North Dakotafacilities: its primary manu-facturing plant in Gwinner;an attachments productionfacility in Bismarck; the newAcceleration Center inBismarck; and a support fac-tory in Wahpeton. The West Fargo expansionwill enable Bobcat Company and Doosan tobring together employees currently working atdifferent locations in the Fargo area. Bobcat willmaintain its presence at the North Dakota StateUniversity Technology and Research Park, apartnership in place since 2005.

The expansion also fits with BobcatCompany’s commitment to fields related toSTEM (science, technology, engineering andmath), which has been a major initiative forBobcat and Doosan, the state of North Dakotaand the region.

“We plan to create an environment that helpsus attract and retain talented team membersfocused on helping to move our company for-ward,” Goldsbury said. “The building will offerstate-of-the-art facilities for collaboration andindependent working, similar to what we’vedone at the Acceleration Center in Bismarck.”

The $28 million Acceleration Center project last yearinvolved expansion of an existing building in Bismarck toinclude office and lab space, classrooms and demonstrationareas, and both indoor and outdoor machine operating areas.The Acceleration Center has been lauded for its innovativeworkspaces and technology. The expanded headquartersbuilding will see many of the same features, and it will be acontinued model for how all Bobcat and Doosan facilitieswill function.

“This is an ongoing investment and process,” Goldsburysaid. “We’ll continue to make enhancements that help usmaintain our leadership in the industry. Our people and prod-ucts are second to none; we want our facilities to be thesame.”

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) A legal settlement is clearing theway for work to replace the crumbling bridge connecting theOuter Banks as early as next spring, as well as two newbridges on Hatteras Island over precarious areas where themain road is frequently washed out, North Carolina officialssaid. The word comes after environmental groups represented

by the Southern Environmental Law Center dropped a law-suit blocking North Carolina from replacing the 52-year-oldbridge that was designed to last for 30 years. A legal settle-ment wrapping up the case was reached in June. The deal calls for a new span over Oregon Inlet parallel to

the existing Bonner Bridge, the only link to the mainlandfrom Hatteras Island. Past estimates have put the price tagfor the 2.8-mi. (4.5 km) bridge at about $215 million, butyears of delays would raise the price tag. The total extra costwas not yet clear, DOT spokesman Mike Charbonneau said. The state also will build a half-mile bridge over an

unnamed inlet carved through the island by a 2011 hurri-cane. The bridge for North Carolina Highway 12 over thenow-largely filled inlet through the Pea Island NationalWildlife Refuge is expected to cost about $28 million,Charbonneau said. Work on this bridge could start before theend of the year, state officials said. The DOT is scrapping a$79 million contract to build a longer, permanent bridge,according to terms of the legal settlement. A third, 2.5-mi. (4 km) long bridge will sweep over the

Pamlico Sound to avoid a precarious section of Highway 12known locally as the “S-curves.” That’s expected to costbetween $179 million and $198 million. It was a year ago that the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of

Appeals unanimously rejected the state’s plan to replace theBonner Bridge without rerouting N.C. 12 away from thewildlife refuge. Environmental opponents argued the state’s replacement

plan left out the cost of moving or maintaining about 12 mi.(19 km) of N.C. 12 through the wildlife refuge.Environmentalists said the Bonner Bridge replacementwould be useless without additional road and bridge con-struction. The environmental groups had wanted a 17-mi. (27 km)

route around the wildlife refuge to connect the town ofRodanthe and other communities on Hatteras Island. Thatbridge would have been the second-longest bridge in theUnited States and state officials said it would cost more than$1 billion.

No Worse for Wear: Smart Techniques Improve Track LifeBy Amber ReedSPECIAL TO CEG

Tracks on a compact loader can make allthe difference for contractors looking to beproductive and profitable year-round.Although buying or renting a compact trackloader may seem like a large upfrontexpense compared to using a skid steerloader, by employing smart operating tech-niques to increase the life of the tracks andundercarriage system any contractor can geta good return on investment.

“The undercarriage on a compact track

loader works as a system,which means wear isunavoidable,” said JamieWright, product manager,Terex ConstructionAmericas — manufacturerof Terex compact track load-ers. “On any trackedmachine, the undercarriageis the most costly part of themachine. It can make upalmost 20 percent of themachine’s price and nearly50 percent of its mainte-

nance cost. Such valuable componentsshould never be abused or neglected.”

The key to extending the life of the under-carriage components on a compact trackloader is to recognize the factors that con-tribute to undercarriage wear and makeadjustments to reduce their effect, wheneverpossible. According to Wright, there are fourmajor factors that influence the life andlongevity of a compact track loader’s under-carriage: terrain, application, operation andmaintenance.

TerrainCompact track loaders feature exception-

al flotation, traction and versatility, whichenables operators to work on adverse terrainsuch as in mud, sand, snow and undevelopedsites. However, working in such abrasiveconditions can increase wear to a loader’sundercarriage components.

“For example, jagged construction ordemolition debris may cause more wear thansand or finished landscaping,” said Wright.“And, working in level terrain causes lesswear than rugged, heavily sloped areas. Theterrain you are operating in will greatlyaffect the wear and tear on the loader’stracks.

“On a flat surface, the machine’s weight isspread through the roller wheels to the fullground contact area of the track. This meansthat minimal machine weight is applied tothe track lugs, and wear is distributed evenlyover the entire track surface.

“On slopes, the loader’s weight shifts sothe roller wheels increase contact and pres-sure to the sides of the track lugs,” addedWright, “which can cause uneven wear onthe outside of the tracks.”

Even though compact trackloaders work well in demandingterrain, Wright recommendedthat operators follow somecommonsense approaches tooperating and maintaining theirmachines to make the trackslast. For example: When operat-ing in rocky conditions, espe-cially in gravel or loose stone,operators should not twist andturn the loader unnecessarily.Counter rotating the tracks willcause them to dig into the stone,which will allow the stone to getinto the bogies and inside thetrack.

Immediately after any job iscompleted, check the trackcomponents and remove jobsite debris.

"Mud can push small rocksinto the bogies and track com-ponents, and these need to beremoved by power washing

and/or a shovel," said Wright.

ApplicationDemanding applications, like excavation

and dozing, maximize the torque and horse-power that is transferred through the sprock-et to the tracks. Whereas less demandingjobs, like backfilling, require less torque andhorsepower.

“The amount of torque and horsepowerrequired by an application has a direct corre-lation to the amount of wear to the loader’strack components,” said Wright. He recom-mends that operators vary the type of appli-cations their loaders are working in as oftenas possible to increase track longevity.

OperationThe most common cause of premature

track failure is from operating technique. “Many operators run their compact track

loaders as if they are skid steers — skid steeroperators do a lot of counter-rotating andspinning the tires to get the bucket filled tomaximum capacity,” said Wright. “A com-pact track loader’s track drive is differentthan the wheels of the skid steer. Compacttrack loaders have enough traction that thetracks do not need to spin to fill the bucket,and counter rotating the tracks will causethem to dig into the stone, which will allowthe stone to get into the bogies and inside thetrack.”

Wright recommends taking the time toturn, rather than counter-rotating, to extendthe track’s component life.

“A better approach is to make a three-point turn with the loader,” said Wright.

Another way to increase track life is to avoid trav-eling over transitions, like a curb or a ledge.

Compact track loaders feature exceptional flotation, traction and versatility, whichenables operators to work on adverse terrain such as in mud, sand, snow andundeveloped sites. see TRACKS page 34

Project Challenges Include Melding Different Technologies Design Group. It features unprecedentedtechnology and design. There is a lot ofinterest, as sales have reached over 90 per-cent. There are only a few residences avail-able, starting from $7 to over $32 million.”

The Porsche Design Tower features a totalof 132 residences and six different floorplans Some will feature a garage opening tothe living room, showcasing cars as a workof art.

Gil Dezer, Dezer Development presidentand car enthusiast, envisioned the complextransport system, while branding the build-ing with Porsche design. Dezer, who alongwith his father owns 27 acres of primeoceanfront property in Sunny Isles Beach,has patented the system and plans to use it onfuture projects.

“We are very pleased that this genuinelyunique feature has come to fruition,” saidDezer, who’s considered a major player inthe rebirth of Sunny Isles Beach, and hasbeen directly involved with development ofthe automobile transfer system since thebeginning. “The melding of these technolo-gies is nothing short of compelling. PorscheDesign Tower’s robotic parking technologywill serve as a catalyst for future luxury realestate developments around the world, espe-cially in urban cities where parking is a pre-mium.”

When residents drive into the building,their vehicle will be scanned and identified.Then they will enter a turntable, which is oneof three circular platforms located at the cen-ter of the building. After they shut off theengine, the turntable will align the vehiclewith a car lift. As the car lift opens, a robot-ic arm pulls the vehicle into one of threeglass lifts, and takes the vehicle and itsowner — at passenger elevator speed — toone of 284 parking spaces adjacent to theirrespective residence. A resident may opt toride in his or her car to the unit, or a carconcierge will put the vehicle on the elevatoras the homeowner rides a passenger elevator.

Chicago-based Mid-American ElevatorCo. Inc. is installing the automobile eleva-tors for the Porsche Design Tower, and alsois supplying four construction hoists for theproject.

“Mid-American is responsible for design,fabrication and installation of the“Dezervators” — the three automobile ele-vators in the building,” said Mid-Americanpresident Rob Bailey. “This includes superhigh-speed extra large elevators, glass andstainless elevator cabins, a turntable on eachelevator car, a shuttle mechanism on eachelevator that will move the automobiles inand out of the elevator cabin, 150 extra largecurved fire-rated hoistway doors and six cir-cular glass entry-exit rooms at the P1 level.”

Workers put together a full workingmodel test facility as part of the construction

process. The building is an eight-story steelstructure built by McHugh Construction,Chicago, at the USA Hoist facility in CrestHill, Ill. The building has allowed workersto install a full-scale prototype of the eleva-tors, including two full size entry-exit roomsand a couple of two-car garages. Mid-American had the prototype elevator storingand retrieving automobiles since March2015.

“We will be able, before we de-commis-sion the test building later this year, to adjustand test almost all the critical safety func-tions of the elevators,” said Bailey. “The testbuilding has been indispensable to the proj-ect. We have been able to develop most ofthe innovations necessary of the PorscheTower Dezervators to work properly. Someof the items we have been working on

include the two hoisting machine synchro-nization, hydraulic operation of the largehoistway doors, integration of the turntablesand shuttles into automatic elevator opera-tion and special safety functions like ourscanning safety laser systems.

“There is a back-up safety device onevery elevator. If the elevator over-speeds inthe down direction, the ‘safety’ will be actu-ated and jaws on the car will grip the eleva-tor guide rails and stop the elevator. Becauseof the large size of this elevator, we neededto design and install special safeties, and weneeded to test those devices at full load andspeed, which we are able to do in the testbuilding.”

After a final test run for UnderwritersLaboratories (UL), the model will be dis-mantled in September and transported toSunny Isles for installation.

“We built the test building with that inmind,” said Bailey. “Some of the floors ofthe building were designed to be removable.We have a large overhead crane in the build-ing that will allow us to ‘crane out’ some ofthe larger parts. Elevator mechanics are thejacks-of-all-trades in the construction indus-try. They do work that would otherwise bedone by iron workers, mill wrights, electri-cians, carpenters and computer program-mers. Most elevator mechanics are alsoexcellent riggers. We have some of the best‘rigger’ mechanics in the industry workingon this project.

The elevator cars will be assembled inCrest Hill and be shipped in one piece toMiami, according to Bailey.

“The elevator cars are about 25 feet long,12 feet wide and 12 feet tall, and will weighabout 15,000 pounds. This is Mid-American’s biggest project to date. We havea team of four engineers and three projectmanagers that are tracking the thousand dif-ferent components and parts we need toassemble these elevators.”

Design work began in August 2013.Installation of the elevators began in July2014. Crews expect to finish June 1, 2016.

“The biggest challenges have been meld-ing together two technologies — high speedelevators and automatic parking equip-ment,” Bailey said. “There have beendozens of critical components designed justfor these three elevators. In a lot of ways, weare reinventing the way elevators aredesigned and built. For example, virtually

FAIRFIELD, Ala. (AP) U.S. Steel Corp. said Aug. 17 thatit will close its Fairfield Works mill, one of the largestremaining pieces from Birmingham’s years as a Southernsteel-making giant. The decision will affect about 1,100 workers at the rough-

ly century-old plant, company spokeswoman Sarah Cassellasaid. It was unclear whether employees might be able tomove to other jobs within the Pittsburgh-based company. An adjoining plant that employs about 700 people will

continue making steel pipe, the company said, and construc-tion of an electric arc furnace will continue on the property.An associated galvanizing operation will keep operating inJackson, Miss., U.S. Steel said. But the blast furnace and other operations at Fairfield

Works will close around Nov. 17. “Any time you’re talking about a major layoff, it’s no

good news at all,’’ Fairfield Mayor Kenneth Coachman said. The plant is just outside the city limits of its namesake

town, but Coachman said many workers still live in Fairfield. “It will be a tremendous loss to them and their families,’’

he said. In a statement from U.S. Steel, CEO Mario Longhi said

the shutdown was needed to improve the efficiency and coststructure of the company’s rolled-steel segment.

Keeping Material in Front of Loader Extends Track Use“This will save a lot of wear and tear on thetracks, and it only takes a few extra secondsto execute.”

Another way to increase track life is toavoid traveling over transitions, like a curbor a ledge. If it is necessary, Wright recom-mends that operators maintain a 90-degreeangle with the transition and to make surethat both tracks are fully supported by theground.

Although compact track loaders excel atworking on inclines, these conditions can betough on the tracks. Wright suggests thatwhen working on inclines that operatorsshould avoid making sudden changes indirection, that they should move slowly andalways carry loads low to increase machinestability.

And, one of the most important thingsWright recommends to operators for extend-ing track life is to keep material in front ofthe loader.

“We recommend working the pile fromthe sides and then the middle to reduce theamount of material getting into the tracks,”said Wright.

MaintenanceThe undercarriage components of the

compact track loaders are designed to wearevenly. According to Wright, if some com-ponents wear more quickly than others, itcan affect the productivity and wear of all thecomponents. Performing recommendedmaintenance as outlined by the loader man-ufacturer’s guidelines will help extend thelife of the tracks and reduce machine down-time.

“These machines shine in tough applica-tions and following a preventative mainte-nance program is the key to extending tracklife,” said Wright.

As with any machine, a daily visualinspection of the undercarriage is recom-mended. The operator should look for abnor-mal wear or prematurely worn undercarriagecomponents, such as track lugs or bogiewheels and idlers. Especially when workingin muddy conditions, check the track com-ponents for debris immediately after the job.

“Mud can push small rocks into thebogies and track components, and these needto be removed by power washing and/or ashovel,” said Wright.

Keeping proper track tension also will addlongevity to track life. If the track is tooloose, it could disengage, which increasesthe chance of wear and damage. If track ten-sioning is too tight, this can result in

increased roller and idler wear and the tracktearing.

“Check the track tension during yourwalk-around or inspection routine — tracksshould be tensioned according to theowner/operators manual,” said Wright.

Wright also recommends that contractorsconsider an all-rubber-track drive system,such as offered on Terex compact track load-ers, to increase track and component life.Tracks made with steel imbedded in the rub-ber can rust and corrode, which will decreaseservice life.

“Additionally, since there are no holes inthe track for the sprocket to mesh, the trackcan be made with composite materials ratherthan a steel skeleton. This feature means thatTerex tracks are more flexible and generallylast longer than steel-imbedded tracks,” hesaid.

“Understanding the service limits of vari-ous undercarriage components is an impor-tant part of owning and operating any com-pact track loader,” said Wright.“Components that have reached the end oftheir service life should be replaced immedi-ately. Failure to replace worn componentscan accelerate wear or cause failure of otherrelated components. It can also adverselyaffect the overall cost of ownership andmachine value.”

Wright also suggests that equipment man-agement is the key to successfully extendingthe life of not only the track but also the com-pact track loader itself. He recommends thata company assesses its current and futureneeds, such as scope of the jobs ahead ofthem and new tasks that need to be per-formed.

“Know the loader’s operating capacitywhen considering a machine for the job, ana-lyze the weight of the material and howquickly the material needs to be moved,”said Wright.

Choosing a compact track loader that istoo small for the job can lead to an overloadsituation, which can substantially reducetrack life and shorten compact track loaderlife, while potentially increasing the numberof repairs required.

Because costs can be reduced with propercompact track loader operation and machinemaintenance, tracks can make all the differ-ence in your productivity and profitability.At the end of the day, usage conditions great-ly influence the life and longevity of a com-pact track loader

Dezer Development Works to Ensure Safety of Residents100 percent of elevators built to date use onehoisting machine, usually located in thepenthouse machine room. The PorscheDesign Dezervators are so large and fast thatwe needed to use two of the largest availablehoisting machines per elevator. Gettingthese machines synchronized properly hasbeen a challenge that we have successfullyovercome.”

A variety of machinery on the project isneeded, including forklifts, lulls, welders,chainfalls and custom tools and equipment.

“The main construction equipment wehave been using so far — 50 percentthrough the installation process — are sixmast climbing work platforms we are rent-ing from our sister company USA Hoist.The elevator hoistway is so large, roughly a600 foot tall cylinder over 50 feet in diame-ter, that a standard swing-stage style workplatform just would not do the job. We havesix AC-13, 10,000-pound capacity mastclimber units running on three towers. Thetowers are temporarily tied into the elevatorrail brackets. We designed custom curvedplatform sections so we would effectivelywork on the whole inside circumference ofthe hoistway. The bottom platform on eachtower is the working platform. The top plat-form operates as a location for multiple jibcranes.”

According to Bailey the most difficult partof the process is aligning all the heavy steel.

“We are installing the jumbo guide rails,the 1,500-pound door frames, the 1,200-pound hoistway doors to a tolerance of 1/32of an inch side-to-side and top to bottom.We are continuously checking our alignmentwith transits and lasers as we are workingour way up the building.

“The mast climbing work platformsmake the job much, much safer than typicalelevator installation using winch/cableswing-stage style work platforms. TheMCWPs have a very large load capacity andrelatively high speed — about 30 fpm — sowe can lift a team of mechanics, tools andheavy equipment to the installation location.The MCWPs have a large and very stablework area that allows us to do the workinside a handrail perimeter, and not be con-stantly hanging over the side of a swingingwork platform trying to maneuver loads thatare on a separate load line. I think theMCWPs have made the installation of thesesuper large elevators possible and safe,” saidBailey.

The placement of the elevators was cru-cial in the overall design process.

“The building is basically designedaround the automobile elevators,” saidBailey. “The automobile elevators are in thecentral core of the building. They will bevisible from the street through windows inthe hoistway for the first 100 feet of vertical.

They make possible the entire concept of‘sky garages’ where condominium ownershave their cars parked virtually right in theirapartments.

Dezer Development and Mid-AmericanElevator have done everything possible toensure the safety of the residents. The equip-ment is being built to a combination of thelatest elevator safety standards, and the latestindustrial automation safety standards. ULLLC, the foremost testing laboratory in theworld, has been retained to review the entiredesign to ensure it complies with the ASMEA17.7 National Performance Based ElevatorCode. Dezer, architect Sieger Suarez, Mid-American, UL, and the Miami-Dade eleva-tor inspection authorities have had multiplereviews of the design and UL and Miami-Dade will be inspecting the finished product,said Bailey.

“It’s critical that we’re all on the samepage. This is an all-new product. We need toensure that the final product meets theowner’s and architect’s expectations for fin-ish and functionality. In order to get itinstalled properly and in a timely fashion, wehave almost hourly consultations with thegeneral contractor for the project, CoastalConstruction. Coastal has been on top of theautomobile elevator installation from dayone, and has a very in-depth understandingof our installation issues.

“It’s very exciting,” Bailey said. “We canall hardly wait to get the elevators operatingat full speed. I think riding these elevatorwill be better than a ride in SpaceMountain.”

Lael Bailey, Mid-American project man-ager said, “This project has been fun and

challenging for our entire company.Everyone involved has found interesting andinnovative solutions to the unique construc-tion issues.”

According to Ed Fallin, CoastalConstruction project executive, the PorscheDesign Tower is currently 52 percent com-plete. The car elevator mock-up in the testfacility is operational. Testing was recentlyconducted for UL and Miami Dade elevatorinspectors. On site, brackets, rails, sills anddoors are being installed in the shaft on thelower third of the building.

Work continues on the structure, win-dows, interiors and balcony pools. The maintasks yet to be carried out include the com-pletion of car elevators and the associatedlife safety system (the first of its kind everdone), the life safety system for building andthe completion of four passenger elevators in

order to remove the temporary hoists. The main challenges on the project

include the foundations; specifically, over-coming groundwater challenges, the car ele-vator system and commissioning/testing andsite logistics. Fallin said the staging ofmaterials can be tricky. With a site size ofonly 2.2 acres and a tower that takes up mostof that space, deliveries must also be sched-uled very carefully.

The collaboration with Mid-American isworking out well, according to officials.Coastal Construction has assisted the ownerand elevator company with coordinationwith other trades involved with the work.The company remains on site installingbrackets, rails, sills and doors for each eleva-tor.

The site was cleared by the owner prior to

mobilization. The only minor demolitionwas the existing two-story building on theeast side of the site along Collins Avenue,which was the sales center. Approximately16,189 cu. yds. (12,377 cu m) of dirt wasexcavated for the main concrete foundation.An additional 2,000 cu. yds. (1,529 cu m)has been dug up for the foundation of thefront parking garage and main building elec-tric, water and sewer connections.

Some of the equipment used in buildingthe Porsche Design Tower has included twotower cranes, a crane with drill rig, excava-tors, a concrete pump, swing stage scaffold-ing and the mast climbers for car elevators.

The structure is reinforced concrete.Concrete strengths range from 4,000 psi to12,000 psi. The typical slabs are 10 in. (25.4cm) thick with post-tension reinforcing. Thecompleted structure will consist of approxi-mately 72,000 cu. yds. (55,047 cu m) of con-crete, 6,181 tons (5,607 t) of reinforcing steelalong with 614 tons (557 t) of post tensionedcable concrete slab reinforcing.

So far, weather has not caused any signif-icant problems or delays with the high-pro-file project, which has reached a crucialpoint.

“The development, and now realization,of the car elevator system took a tremendouseffort by all parties involved,” said Fallin.“The team is proud of its accomplishment.”

The completed building will includeplunge pools and outdoor summer kitchenson the balconies of almost every unit, a carlobby on the ground level, a three-storylobby with a glass-enclosed car observatory,a state-of-the-art spa with treatment roomsand Vichy showers, a sunset terrace withtwin oversized spa tubs, an oceanfront poolfeaturing food and beverage service andbeach side lounges.

A private restaurant with outdoor seatingand a lounge bar overlooking the ocean alsowill be offered, along with multipurposeclub rooms including a movie theater andgame room, along with a ballroom and a carconcierge’ to provide assistance with oilchanges, car washes and other regular main-tenance. Other amenities include a winecooler for each homeowner, a fitness center,car racing and golf simulators.

The units range from 3,500 sq. ft. (325 sqm) to 17,000 sq. ft. (1,579 sq m) Concretefoundation piles extend as far as 135 ft. (41.1m) below the tower. The total building inte-rior area is roughly 1,000,000 sq. ft. (92,903sq m).

Work on the Porsche Design Towershould be completed next year, with thecondo slated for occupancy during the firstquarter of 2016.

“We have made some difficult decisions over the last yearas part of our portfolio optimization,’’ Longhi said.

U.S. Steel announced temporary shutdowns earlier thisyear at two facilities in Minnesota, resulting in more than1,000 layoffs. The domestic steel industry has been buffetedfor years by low prices and foreign imports.

The United Steelworkers blamed the decision on unfairforeign competition.

“In particular, China has repeatedly violated internationaltrade rules to bolster its state-owned industry while dumpingits products into our market, and American workers havealready paid the price,’’ union President Leo W. Gerard saidin a statement.

Located just west of Alabama’s largest city, FairfieldWorks is a major part of Birmingham’s past as a steel-pro-ducing city, the so-called “Pittsburgh of the South.’’

The Birmingham suburb of Fairfield was a planned com-pany town that grew up around the mill in the early 1900s,according to the Encyclopedia of Alabama. More than40,000 people were employed at Fairfield Works makingsteel during World War II, and about 11,000 people now livein Fairfield.

The region’s steel industry began a slow decline about 50years ago, and medical and financial industries now domi-nate Birmingham’s economy.

Benchmark Boosts Bennick Grading’s Precision Workdoing everything per plan. If he had to do it the old way him-self it would take probably 5 times longer to do it versususing a GPS. We can send one guy in a dozer with the GPSequipment and he pushes a button and itautomatically starts putting these fieldson perfect grade.”

Lake Projects a SpecialtyBennick’s company, located near the

shores of picturesque Lake James, hasbecome expert in all types of earthmov-ing and excavation, including shore stabi-lization and rock and dock work on lakeshores. The company also uses a section-al barge in its lake work that is useful inrepair and recovery work.

Bennick does both residential andcommercial projects, as well. On thecommercial side, the company generallyworks on one- to four-acre sites preparingthem for restaurants, shopping centersand manufacturing facilities.

“Places like Cracker Barrel orApplebee’s are a good fit for our com-mercial side,” Bennick said. “We do allthe site work from the raw site until theGC is ready to do the foundation. Thatincludes the clearing, grading, pad prepa-ration, utilities, sewer lines and water. We

do most of that work in house but we will sub the utilitywork and the concrete/asphalt work.”

One of Bennick’s projects in 2013 involved constructingan elaborate and complex underground drainage system for

a factory in Asheville. Designed by an engineering firm, thedrainage and retention system will hold a tremendousamount of rainwater after a big storm and then release itslowly in order to mitigate flooding at the surface.

He said that his company installed sev-eral hundred feet of 48- or 60-in. (121 or152 cm) pipe that all hooked together toform the retention system.

Now, Bennick is doing a similardrainage project at the Veteran’sAdministration hospital in Salisbury.

Bennick Credits Others for Success

In 17 years as a company, BennickGrading is to the point now where it hasabout 20 employees and around 50machines in its stock.

He credits his management people, TimMorris and Jason Floyd, for keeping thecompany running smoothly.

SCDOT Adopts New Rule Limiting Ex-Employees By Seanna AdcoxASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) To combat theperception that contractors who hire formerDepartment of Transportation employees getan advantage in winning contracts, theSCDOT is adopting a new rule limiting whatthose ex-employees can do, the stateagency’s acting secretary said.

Christy Hall told a House oversight panelthe policy bars employees who leave theagency from working on new road construc-tion projects for 365 days. The agency can-celed advertisements Aug. 10 so it couldrevise and reissue the bid solicitations, shesaid.

The new policy is aimed at clarifyingexisting state ethics law.

Hall said it’s a response to an unsuccess-ful legislative proposal and the resultingdeparture of high-level staff. The failedbudget clause would have barred companiesthat hire a DOT engineer from winning anyDOT contract for one year. Three employeeswith decades of experience left in a two-week span — ahead of what would havebeen the July 1 effective date — out of con-cern they wouldn’t be able to work afterretiring from the DOT, she said.

Several others left within the last sixmonths.

Hall acknowledged “some gray areas’’ inthe ethics law regarding an ex-staffer’sallowed involvement on a DOTproject.

The proposal “certainly got ourattention,’’ said Hall, who becameacting secretary July 1 followingJanet Oakley’s resignation. “Itbecame readily apparent thatthere’s a perception issue with peo-ple getting contracts and, yes, wemay be following the letter of thelaw with the ethics act, but there arestill complaints about the appear-ance of impropriety.’’

Paul Townes, the DOT’s chiefinternal auditor, told the panel it’s alegitimate concern, since ex-staffers can be seen at DOT com-mission meetings.

“They’re there almost the nextmonth,’’ he said. “I think there’s public mis-conception.’’

The policy’s wording was expected to befinalized later that week. Hall noted she hadnot yet briefed commissioners on the newrule.

The panel’s chairwoman, Rep. Phyllis

Henderson, R-Greer, called it a step in theright direction.

Rep. Ralph Norman, R-Rock Hill, said hetoo supports the concept, but projects take a

“lot longer than 365 days’’ between theirbidding and construction. He’s eager to seethe rule’s final wording.

“Does it solve what it intended to solve?No,’’ said Norman, a real estate developer.“We do have a lot of good employees whowork there. They’re hired by different firms

to navigate the system.’’ Their subcommittee is reviewing the

agency’s budget and spending practices toprepare for next year’s debate on how to fix

South Carolina’s deterioratingroads. The House passed a plan lastspring that would have generatedan additional $400 million yearlyfor road and bridge construction. Aplan advanced to the Senate floorwould have raised twice that, but afilibuster prevented senators fromvoting on it before the sessionended.

The bill will be on the Senatecalendar under special debate statuswhen the Legislature returns inJanuary.

Activists who oppose increasingthe state’s 16.75-cents-per-gallonfuel tax — unchanged since 1987— want to shift the debate fromfunding to reform.

DOT Commission ChairmanJim Rozier told the panel the agency can’timprove the nation’s fourth-largest statehighway system without additional money.


To combat the perception thatcontractors who hire formerDepartment of Transportationemployees get an advantagein winning contracts, theSCDOT is adopting a newrule limiting what those ex-employees can do…

Versatile RT1200 Delivers Powerful Digging PerformanceThe Toro RT1200 offers a number of

features to meet the needs of utility con-tractors. Built on a tool carrier chassis, itsdesign allows contractors to select fromtracks or tires and a variety of attach-ments — including a backhoe, 6-waybackfill blade, rocksaw, vibratory plow,reel carrier and the Toro-exclusiveheavy-duty (HD) trencher drive.

The Toro HD trencher drive consistsof three major components — a fly-wheel, torsion shaft and planetarygearset. The flywheel stores inertial ener-gy, ensures efficient hydraulic systemoperation and keeps the chain consistent-ly running in tough digging conditions,the torsion shaft absorbs shock loads, andthe planetary gearset multiplies thehydrostatic motor torque for added dig-ging power. Added up, the HD trencherdrive technology ensures consistent,powerful trenching performance in themost demanding digging conditions.

Trenching is not the only tough taskwhere the RT1200 excels. When itcomes to plowing, the RT1200’s P105vibratory plow features plow-blade atti-tude adjustment, as well as plow steerand swing of up to 30 degrees to main-tain plowing accuracy and provide

enhanced maneuverability.“Not only is the RT1200 a powerful

performer, it is an operator-focusedmachine,” said Josh Beddow, market-ing manager of Toro’s undergroundutility equipment line. “With its open-design operator platform, easily acces-sible controls mounted to the arm rests,multi-adjustable high-back suspensionseat and large digital display, theRT1200 provides the operator withgreat visibility and comfort to ensuremaximum productivity.”

Additionally, its Cummins 4.5 L, 121hp engine and 48 gal. (182 L) fuel tankprovide high output with minimaldowntime. A standard tilt frame allowsthe operator to tilt the machine at vari-able degrees in order to maintain trenchangle, while optional load controlallows the operator to set the percentageof engine output dedicated to theground drive to ensure the performanceof the digging implement is maintained.

Vermeer Introduces Second HDD in Its New S3 SeriesWith operator needs at the forefront of design and engineer-

ing, Vermeer has introduced a horizontal directional drill withimproved power and reliability for the increasingly demandingprojects contractors face. The D20x22 S3 Navigator HDD wasdesigned from the voice of contractors who desire a small foot-print machine yet one that is able to increase productivity whenworking in urban or tight job sites.

“Compared to its predecessor, the D16x20 Series II, Vermeeradded power and improved precision control for those cus-tomers who work mainly in fiber/telecom and gas service instal-lation,” said Jon Kuyers, global product manager of under-ground business at Vermeer. “We listened to our customers anddeveloped a machine to help them be more productive.”

The D20x22 S3 features 19,550 lbs. (8,875.7 kg) ofthrust/pullback with 2,250 ft.-lb. (3,050.6 Nm) of torque. The74-hp (55 kW) Deutz engine is capable of 12 percent greaterpower compared to its predecessor, the D16x20 Series II. Allnew models that feature the S3 label are Tier IV Final (Stage IV)emission compliant in North America and Europe. Units sold inlesser regulated countries will have Tier IV Interim engines.

The D20x22 S3 features a new hydraulic system design withenhanced rotation, thrust and tracking performance over itspredecessor, the D16x20 Series II Navigator HDD. Thehydraulics increases the system efficiency, allowing better useof engine horsepower and helping to increase the drill’s produc-tivity. Rotational speed and thrust speed surpass comparabledrills in the market.

The D20x22 S3 has a faster carriage speed, which can lead toan increase in the amount of product installed per minute. The167 ft. (50.9 m) per minute now exceeds competitive models in

the same class. Tracking power and speed has increased as well;improving the drill’s ability to make sharper turns, climb slopesand track up to 3.3 mph (5.3 kmh) to travel to various job sitesin less time than previous models, according to the manufactur-er.

Operator comfort remained an area of focus, most notablythrough sound reduction. The noise level output from the drillhas been reduced, which not only lessens operator fatigue but isalso more pleasing to neighborhoods.

The D20x22 S3 has been upgraded to the common controlsystem currently used on larger drills. The system features a dig-ital display and improved onboard diagnostics, which allowoperators to customize the available drill information. The sys-tem design uses less wiring and fuses for greater reliability. AllS3 Navigator drills will have the new common control configu-ration, benefiting drill operators with the ability to operate avariety of drills and helping to lessen the time needed for train-ing.

The D20x22 S3 joins the current D20x22 Series II NavigatorHDD. The drills offer differing horsepower levels, and theSeries II model offers flexibility for contractors installing pipelarger than 4 in. (10.2 cm).

The D20x22 S3 marks the next step in the process of intro-ducing drills to satisfy a variety of operators and job sitedemands. This model will allow operators to capitalize on theexisting Navigator HDD line with more power and productivi-ty.

Through its Q5C ground-pene-trating radar system, US RadarInc., a manufacturer of subsurfaceimaging systems, delivers its sig-nature SmartGain digital clarity ata list price that’s just a little overhalf the cost of most competitiveunits.

“The US Radar Q5C unit isgoing to give contractors andmunicipalities that never consid-ered buying their own radar unitthe chance to put ground-penetrat-ing radar to work in their publicworks, environmental and utilitylocating efforts,” said RonLaBarca, president, US Radar Inc.

The US Radar Q5C modelincorporates SmartStack, an algo-rithm that takes advantage of spareprocessing power to improveimage quality and increase depthof penetration, especially in soilsthat tend to dissipate electricalenergy. StreetSmart onboard pro-cessing, also standard, eliminatesthe need for post-processing ofinformation so the operator can seeand evaluate data in real time

rather than go back to the office.“The cost of entry for the Q5C

makes it worthwhile for anyonewho’s been thinking about locating

to give it a try. Yet, this workhorsedelivers the most powerful GPR onthe market for locating utilities upto 15 feet deep,” LaBarca said.

Users Can Build On Base Unit

The basic Q5C operates at a fre-quency range of 300 to 1,300MHz. It comes standard with a 1.9GHz multi-core Intel Atom proces-sor and 10.4-in. daylight-readableLED color display. A single batterypowers the unit.

“Users can add capability boththrough hardware and softwareupgrades to build the base modelinto a top-shelf GPR unit,”LaBarca said.

He noted that, like other USRadar GPR units, a two-year war-ranty on parts and labor is standard,along with complimentary tele-phone and email technical support.

Although the Q5C model can beused for most GPR applications,LaBarca said he expects the pri-mary applications will be utilitylocating, infrastructure and naturalgas. This new US Radar modeladds to the lineup that alreadyincludes the Quantum Imager, theworld’s first triple-frequency GPRdevice and the choice of industryprofessionals.

Brokk 60, 400D: Small Enough for the Mightiest JobsAt a height of just 34.4 in. (87 cm), 2.75 in. (7 cm) lower

than its predecessor, the Brokk 60 weighs only 1,100 lbs.(499 kg), making it ideal for applications where space is lim-ited in industries as diverse as construction, demolition,metal processing, tunneling and nuclear.

The Brokk 60 also increases productivity with morebreaking force, faster movements and a new control system.Brokk incorporated major improvements to the control sys-tem that enhance the unit’s reliability, create smoother oper-ation and allow for continuous, accurate temperature andpressure monitoring. Improvements to the hydraulic system,which increased the unit’s flow rate from 4.8 to 5.8 gal. (18to 22 Lpm) per minute, allow the Brokk 60 to perform fasterwhile delivering 25 percent more power, according to themanufacturer.

“The Brokk 60 is a completely upgraded, state-of-the-artmachine,” said Martin Krupicka, CEO of Brokk AB. “Wehave incorporated several features that were previouslyfound only on our bigger machines, and they have provenvery valuable for everyday, reliable performance and opera-tion.”

In addition to its powerful system features, Brokkimproved the unit’s durability with the addition of a sturdysteel cover and a covered slewing table, both of which pro-tect internal components from debris. Brokk also incorporat-ed long-lasting, efficient LED lights to provide better illumi-nation to the work area.

The Brokk 60 maintains a horizontal reach of 8.2 ft. (2.5m) and a vertical reach of more than 10 ft. (3 m). It featuresthe same mounting plate as the Brokk 50 it replaces, so all

the same attachments — breakers, crushers, buckets andgrapples — are compatible. Like the Brokk 50, the Brokk 60can be transported in an ordinary passenger elevator and caneven maneuver up and down stairs.

Brokk 400DBrokk developed the diesel-powered 400D

with all the benefits of the older model 330D ina heavier-duty machine. The 400D deliversenhanced durability and faster performancefor applications where electricity is difficult toaccess, such as metal processing and tunnel-ing industries.

The 400D delivers a 60 percent increasein transport speed over the 330D. The unitalso boosts productivity with its new andimproved control system. The systemallows the operator to controlthe machine with quick, pre-cise movements for accuratedemolition and other com-plex tasks.

In addition to the unit’ssystem attributes, Brokkexpanded on its versa-tility with severalchanges to thephysical design.The new 400D hasa slightly bigger

envelope than the 330D, weighs approximately 2,200 lbs.(998 kg) more, and can reach out horizontally nearly 23 ft.(7 m). With a total weight of 12,125 lbs. (5,500 kg), it canhandle heavier attachments like the hard-hitting SB 552breaker. It also works well with attachments like crushers,

grapples, drills and scabblers that are usedwith its sibling machine, the electric-pow-ered Brokk 400. The unit also featuresenhanced stability and durability with itslarger undercarriage and sturdier steelhood. In addition, the 400D features apowerful new engine.

“The Brokk 400D will enable ourclients to perform new jobs that need itsstrength and reach in bigger furnaces andtunnels,” Krupicka said. “We proudlyintroduce our new machine, which main-tains Brokk’s technical and design devel-opment.”

Kwik-Trench Mini-Trenchers Work for Plumbing, MoreLittle Beaver’s Kwik-Trench mini-

trencher is offered in two models, theKT200B and KT2400B, both able to trenchup to 30-ft. (9 m) per minute. A compactdesign paired with durable construction andcomponents allows the Kwik-Trench totackle a multitude of projects, includinglandscape edging, root pruning, as well asinstallations of plumbing and drainage lines,low-voltage wiring, silt fences and sprinklersystems. Featuring carbide-tipped teeth anda powerful drive system, the mini-trencher isable to cut through tough surfaces such ascompacted clay, road fill, asphalt and treeroots up to 10 in. (25.4 cm) thick.

In each of its two easy-to-operate push-forward models, the Kwik-Trench worksquickly and efficiently to create clean, nar-row trenches. Featuring a triple V-belt drivesystem, the Kwik-Trench achieves rotationspeed up to 800-rpm. Precise cutting depth isachieved with a manual crank, while eachtrencher’s locking swivel wheel guides theunit, ensuring straight trenches. In additionto producing clean, precise results, theKwik-Trench is designed to minimize back-fill and cleanup time by depositing soilbeside the trench, according to the manufac-turer.

Powered by a 5.5-hp Honda engine, the

KT 200B is capable of achieving depths upto 8-in. (20 cm). The unit features 4 carbide-tipped teeth and produces trenches from 1-to 3-in. (2.5 to 7.6 cm) wide. Productive andpowerful in a lightweight and compact pack-

age, the KT 200B weighs in at just 265-lbs.(120 kg).

The KT 2400B unleashes 8-hp through itsHonda engine and achieves depths up to 12-in. (30.5 cm). Equipped with 8 carbide-

tipped cutting teeth, the mini-trencher pro-duces trenches from 1- to 4-in. (2.5 to 10 cm)wide. The larger of the two models, the KT2400B is still lightweight and manageable at430-lbs. (195 kg).

Both Kwik-Trench models feature a com-pact design to allow easier access into tightareas unreachable to full-size trenchers.Additionally, each model is mounted onsemi-pneumatic tires, making the Kwik-Trench safe to use on delicate lawns andturfs.

To protect the drivetrain from wear anddamage, a slip clutch is built into the hub ofthe cutter wheel. Heat-treated, hardenedsteel teeth are carbide tipped for superiorperformance and extra long life.

For added convenience, Little Beaveroffers an optional trailer to make transport-ing the Kwik-Trench a snap. The KT 2000tilt bed utility trailer is built for a load capac-ity of up to 1,000-lbs. (453.6 kg) and fits 2-in. (5 cm) towing balls. The trailer featuresspring axles, a 10-gauge diamond plate bed,and an axle lock and tie-downs.

By James McRaySPECIAL TO CEG

In 2011, Efficiency Production, Inc.— America’s Trench Box Builder —established the special operationsshoring division, staffed by an experi-enced team of slide rail system expertsand installers.

“The goal of the division is to useour engineering, manufacturing, andon-the-job experience to help contrac-tors obtain work and successfully com-plete it,” said Ken Forsberg, presidentof Efficiency Production. “We created‘Special Ops’ to act as an extension ofa contractor’s or municipali-ty’s estimating department.”

The division’s primarygoal is to help contractor’sobtain work. Special Opsaccomplishes this by:

• Reviewing project plansand selection of shoringequipment

• Providing written quota-tion and 3D submittal draw-ings of the proposed shoringsolution

• Conducting pre-con-struction onsite consultation

• Providing engineeringservices, including: tabulateddata, P.E. stamped drawings,and site specific-engineering

The secondary goal of thedivision is providing onsiteinstallation assistance.Speaking of the current andpast personnel of the depart-ment, Greg Ross, Special Ops’ directorand the company’s senior slide railinstaller since 2005, said, “Adding upthe combined experience of everyonein this room, I’m sure we’ve helpedinstall well over 1,000 slide rail sys-tems.

“We pride ourselves on being able toprovide timely delivery of equipmentand to respond promptly to unforeseenjob site conditions,” he said. “Plus, weare able to quickly make jobsite equip-ment changes if required, and of coursewe are always available to answerquestions; even after our installationparticipation is completed.”

Praise for the special operationsshoring division has been glowing,with great appreciation from contrac-tors for all that they do.

“Efficiency really over-performedwith the quality of support they pro-

vided us, especially by sending outthree shoring specialists who were hereseveral days helping to install the sys-tem,” said Dave Garno, project manag-er of Lambertville, Mich., contractorJD Construction.

“We prefer to use an Efficiency[Production manufactured] slide railsystem if we can,” said Joe Fischer, co-owner of Fischer Excavating, based inFreeport, Ill. “I usually have a fewideas on what might work for shoringon a particular project, but the firstthing I do is call the team inEfficiency’s special operations shoringdivision for suggestions,” said Fischer.

“On one recent project, a special opsspecialist came out to the site and wedicussed some ideas on how to shoretwo large pits for two new pump sta-tions,” continued Fischer. “Then with-in a short time, the specialist sent us aclean proposal with CAD drawing oftwo slide rail systems that would workfor both pump stations. And then itwas just a matter of finalizing a plan.”

Bergkamp’s MA30 Applies Treatment to Preserve Highways Bergkamp Inc., based in Salina,

Kan., offers the MA30 frictional mas-tic surface treatment applicator thatallows contractors and governmentagencies to apply frictional mastic sur-face treatment over highways, roads,parking lots and airport runways toprotect the surface and extend the lifeof the pavement. It applies a materialmix that is made to precise specifica-tion, which results in fewer operatorcalculations and on-the-job adjust-ments, minimizing operator trainingtime. The full-length ribbon mixerworks to maintain the proper materialconsistency, regardless of the truckengine speed during transport to thejob site. the frictional mastic surfacetreatment is then applied over theexisting pavement through a variable-width, low-pressure spray bar that hasside-shift capabilities.

Frictional mastic surface treatmentis a mixture of asphalt emulsion,increased levels of angular fine aggre-gates, recycled materials, polymers and cat-alysts. The purpose of frictional mastic sur-face treatment is to minimize future mainte-nance treatments and get traffic back on thepavement more quickly.

The MA30 features a steel 3,000-gal.(11,356 L) material tank, which contains ahydraulically driven, full-sweep ribbonmixer with counterflow mixing technologythat keeps the aggregates in suspension. In-

cab controls allow the driver to operate allsystems, including the mixerstart/stop/reverse and spray bar start/stop,height and width, side-shift and individualnozzle controls. Application is computer

controlled with an onboard systemthat ensures accurate application ratesby continuously varying the pumprate, based on the truck speed andspray width. Easy-access masticstrainers protect the pump and spraynozzles from clogging and potentialdamage by aggregates and solid mate-rial.

The MA30 offers a technologicallyadvanced low-pressure system thatoperates at less than 40 psi. It offerssingle or dual pump operation, withmore than 100 gpm (378.5 Lpm)delivered through the spray bar in sin-gle pump mode and over 200 gpm(757 Lpm) delivered in dual pumpmode. In dual pump operation, theproduct loads in less than 30 minutes.All systems are powered by PTO-driven hydraulic pumps. Thehydraulically adjustable spray barprovides double overlap spray widthsfrom 72 to 234 in. (183 to 594 cm) in18 in. (45.7 cm) increments.

Volvo Equipment SD75B, SD115B SoilCompactors Roll With the Punches

The SD75B and SD115B soil compactors are the latestTier IVFinal soil compactors from Volvo ConstructionEquipment. These versatile and intelligent machines helpoperators achieve the highest level of performance and effi-ciency possible, whatever the demands of the job, accordingto the manufacturer.

The advanced drum control system, for example, easilyallows the operator to adjust the frequency and amplitude,compensating for changing soiltypes and conditions. Two frequen-cy settings come as standard, butfive can be included as an option.High or low amplitude can beselected to adjust the drum’sdynamic force based on the job andmaterial depth. Meanwhile, theoptimized centrifugal force andauto-vibration feature enhance per-formance, ease of operation andproductivity.

The traction system providesenhanced climbing and stability indifficult applications, such as steepinclines or slippery surfaces, pre-venting wheel or drum spin forgradeability.

The SD75B and SD115B can beset up in three different configura-tions and are available with asmooth or padfoot drum. The com-pactor also can be quickly and eas-ily converted from a smooth drumby clamping on a padfoot shell —further improving versatility.

“These new models offer the per-fect mid-range size and exceptional versatility to accomplishany compaction job,” said Mark Eckert, compaction productmanager at Volvo Construction Equipment. “Whether formajor highway projects or for general site preparation, theSD75B and SD115B adapt to changes in conditions, ensur-ing the contractor can use it for any job that arises — no mat-ter the application or the terrain.”

Exceptionally EfficientThe Tier IV Final Volvo engine delivers high torque at low

rpm for reduced emissions and fuel consumption withoutcompromising on power. ECO mode now comes as standardon the SD75B and SD115B models and can achieve up to a40 percent reduction in fuel consumption by matchingengine speed to operation mode. Additionally, the intelligentdesign provides quicker ramp-up speeds at lower pressure,further increasing fuel efficiency.

The passive regeneration automatically cleans the filtersduring normal operation without any input from the operatoror negative impact on performance. The hydraulically driv-en fan with variable speed draws power only when needed,which reduces noise, improves operator comfort and resultsin a lower total cost of ownership.

Comfort and ControlThe B-Series compactors also help to promote high oper-

ator efficiency and productivity, due to a cab with excellentvisibility, grouped ergonomic controls and a comfortableenvironment. The ROPS/FOPS certified cab has floor-to-ceiling glass for a commanding view of the job site, withclear sightlines down to the forward drum. The fullyadjustable seat rotates and slides to further enhance visibilityand comfort. The new high-tech color operator displayshows operational information and key diagnostics, and is

easily visible at all times — even in bright sunlight, accord-ing to the manufacturer.

Robust and ReliableThe SD75B and SD115B are backed by the Volvo

Successful Projects…

Material Level, Paver Speed ProveEssential for Precision Asphalt Paving

This article is the second of a four-part series on pavingprovided by Volvo Construction Equipment.

Successful asphalt paving projects don’t happen by acci-dent. They are the result of careful planning and properpreparation. From proper paver setup to achieving optimummat temperature and conducting the rolling pattern at just theright time — each step in the process will affect the next.And attention to detail throughout the process can mean thedifference between getting a bonus and being delayed.

In the previous installment, best practices for paver setupwere shared. After ensuring the paver is in top working con-dition, the crew must then focus on the factors that will yieldthe best quality pavement. Material level and paver speedboth play a significant role in determining pavement quality.

Laying a Quality MatOn almost every asphalt paving project, the crew can

spend from a few minutes to nearly an hour setting up equip-ment, depending on the condition of the equipment and thecomplexity of the project. Pavers, compactors and MTVsmust all be prepped for the long hours of use to help ensureuptime. Once the equipment is in use, the paving crew canfine-tune operations in order to lay the best quality pave-ment.

The two most important factors for laying a quality matare all about consistency:

1. Consistent head of material in front of the screed 2. Consistent paving speed

Material LevelMore than 95 percent of all material faults in asphalt

paving are due to an improper head of material in front of thescreed. The “head of material” is the mass of paving mix thatlies directly in front of and spans the width of the screed. Ifthe head of material in front of the screed fluctuates widelyduring the course of paving, it is nearly impossible to pro-duce a level and smooth pavement surface.

“Too much or too little material affects how the screedrides and that translates to poor rideability,” said ChrisConnolly, operator training specialist of Volvo ConstructionEquipment.

If the head of material increases, then more material isbeing forced under the screed, causing it to rise. This fluctu-ation in mat depth translates into a wavy surface. If the headof material decreases, there will be less material passingunder the screed and supporting the weight of the screed. Thescreed will gradually drop, reducing the mat thickness andcausing major flaws in the mat.

The correct head of material should be constant across theentire width of the screed. A good visual cue is whether thematerial is even with the center of the auger shaft. Whilemonitoring material levels is the responsibility of the screedoperator, many machines are now equipped with automaticfeed systems that use sensors to automatically regulate theproper delivery and flow of material in front of the screed toensure smooth and consistent paving.

Paving SpeedPaving speed also has an impact on the quality of mat. In

an ideal paving operation, the paver will operate nonstopthroughout the day because a change in paving speed candirectly affect the ability to lay a uniform mat.

When selecting a paving speed, several considerationsshould be made. These include the number and size oftrucks, volume and output of the mixing plant, rolling andcompaction rates and crew capabilities, plus the distancefrom the mixing plant to the paver. The hot mix materialneeds to arrive at the site hot to allow for proper laydown andcompaction. It is important to select a speed that falls within

the limits of these considerations. Once speed is selected, itmust be consistently maintained. Ripples, waves and irregu-lar mat depth can occur when paving speed doesn’t remainrelatively consistent.

Speed limiters are available on some paver models to con-trol paving speed. The function is similar to cruise control foran automobile. A preferred paving speed is selected on thespeed limiter — 30 to 40 feet per minute for example — andthe paver is limited to that speed.

Changes in speed also create challenges with timing thedelivery of hot mix material in order to keep the hopper atleast a third full. Consequently, changes in paving speed arecommonly caused by trucks inconsistently arriving at the jobsite, or bumping the paver during the truck exchange. Eventhe smallest bump can create a depression behind andbeneath the screed. Subsequent rolling may not fix this sur-face defect and can often be felt by traffic after the fact. Toavoid negatively impacting the mat, truck drivers should stop1 to 2 feet in front of the paver, allowing the paver to initiatecontact.

With the paver properly set, and the mat laid with perfecthead and consistent speed, it’s time for the compaction oper-ation. Stay tuned for Part 3 of the series, which will coverbest practices for compaction.


More than 95 percent of allmaterial faults in asphaltpaving are due to animproper head of material in front of the screed.

Doosan’s DX300LL-5 Log Loader Provides Durability, Performance

Forestry professionals will be impressed with the durabil-ity, power and performance from the new Tier IV-compliantDoosan DX300LL-5 log loader. The “dash-5” modelreplaces the interim Tier IV (iT4) DX300LL-3 log loader.The DX300LL-5 is powered by a 270-net-horsepowerScania DC9 diesel engine, providing 27 percent more horse-power than the “dash-3” model.

The DX300LL-5 log loader is equipped with a fullyguarded, heavy-duty long undercarriage and upper structuredesigned specifically for forestry applications such as timberharvesting, skidding, forwarding and shovel logging. Itstracks feature heavy-duty links with double grouser shoesand full-length track guiding guards.

Operators also can get a good view from inside the logloader with a 4-ft. (1.2 m) cab riser with guarding. The cabriser can be hydraulically tilted for transport. Four optionalLED front working lights and two LED rear working lightsare mounted to the cab to provide plentiful light before sun-rise or after sunset.

DX300LL-5 log loader operators can monitor the logloader’s parameters, such as engine rpm, battery voltage, andfront and rear hydraulic pump pressure, while viewing therearview camera image on an improved 7-in. liquid-crystaldisplay (LCD) screen. An optional side camera is available,allowing both camera displays to be viewed at once.

To help save valuable diesel fuel, Doosan added an auto-shutdown system for use during non-working conditions.Log loader operators can configure the idle time before auto-shutdown from 3 to 60 minutes. When enabled, the featurewill shut down the log loader’s engine when the preset idletime is met.

New Machine UpdatesIn addition to auto shutdown, the Tier IV-compliant

Doosan DX300LL-5 log loader has the following updates:• Improved heel design works in tandem with a log grap-

ple• More robust front guard• Boom cylinder guard• Cab guard• Standard rock guards• Pattern change valve

OptionsFactory-installed options for the new DX300LL-5 log

loader include the following:• LED lights for brilliant nighttime visibility • Side camera with standard rear camera for improved

visibility• Straight travel pedal, which allows the operator to trav-

el in a straight line more easily• Block heater or diesel-powered coolant heater for cold-

weather starts• Fuel filler pump to assist in refueling when refueling

truck does not have pumping system

Tier IV SolutionThe Doosan DX300LL-5 complies with Tier IV emis-

sion standards with modified diesel engines and aftertreat-ment technologies. The engine is optimized for use with ahigh-pressure common-rail (HPCR) fuel delivery systemand a cooled exhaust gas recirculation (CEGR) system. Itutilizes a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to reduce partic-ulate matter (PM) and selective catalyst reduction (SCR)aftertreatment to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx).Additionally, a variety of aftertreatment systems have beenimplemented as part of the Tier IV compliance, such asdiesel exhaust fluid (DEF), which is used with SCR tech-nology.

Doosan TelematicsDoosan log loaders come with a standard three-year sub-

scription to Doosan Telematics, which allows equipmentowners and fleet managers to remotely monitor machinelocation, hours, fuel usage, engine idle versus work timeand error codes, as well as engine and hydraulic tempera-tures. Machines can be monitored via an online DoosanTelematics account. In addition, Doosan dealers can pro-vide improved customer support using the system byresponding to machine warning messages and alerts, trou-bleshooting machine issues, and then sending a field serv-ice vehicle to help with repairs and deliver the proper parts.

John Deere L-Series Tractor Loaders Boast Customer-Inspired Improvements

The 210L EP and 210L, the newest members of the JohnDeere L-Series lineup, boast several customer-inspiredimprovements that are ideal for earthwork, roadwork, landclearing and landscaping operations.

“These machines aren’t just modified backhoes. The210L EP and 210L are purpose built for tractor loader own-ers and their unique applications,” said Brian Hennings,product marketing manager, backhoes and tractor loaders,John Deere Construction & Forestry. “We’re seeing thesemachines being used more and more outside the WestCoast. Their versatility sets them apart on the job site.”

The L-Series meets today’s emission regulations througha rugged Final Tier IV/EU Stage IV PowerTech Plus dieselengine on the 210L (93 hp) and a certified ITIV/Stage III BJohn Deere PowerTech E engine on the 210L EP (70 hp).Both models boast a four-speed PowerShift transmissionthat allows smooth no-clutch fingertip shifting and directionchanges for fast work cycles.

Depending on intended use, each tractor loader modelcan be equipped with a canopy or an optional four-seasonair-conditioned/heated cab. Inside the cab, updates weremade to improve comfort and visibility. These include alarger right-hand armrest and increased seat rotation up to70 degrees (20 left and 50 right) for a better view of the boxblade and easier entry and exit from the cab. The tractorloaders also boast a new fender design and improved light-ing scheme for better visibility around the canopy. A premi-um LED package includes two front spotlights, two rear andtwo side floodlights.

An easy-view, multi-language monitor displays impor-tant operating information. A new “palm-on-top” loader-control grip increases operator comfort and provides finger-tip control of clutch disconnect momentary mechanical-front-wheel drive (MFWD) and other loader functions. On-

the-fly MFWD can be engaged to give extra traction in poorjob site conditions or to move heavy loads. An optional lim-ited-slip front axle delivers 65 percent of available power tothe tire with the best traction for true all-wheel-drive pullingpower.

A new hitch design makes it easier to position the boxblade over the pile for added versatility and productivity.Optional dual-tilt rear hydraulic cylinders provide greaterthree-point side-to-side hitch control of rear attachments.Both the 210L EP and 210L also can be outfitted with aquick-coupler to accept numerous attachments. The integralthree-point hitch and optional power takeoff (PTO) accom-modate a variety of Category 2 tools, such as disks, mow-ers, blades and box scrapers. Two rear ballast-weight pack-ages (700 and 1,500 lb.) increase versatility in variousloader applications.

Like their backhoe counterparts, L-Series tractor loadersalso boast the benefits of reliability and uptime. Same-sideground-level service points help speed daily checks. A two-position tilt hood provides same-side ground-level access toengine and transmission dipsticks, engine-oil fill, fuel andair filters, and coolant reservoir. The fuel fill area also isnearby.

Operators looking to get the most out of their tractorloader can rely on Ultimate Uptime featuring John DeereWorkSight. With Ultimate Uptime, operators receive prede-livery and follow-up inspections; three years of JDLinktelematics, machine heath prognostics and remote diagnos-tics, and programming capability; and the ability to adddealer-provided uptime solutions to customize the packageto individual needs.

RESPECTFULLY DISREGARDS CONVENTIONAL EXCAVATOR WISDOM.Plenty of people make compact excavators. But none can say they engineered the first mini-excavator, zero tail swing excavator, swing-boom excavator and rubber-tracked excavator. At Yanmar, we simply can’t stop innovating. That’s why our nine excavators – seven with true zero tail swing – are each purpose-built to overcome the most challenging conditions, work with unparalleled power and conserve fuel. So, if you just want to play around on your jobsite, go get any old excavator. BUT IF YOU’D RATHER RULE YOUR JOBSITE, GET A YANMAR.
