Mini Diggers
Mini Diggers are a machine is ideally suited for working in back gardens or other areas with a standard 750mm (2’6”) gate or doorway. The tracks retract to get through the gate and then are expanded to give the machine extra stability
Telescope Handlers
Telescopic handler
Telescopic handler 4x4A telescopic handler, or telehandler, is a machine widely used in agriculture and industry. It is similar in appearance and function to a forklift but is more a crane than forklift, with the increased versatility of a single telescopic boom that can extend forwards and upwards from the vehicle. On the end of the boom the operator can fit one of several attachments, such as a bucket, pallet forks, muck grab, or lift table.
The most common attachment for a tele-handler is pallet forks and the most common application is to move loads to and from places unreachable for a conventional forklift. For example, telehandlers have the ability to remove palletized cargo from within a trailer and to place loads on rooftops and other high places. The latter application would otherwise require a crane, which is not always practical or time-efficient
Excavators
Excavators are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, bucket and cab on a rotating platform (known as the "house"). The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. All movement and functions of the excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, be it with rams or motors. Their design is a natural progression from the steam shovel
Lighting Towers
Lighting Towers with four 1000watt metal halide lamps provide light to a wider work area. With hydraulically operated masts and 360degree mast rotation, these towerlights are suitable for any operation and their compact design ensures that the units can be easily transported in bulk.
Generators and compressors
lighting towers are impractical to use or beyond your budget, incorporating a 5m pneumatic mast, the unit can be located and operational in minutes, we offer a choice of generators and lighting options to suit most budgets, open frame, silenced and super silenced petrol generators, diesel generators and generators with twin masts for added lighting
Dumpers
A dumper is a vehicle designed for carrying bulk material, often on building sites. Dumpers are distinguished from dump trucks by configuration: a dumper is usually an open 4-wheeled vehicle with the load skip in front of the driver, while a dump truck has its cab in front of the load. The skip can tip to dump the load; this is where the name dumper comes from. They are normally diesel powered. A towing eye is fitted for secondary use as a site tractor. Dumpers with rubber tracks are used in special circumstances and are popular in some countries
