The 80cm drum roller is a consistently busy item of equipment for us so we bought this new Bomag 80AD-5 to keep up with demand.

It arrived from Leach Lewis Plant on Friday 2nd March and was booked for its first hire immediately.
The 80AD-5 is designed with the operator firmly in mind. According to Bomag:

“A spacious driver’s platform, intuitive operation, perfect visibility, easy handling and the best sprinkler system in its class, combine to give impressive performance capability. The impressive compaction output is based on a powerful exciter system – well proven over many years, plus efficient high performance hydraulic and drive systems.”

Last month the remainder of the order for seven new Ingersoll Rand 7/41 compressors arrived.

We now own a fleet of latest spec. compressors that we can rightly be proud of.

In December we took delivery of another new Kubota KX71-3 mini excavator, supplied as always by Leach Lewis Plant.

What Kubota say about their machine:

“Operate the KX71-3 mini-excavator’s control levers and you’ve got the most efficient, on-the-job performance within your hands. That’s because the KX71-3 delivers the largest digging depth and reach of all mini-excavators with a long arm in its weight category. Even with the long arm, it amazingly generates the largest power in its class for both arm and bucket digging. Furthermore, the KX71-3’s lifting power is so strong. Together with a host of robust features that complete the package, making the KX71-3 the stand-alone leader in performance.”
