Nathan Medcalf // Editor editor@equipmentjournal.com Welcome to issue #17 Landscape Equipment. Welcome to the last issue of the year. Just because the year is winding down, that doesn’t mean we are. We have been on location at a number of diverse industry events, in- cluding The Buildings Show, the Ontario Hot Mix Paving Association Fall Seminar, the Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships national conference, the Canadian Association of Equipment Distributors Ontario holiday season power breakfast, the Ritchie Bros. Toronto December auction, and a Diamond Mowers demonstration organized by Colvoy Equipment. You can read about all of these events in this issue. This issue also contains one feature that is a year in the making—The Equipment Journal 2015 Top 100 Machines & Attachments (page A11). Equipment Journal has produced this list every December for four years. And, of course, we have a varied selection of landscape equipment. Beginning in 2016, Equipment Journal will produce a paper that focuses on two product categories or markets. Having just 17 focuses each year just wasn’t enough to spotlight all the markets Equipment Journal serves. This allows us to give more attention to machines and markets that have always been present in Equipment Journal, but have never had its own spotlight. If you have a print story idea or press release or video idea, please send it to me, at: editor@equipmentjournal.com We are also available on Twitter at EQJnews. Follow us for t he latest equ ipment-related news. Happy holidays and we wish you the best in the new year.

Located at Vale Creighton Mine near Sudbury, Ontario, the SNOLAB laboratory is 2 kilometres (1.24 miles) u nderg rou nd, w h ich is equivalent to four and a half Empire State Buildings stacked top to bottom. SNOLAB is situated so deep underground to prevent cosmic radiation from reaching the labs. Scientists perform experiments on dark matter, neutrinos, low-background counting and genomics. The lab opened in 2012 and construction on A3 DECEMBER 21, 2015 | PARTS process. Beyond the transportation, the environment must also be extremely clean to conduct the experiments; this means the scissor lifts must also be squeaky clean. “E v en t hou g h one of the Skyjacks we supplied was brand new, both machines had to be completely scrubbed down before they were brought underground,” Campeau said. “When they arrived on site, the machines h ad t o b e t r a n s p or t e d through the 2.0-km drift by stone-boat, which is a large piece of steel the machines A DIFFICULT were pulled on. Once the COMMUTE SNOLAB Getting the machines down Skyjacks arrived at the lab, to the SNOLAB was a difficult they had to be scrubbed down yet again to remove any dust.” With a working height of 7.6 metres (25 feet), weight capacity of 249 kilograms (550 pounds) and 25% gradeability, the SJIII 3219 electric scissor lifts are ideal for versatile applications. The lifts also features 0.91-metre (3-foot) rollout extension decks and steel swing-out component trays to provide unrestricted maintenance access. new experiment sites is set to continue through 2017. Since 2013, two SJIII 3219 electric scissor lifts have been helping with construction of new specialized experiments. “The experiments going on at SNOLAB all have their own caverns in the mine, and it’s vital that all machines used underground are spotless,” explained Dan Campeau, President of North Rock Rentals, the rental company that is supplying SNOLAB with the aerial work platforms. The SNOLAB laboratory is located at Vale Creighton Mine near Sudbury, Ontario, two kilometres undeground.

They have since retired, but the company has stayed family-owned. The current owners include Doug Valentino (Peter’s son-in-law), Gary Brandner (Lloyed’s brother) and new junior partners Chad Valentino (Doug’s son) and Jesse Oliver (Robert’s son). The company has always owned Gomaco three-track Commander IIIs for their curb and gutter and sidewalk projects. After the new junior partners joined Valley Curbing, they set their sights on a new machine, and collaborated with the existing owners to spec out their own Next Generation Commander III. They worked with their local Gomaco distributor in British Columbia, Lonetrack Equipment Inc., to purchase the new machine. “The next generation of Valley Curbing, Chad and I, we were the ones who chose the Next Generation Commander III because of its new features and technology,” Jesse Oliver, Partner/ Foreman for Valley Curbing, said. “We have always run a Commander III. It has the power that is required for us on a lot of these demanding jobs. Its durability is key. We can’t be in a small community in southern British Columbia, hours away from necessary parts, and have it breakdown. That just can’t happen and that’s never been a problem with the Commander III.” To prepare for the arrival of the new machine, Oliver and three others from his company travelled to Gomaco University for the week-long three-track Commander III class early this winter. The courses combine classroom time with hands-on shop experience. This trip was Oliver’s third time attending Gomaco University. “Even if you’re running an older machine, you learn little things just by talking and listening to other contractors,” Oliver said. “The classes always give a good foundation of knowledge for us to build on. It really makes my guys feel good to go down and just be a part of it, and I think it gives them a sense of professionalism when they go to the school.” Valley Curbing’s Next Generation Commander III made a stop in Las Vegas, Nevada, and was one of the featured machines in Gomaco’s World of Concrete booth in February. From Las Vegas, it was delivered to Kelowna and immediately put to work on the Lakes Subdivision in the lake country of Winfield, British Columbia. It’s a new development that sits up high overlooking Okanagan Lake, Kalamalka Lake, and Wood Lake.

Toronto December 2015 Auction The latest Ritchie Bros. Toronto auction, December 7-8, featured about 190 truck tractors, 165 trailers, and 60 van trucks. Overall, the company sold more than 2,100 trucks and equipment items to the highest bidders, without minimum bids or reserve prices. “Our last Toronto auction of 2015 features one of the nicest selections of trucks a nd t ra i lers we’ve ever sold in Ontario,” said Anna Sgro, Senior Vice President (Canada East), Ritchie Bros. “We also have a great selection of construction, lifting and material handling equipment, and more.” Equipment will be sold for 390+ owners, including a selection of late-model truck tractors and trailers for Toronto-based TBG Environmental Inc., in operation since 1997. “The trucks we’re selling were purchased from Ritchie Bros. just last year and the trailers were purchased brand new. Both were used for just one contract, which ends December 1, so we won’t need them anymore. They are well-maintained and ready to go to work for new ow ners,” said Mark Bradley, CEO of TBG Environmental. “I’ve bought and sold with Ritchie Bros. many times over the years as projects start and finish. It’s an easy way to scale up and down quickly to suit the individual needs of a project. With Ritchie Bros. you have access to a great selection of used equipment at a fair price for both buyer and seller.” The auction also featured about 75 compactors, 60 excavators, 30 skid steer loaders, 25 wheel loaders, 110 scissor lifts, 45 boom lifts, and 20 tractors. Some notable equipment includes a 2005 Tadano TT800XXL4 8x4x4 80-ton hydraulic truck crane, a 2015 Caterpillar 336F L hydraulic excavator, a 2014 Komatsu PC290LC-10 hydraulic excavator, and three 2011 John Deere 400D 6x6 articulated dump trucks. The Ritchie Bros. final Toronto auction of 2015 features one of the nicest selections of trucks and trailers the company has ever sold in Ontario. More than 400 trucks/trailers were sold over the two-day auction (December 7-8). START IT UP. YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR YOUR BUSINESS PURR.

This year, we have done one thing different; we have marked every entry that at least one person nominated. Overall, a total of 30 nominated machines/attachments made the top 100 list. Machines/attachments don't need to be nominated to be in the top 100, but it does make sure that we are aware of it when we compare machines and attachments. To be considered for this list, a machine/attachment had to meet three criteria: »» It must serve the heavy equipment industry »» It must have been announced between November 1, 2014, and October 31, 2015 »» It must be available in Canada Just like last year, machines are grouped together by product category when at least two machines (usually) of the same product category made the list. Machines on the list who are the only representative of their product category are listed under “Other”. When multiple machines fall into the same application or industry, but don't fit into a product category, then those machines are grouped together. All attachments are grouped together regardless of product category or application. Machines/attachments are not ranked within the top 100 or within their product category. Entries are decided upon a pass/fail system where they either are one of the top 100 or they are not. Congratulations to all the manufacturers whose products are on the Equipment Journal 2015 Top 100 Machines & Attachments, and thank you to everyone who nominated a machine or attachment.

I love the new G+ control system, its screen, control dials and buttons. Plus, the G+ diagnostics are really good. I can go in and easily diagnose the machine with all of the feedback available. “I like the fact that I can just hit the button and with cruise control, the machine will rev itself down. I don’t have to jog the throttle down, I just track it, and the machine remembers what speed it was at before it stopped. That works great. Its smoothness of travel is just really good and the machine holds tight to the line.” Since its arrival, Valley Curbing has kept their Next Generation Commander III busy on several different projects slipforming a variety of curb and gutter profiles in British Columbia. “It’s really a user-friendly machine, and after just one day with it, we’ve been at full comfort level and full production capacity,” Oliver said. “I’ve been running Gomaco machines for 15 plus years and I won’t go anywhere but Gomaco.

Nanos conducted focus groups with several hundred people to get their gut-feel of P3s. “One of their first things we picked up on is that there is a certain level of sophistication among people on the subject of P3s.” says Nanos. “They used phrases like ‘the governement can leverage the private sector to get what they want’ and talked of risk management. “People believe the P3 model means infrastructure projects will be completed more quickly. They believe that it is part of corporate culture to make sure timelines are met, and that there is a greater likelihood a project will be completed on time,” explains Nanos. They also believe that projects delivered through a P3 moel are more likely to be innovative.” Among critics, Nanos reports even a begrudging acknowledgement that P3s deliver. “It is hard to argue with national outcomes.” Nanos also noted that people believe that companies know how to plan for and manage At the Canadian Centre for Public-Private Partnerships National Conference, Nick Nanos of Nanos Research Group of Companies delivered a presentation on people’s attitudes toward P3s. “People are disgruntled with governments, and they are worried about governments’ ability to deliver the infrastructure and services that they want,” says Nanos. risk better than a government. “Its part of their culture,” says Nanos. However, people didn’t express only positives. “On the negative side of the ledger, there are a lot of questions about transparency. ‘We want a web site about the procurement process’, they said. ‘Would you visit such a web site if one existed?’ we asked. ‘No,’ they replied. ‘We just want to know that such a web site exists’.” In the focus group, participants were asked about how they feel about the number of international companies de- livering P3s in Canada. “From a public acceptance point of view, people want a mix. They don’t mind international companies being involved, but, if the P3 had a local partner, that would be ideal, because local partners are invested in their communities. Local companies want to go good work not just to be successful, but because they want the project to be a shining beacon of what they can do.” In conclusion, people are usually agnostic to how a project gets delivered or who delivers it, says Nanos. “‘Just as long as my taxes don’t go up.’” Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Bourdage Equipment, based out of Kemptville, Ontario, loves his Ditch Witch SK755 mini loader. “I love the machine’s speed,” he says. “As well, the operator stands high on the machine for better visibility and for staying out of the mud. And, the platform is mounted on a suspension so it gives a smoother ride on rough terrain. Plus, the fuel tank is huge. I don’t fill it up often compared to my previous machine. With the SK755, I can easily work a full day.” F. Bourdage Equipment offers a number of landscape services and has several small equipment though the SK755 is his only Ditch Witch machine. Bourdage purchased the machine in January 2015 from Brandt Tractor, the Ditch Witch dealer for Canada. “If I’m grading, I can lock the position of the blade or bucket, when travelling backward and forward,” says Bourdage. “So, I can make it really nice in just two to three passes. By kicking it into turbo, I can complete the work even faster.” (Turbo is only available as an option on the SK755 in Canada.) The machine’s ergonomic operator’s station comes standard with dual lever ground drive controls or the option of a single lever joystick. Two-way auxiliary control foot pedal enables you to maintain hydraulic flow to the attachment with the pedal, freeing up your hands to control depth and ground speed. “When using the auger, for example, I can lock it and do something else. The machine holds the attachment where it needs to be. When I release the pedal, the machine returns to neutral,” says Bourdage. The SK755 accepts more than 70 attachments for a wide range of landscaping, utility, plumbing, and other underground construction tasks. An 81-inch hinge-pin height enables loading of taller trucks. An efficient, low-maintenance 24.5 kW (32.8 hp) Kubota diesel engines provides outstanding power for all machine functions. A belt-free design eliminates worries about slipping, squeaking, and breaking. The machine is easy to start in cold weather,” says Bourdage. “I leave it outside overnight, so getting it running in the morning moves my start time forward.” The machine’s high-drive track system features bolton sprockets and wide track rollers for greater stability, longer track life, and easy maintenance. A low-maintenance track tensioning system features a grease cylinder for easy adjustment and track removal, delivering longer life and minimizing downtime. “Just tighten it with a gauge, put grease gun on it, unscrew the cap, put gauge on it, and hook up the grease gun. That’s it,” explains Bourdage. B3 B4 | DECEMBER 21, 2015 @EQJNEWS PROCESSING BUCKETS 4 Models Available Ideally suited for 10-50 ton excavators & 6-19 wheel loaders.

Our goal is to exceed your expectations! New Compact High-Flow 4DDS Auger Drive Delivers Performance, Higher Productivity With a maximum output torque of 4,180 ft-lbs, the new Digga Compact High-Flow 4DDS Auger Drive, manufactured by Iowa-based Digga North America, delivers faster, more powerful performance than comparable units, claims the company. The result of more than 30 years of experience in the design and manufacture of planetary gearboxes and drives, the Digga 4DDS Drilling Drive is engineered for use on the latest, most powerful skid steer loaders, backhoes and mini-excavators on the market today. The 4DDS will handle high flows of up to 159 litres per minute (42 gpm), providing output speeds of up to 108 rpm. The result is an ideal balance of torque and speed for faster production and a greater return on investment. The 4DDS auger drive’s high-efficiency Digga-designed motor system allows more of the carrier machine’s horsepower to be utilized in delivering power to the ground for faster drilling and better spin-off speeds, allowing operators to more quickly drill larger-diameter holes in harsh ground conditions. The motor features TRI-CITY EQUIPMENT an integrated pressure relief valve that eliminates the need for bulky valve blocks, while reducing many potential leak points. And the sleek, compact gearbox design ensures that the drive can fit into a 10-in-diameter hole, providing deeper penetration without the need for extensions, for more efficient operation. Because it can handle flows from 30 to 159 litres per minute (8 to 42 gpm), the 4DDS is truly versatile, fitting a wide range of skid steers (including high flow), backhoes, and mini-excavators. Additional features of the 4DDS include a two-piece shaft design that isolates the planetary gears from pushing, pulling, and bending forces, without increasing the load on the bearings. With the highest shaft pull-out rating in the industry and an output shaft seal that can be replaced without disassembly of the planetary gearbox, the 4DDS will experience less machine downtime. The sleek, compact gearbox design on the Digga Compact High-Flow 4DDS Auger Drive ensures that the drive can fit into a 10-inch-diameter hole, providing deeper penetration without the need for extensions, All Equipment For SALE/RENT.

The utility vehicles feature a new 18-kW (24-hp) Kohler diesel engine—the same engine used to power the MY15 3400 and 3400XL models. The 3600 and 3650 offer industry-leading payload and towing capacity, e x c ept ion a l du r abi l it y and optimal comfort yearr ou nd , c l a i m s B ob c at . Additionally, the 3650 takes utility vehicle versatility to a new level with the ability to operate front-mounted power-take-off (PTO) and non-PTO attachments. The 3600 and 3650 utilit y veh icles ca n ha nd le and haul more materials for grounds maintenance professionals, agriculture producers or homeowners with acreage. Hydrostatic drive is ideal for tasks that require repetitive back and forth movements, such as hauling, mowing, sweeping, and snow removal. Operators can drive forward or reverse by pressing their toe or heel to the travel pedal. The vehicles can drive forward to a ma x imum top speed of 50 km/h (30 mph). OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE A hydrostatic transmission system offers operators the best of both worlds by combining smooth driva bi l it y w it h a du r a ble suspension. The operator can choose the setting that matches the load requirements to achieve optimum comfort and traction without sacrificing durability. Another characteristic of the hydrostatic system is dynamic braking. When the operator lets up on the travel pedal, a valve in the drive motor closes—blocking the flow of oil—and slowing the machine down. This dynamic braking feature makes the utility vehicles easier to control when under load. To achieve good payload capacity for towing and hauling, the 3600 and 3650 utility vehicles feature independent front dual A-arm suspension with rear de Dion suspen- sion. This feature improves the vehicle’s ride comfort and provides improved stability to haul and tow heavy loads. Operators can choose between low- or high-range speeds for towing heavy loads or moving light loads at faster speeds. AMPLE COMFORT FEATURES Comfortably transporting passengers is primary benefit of the 3600 and 3650 utility vehicles. Tilt steering, ample legroom and foot space and three-passenger bench front seat come standard on the 3600. The 3650 comes standard with bucket seats and integrated controls for the unique Multi-Attachment X-Change (M.A.X.) system. The M.A.X. system, which provides integration and versat ilit y not found on ordinary utility vehicles. The 3650 has the capability of powering front-mounted PTO-driven attachments, including an angle broom, mower and snowblower, as well as non-PTO attachments such as a bucket, g rapple, pallet fork and snow blade. Seven attachments, combined w ith a maximum lift height of 610 mm (24 inches) and rated lift capacit y of 225 k ilograms (500 pounds), allow the 3650 to excel at tasks such as personal property m a i nten a nc e, c lea r i ng snow, and moving palletized materials. For even more productivity, a 60-gallon sprayer accessory can be mounted in the utility vehicle cargo box. The cargo box’s composite material makes it more durable than metallic boxes in order to handle tough loads, retain strength, and look good for years. For better attachment control, operators can utilize the throttle independent of the travel control pedal. This feature allows operators to set the engine speed with a throttle rather than having to use the accelerator pedal to increase engine rpm. Separating the two functions gives operators the freedom to run powered attachments more efficiently with the rpm they require yet at low travel speeds. UPTIME PROTECTION Hydrostatic-drive utility vehicles use a single twospeed motor with fewer parts, reducing maintenance costs for owners. A feature called automatic engine shutdown is standard for both models. The engine in the new utility vehicles will automatically shut itself down if it experiences high engine coolant temperature or high hydraulic oil temperature. Comfortably transporting passengers is the primary benefit of the 3600 and 3650 utility vehicles.

The TR340 rounds out the Case lineup of large-frame CTLs, now providing customers with both a radial-lift (TR340) and vertical-lift (TV380) design to choose from in the larger footprint. This combination of size, strength, and flotation is ideal in earthmoving applications that require low ground pressure/minimal ground disturbance. The new Tier 4 Final models feature best-in-class torque, breakout force, and standard auxiliary hydraulic flow, as well as the industry’s widest cab with best-in-class 360degree visibility, claims Case. The Case SCR solution is provided by Fiat Powertrain Technologies (a CNH Industrial company) and has proven itself in on-road trucking, heavy earthmoving and agricultural applications. The technology is now being outfitted to benefit smaller engine ranges, including CTLs. “The SCR solution is easy and relatively hands-off – operators who remember to top off their DEF tank while refuelling will notice no other day-to-day changes,” says Warren Anderson, Brand Marketing Manager, Case Construction Equipment. “There is no diesel particulate filter (DPF) to maintain or replace, and SCR allows for a more efficient use of fuel as all diesel is consumed in productive effort instead of regeneration.” SCR is an after-treatment system that lowers exhaust temperatures and does not use fuel to burn off particulate matter. SCR technology is more efficient and requires less maintenance than DPFs, as it does not require filter replacement or upkeep, explains Case. It also removes complexity for operators and maintenance staff by eliminating regeneration associated with DPFs. HEAVY-DUTY FEATURES Case offers new heavy-duty features on each model as standard equipment. This includes a heavy-duty 950 CCA battery for consistent starts in cold weather, a more robust rear door for added Hydraulic quick couplers allow operators to quickly change attachments from the cab, while Connect Under Pressure (CUP) manifolds require no tools to connect or disconnect hydraulic lines. protection, industry-exclusive standard front and side lighting for working all hours of the day, a block heater and an easy-access remote jump-start. These features add strength and reliability in all working conditions. EZ-EH CONTROLS ALLOW FLEXIBILITY The TR340 and TV380 offer an EZ-EH (electro-hydraulic) setup menu with nine adjustable speed and control sensitivity settings that can be adjusted effortlessly as applications change. This allows the operator to match controls to their preference for comfort and greater productivity. A single rocker switch alternates between the Case “H” The cab-forward design on Case Alpha Series loaders provide good site lines down to the bucket edge, curb lines and to the rear of the machine. operating pattern and ISO pattern controls for operators who are comfortable with one style or the other. New operator handles with industry-exclusive detents improve controllability and feathering by providing greater responsiveness to the actions/movement of the machine. fewer moving parts than suspension track systems, making it more durable and easier to maintain. The new CTLs feature triple flange rollers, which help prevent de-tracking on inclines by using dozer-style rollers with a larger inner-diameter flange positioned between the track lugs. UNDERCARRIAGE OFFERS STABILITY AND PERFORMANCE All Case Alpha Series compact track loaders feature a dozer-style undercarriage, designed for stability on steep slopes and excellent performance in muddy and sandy terrain. The rigid track frame features COMFORT FOR THE OPERATOR The TR340 and T V380 offer one of the largest cabs in the industr y at nearly 92 mm (36 inches) wide. It features an enclosed, fully sea led cab pressu r i zed against noise and dust. The cab-forward design provides good site lines down to the bucket edge, curb lines and to the rear of the machine. Features that further improve visibility include standard heavy-duty front and side lights, a skylight, ultra-narrow wire side screens, and a large and curved rear window. MAINTENANCE MADE EASY Routine service points are all located at the rear of each machine, so operators can quickly access the engine, filters and fill points. The battery is now housed behind its own side-entry panel at the rear of the machine for easy access and service.

Tools equipped with the new battery prototype will be able to share valuable information about themselves to their user. The battery prototype can easily be paired with an operator’s smartphone or a smart watch, to either provide the operator direct information, or to pass on information to other members of the team, such as other operators, managers, technicians, or dealers. “Battery and connectivity constitute the biggest leap in our industry since motorizing outdoor products,” says Kai Wärn, CEO and President of the Husqvarna Group. “The connected battery and our concept hedge trimmer demonstrate Husqvarna’s commitment to pioneer high performing battery products and leverage the possibilities of the Internet of Things.” MULTIPLE BENEFITS OF REAL-TIME DATA The requirement for landscapers to increase productivity and end-results calls for high-performing and efficient tools. When powering tools with intelligence, landscapers can start developing new ways of working. For example, avoiding downtime by shifting from reactive maintenance if a machine breaks down, to proactive maintenance, as the tools themselves can alert and prepare managers and technicians when they need service. Other examples of opportunities from real-time data provided by the connected battery prototype: Improving skills. Tools can give direct feedback and guidance on how to use them, helping operators to refine their technique as well as help beginners use the tool in a professional and optimized way faster. Improving safety. The new battery opens up new opportunities to improve user safety, as well as to prevent theft by locking your machine so someone else cannot use it. Improving team communications. Getting an instant overview enables team leaders to go from ‘how did we do today’ to ‘how are we doing right now’ and thus be more flexible in adjusting directives or allocating resources differently if something unexpected happens. Improving planning. With the data and insights provided by the connected battery, team leaders will have better intelligence to support their planning, both short and long term. The prototype of the connected battery and the Husqvarna Ramus concept hedge trimmer was unveiled on September 30 at an international event about the New Heavy-Duty Rancher Body Designed for Maximum Durability Rugby Manufacturing recently introduced an all-new Rugby HD Rancher Body, which is suited for heavier duty construction and landscape applications, as well as oil field operations. Designed for maximum durability, the HD Rancher offers several enhanced features including an upgraded 4.8-mm (0.2-inch) tread plate floor, seven gauge formed crossmembers with 305-mm (12-inch) spacing, 12-gauge bulkhead sheet and a 9.5-mm (0.4-inch) tie down rail. The HD Rancher is also available with a B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch that allows a flat surface with no cutouts in the floor. Five models of the new Rugby HD Rancher are available ranging in length from 9.25 feet to 12 feet (2.82 to 3.66 metres). future of landscaping, held by Husqvarna in Antwerp, Belgium. The prototype of the connected battery is currently patent-pending and further details are to be defined. HUSQVARNA FLEET SERVICES Husqvarna deployed connectivity to outdoor power products first in 2014 with the introduction of ‘Husqvarna Fleet Services’, an online service platform that supports landscaping professionals with data from smart sensors added on to products. The aim is to integrate the new connected battery with Husqvarna Fleet Services when available to the market. And just now, Husqvarna is launching a smartphone app version of Husqvarna Fleet Services that further supports work in the field and increases crew involvement. For example, the new app allows team leaders and operators to access assignment details on the map and even record and submit new business opportunities identified by the operators while working in the field. To manifest the belief in the potential from battery and connectivity, Husqvarna has also created ‘Husqvarna Ramus’—an intelligent and super light futuristic concept hedge trimmer that employs the same technology as in Husqvarna’s connected battery prototype.

The Bobcat® MT85 boasts more power, increased lifting capabilities, additional stability and durable components to help operators efficiently complete everyday or challenging tasks in limited-space jobsites. Bobcat MT85 mini track loaders are designed for professionals in landscaping and rental, followed by construction, buildings and grounds, and agriculture applications. These individuals will benefit from the new mini track loader and its attachment versatility. Owners can use the MT85 as a stand-alone machine or pair it with other Bobcat compact equipment to efficiently complete a variety of projects. The MT85 has a 35% higher rated operating capacity (ROC) than prior mini track loader iterations—rated at 850 pounds (383 kilograms)—to lift, carry, and dump materials. For additional productivity, MT85 operators can lift materials higher with an increase of 12% in lift height. For hard digging conditions, the lift arm breakout force has been increased by 29% from the smaller MT55 mini track loader. Operators can accomplish more than previous iterations of Bobcat mini track loaders, thanks to an efficient hydraulic system that produces fast cycle times, impressive tractive effort, strong hydraulic breakout force, and exceptional pushing and digging abilities. Built with the same standards that Bobcat compact equipment owners have come to expect from the industry leader, the MT85 is a dependable and rugged mini track loader. Bobcat engineers designed the new MT85 based on the similar mini track loaders that have been popular machines for more than a decade. Input from Bobcat mini track loader customers led the company to design a machine that is taller, with greater ground clearance and an additional 6 inches of track length on the ground for added stability, without sacrificing the quality design aspects from prior iterations. A change from prior Bobcat mini track loaders, the new ALBERTA Acheson 877.948.3515 Calgary 800.342.6523 Fort McMurray 855.799.4201 Grande Prairie 888.513.9919 Red Deer 866.950.3473 ATLANTIC Dartmouth 800.565.1916 Moncton 800.332.3338 Mount Pearl 888.542.2202 ONTARIO Grimsby 800.668.9575 Kitchener 800.265.2488 London 800.265.4762 Mississauga 800.268.7004 Orillia 855.325.5290 Ottawa 800.822.3308 Sudbury 800.267.9833 Thunder Bay 800.465.5080 QUEBEC Baie-Comeau 866.996.3091 Boucherville 877.674.8380 Chicoutimi 800.323.1724 Laval 800.363.6789 St-Augustin 800.463.2662 Trois-Rivieres 855.840.0828 Val d’Or 800.561.4192 MT85 is designed with dual ISO joystick controls. The loader’s drive function is controlled by the left-hand joystick. The right-hand joystick controls the loader’s lift and tilt functions. Gauges and dials on the loader’s dash panel remain unchanged from the MT55. A new operator presence/ safety pedal regulates the auxiliary hydraulic flow for use with approved attachments. The pedal must be engaged when the operator is using an attachment with detent hydraulic flow, such as trenching, snowblowing, digging holes with an auger or pushing / sweeping material with an angle broom. RIDE-ON PLATFORM A standard ride-on platform gives operators better visibility to the front-mounted attachment, such as the loader bucket’s cutting edges, and the work area to help them be more productive. The platform for the MT85 was designed to help operators easily access the mini track loader controls, especially for taller operators, thereby reducing operator fatigue. Additional comfort features include a roller on the back of the loader frame to help reduce vibration and provide a smoother ride; standard hip pads; larger grab handles for getting on and off of the loader; and a cup holder. A storage compartment is located on the left side of the operator for convenience. Another performance benefit of the new ride-on platform is a higher forward travel speed of 4 mph—an increase of 23%—and 2.3 mph when operating in reverse. Increased travel speed is particularly useful in liftand-carry applications where the operator needs to move bulk materials from point A to point B. Bobcat MT85 mini track loader operators can easily access the engine compartment for routine maintenance. The loader’s drivetrain, service points and cooling package remain the same as the smaller MT55 mini track loader, making it easy for prior Bobcat mini track loader operators to easily identify and service routine maintenance items. Also unchanged from prior iterations of Bobcat mini track loaders is the spring tension track system. After years of proven reliability on smaller mini track loaders, The MT85 has a 35% higher rated operating capacity (ROC) than prior mini track loader iterations—rated at 850 pounds (383 kilograms)—to lift, carry, and dump materials. this industry proven system will be adapted on the MT85. A new option for the MT85 mini track loader is the common industry interface (CII). The CII will allow customers who are accustomed to this pin on design to retain the familiarity of their chosen interface and have it matched to a Bobcat mini track loader. Unique in the mini track loader industry, the time-tested and popular Bob-Tach attachment mounting system will still be available for the MT85, if customers prefer. One of the benefits of the Bob-Tach system is the ability to swap attachments from the MT85 to other approved carriers such as the Bobcat S70 skid-steer loader. There are more than 20 approved Bobcat attachments for use with mini track loaders with the Bob-Tach attachment mounting system. BUILT FOR CONFINED JOBSITES The Bobcat MT85 mini track loader can turn within its tracks, with minimal turf damage, to complete projects where larger machines can’t fit. Owners can choose between two widths (36 inches (914 mm)) with narrow tracks or (44 inches (1118 mm)) with wide tracks—to best match their application. Its compact size, which is ideal for traveling through fence gates, backyard projects or other tight areas, makes the MT85 a smart choice to replace tasks previously done with manual labour and hand tools.

While they appear to be storage facilities or mini water towers similar to those seen in small communities, Metrolinx Surface and Service Manager Chris Stewart reveals them to be more complex equipment pieces of the LRT’s development. “Yes, those towers are the Pacchiosi Jet Grouting units that we’re using now,” he says. “Actually, we’re pretty much done with them on Eglinton west of Yonge. But you’ll still see them all along the eastof-Yonge Eglinton Avenue direction in various locations.” Along with several large tunnel-boring units, the Pacchiosi Jet Grouting units are some of the most unique and key equipment pieces of the LRT project’s completion. They’ve been necessary for the proper tunneling process of the LRT, allowing for stabilizing the tunnels themselves. Developed and headquartered in the Sissa region of Parma Province, Italy, the Pacchiosi is a premium machine that utilizes jet grouting—soil consolidation and waterproofing soilfilled areas through a drilling mechanism—which is essential for the waterproofing the LRT’s underground tunnel. Their jet grout system, or ‘spa’, injects cement at high velocities against the soil of a tunnel wall, allowing for internal construction of rail and electrical work to take A Pacchiosi generator. Several of these are used in conjuction with the towers (photo to the left) along Eglinton Avenue for building the Eglinton LRT tunnel. A Pacchiosi Jet Grouting unit. Several of these towers decorate Eglingon Avenue. Their jet grout system, or ‘spa’, injects cement at high velocities against the soil of a tunnel wall. place thereafter. In the past, Pacchiosi’s jet grout systems have been used in underground construction projects in places as varied as France, Spain, Japan, and the US. “A Pacchiosi unit has been erected pretty much between each tunnel portion of the LRT, at the site of where each new station will stand,” Stewart explains. “The jet grouting process is necessary for us to solidify the tunnel and once we’re done boring it out. We can grout in new cement blocks with it and have a full formed tunnel that’s reinforced with concrete once we’re done with it.” Despite it large size and use of towers and large generator units, Stewart goes on to note FOR SALE 2008 Komatsu D85EX, 2950 hrs., straight blade, 3 ripper $325,000. o.b.o. 2013 Komatsu PC210LC, 504 hrs., Q/C, 2 bkts., power thumb $210,000. o.b.o. that an advantage of using the Pacchiosi is that it works well with a lot of the other large and small scale equipment used onsite at various points of the LRT working areas. “Overall, the whole units fit well between utilities to create structures at low levels. Unlike the large tunnel-boring machine, the Pacchiosi has a small drill bit diameter and doesn’t operate on such a large scale as other tunneling machines. You can bore out what you need and then fit the concrete with the jet grout.” Pacchioisi’s Canadian detachment is based in Saint- Jean Baptiste, Quebec, near “Using the Pacchiosi deMontreal. All of the Pacchiosi pends on the project and the machines for the LRT project ground conditions the prowere shipped in from Quebec and now that much of the tunneling work has been completed, fewer machines are needed at present. Stewarts does make note that despite the Pachiossi’s qualities, it’s not always easy to establish at each job site and many considerations have to be made before one can be erected and put into operation. “Obviously these units are bulky and take up a lot of street space, so you have to get the right permits and traffic coordination or control when setting them up and using them in the same place for as long as we have.” Stewart goes further to note that while versatile, the Pacchiosi is not for every tunnelling or underground job. ject is taking place on. While they’re great for certain soil types, they don’t work so well will heavy water-flow soils like clays and usually aren’t used for jobs in those areas.” Since they are such a big component of the LRT project as a whole, operators of the Pacchiosi are especially trained in each unit’s safe handling and operation. “The operators we’re using are from Europe,” says Stewart. “And have had training both in Italy from Pacchiois headquarters and through the workers’ union here too. You really need the right people to work with this sort of heavy duty piece of equipment. One that’s got a specific purpose for a specific job like ours.” AVALANCHE SNOWPLOWS SMART DESIGN.

This new generation product incorporates the latest cutting-tooth technologies and power drive systems, while maintaining the rugged reliability expected of Loftness equipment. The Carbide Cutter G3 is available with 1.30-, 1.55-, and 1.80-metre (51-, 61-, and 71-inch) cutting widths. All models are offered with a variety of carbide-tipped and heat-treated steel teeth to match a variety of job applications. The precisely engineered spiral tooth pattern on the rotor ensures continuous tooth contact with the material being cut. For good cutting performance, the Carbide Cutter G3 features a two-stage cutting chamber with staggered counter teeth and a shear bar. This combination of features results in small particle sizes, while elim- inating the jamming and wrapping issues associated with competitive products. An optional primary-stage shear bar is also available for ultra-fine mulching. The mulching heads operate at 1,700 to 2,150 rpm, and feature a four-groove banded belt drive with spring-loaded tensioner. They come standard with a fixed-displacement, piston-style motor that delivers hydraulic power at 97% efficiency, which is much higher than traditional geartype motors offer, claims the manufacturer. The fixed-displacement motor can be upg raded to the innovative V-Drive system that includes a variable-displacement motor with load-sensing technology. Under light loads, the V-Drive system operates at maximum rpm, and as the load increases, it automatically lowers the rotor rpm to maximize torque. The Carbide Cutter G3 is also designed for durability. For instance, high-strength Terex’s Smallest Compact Track Loader Ideal for Landscape Hardox steel is used in areas exposed to high wear. Furthermore, the Carbide Cutter G3 is equipped with a custom hydraulic control valve that protects the unit from pressure spikes, and it also stops the rotor quickly on shut-down without damaging the components. Other standard features include an on-board pressure gauge, steel deflector chains, and adjustable skid shoes. Tooth options include standard carbide teeth, planer carbide teeth and Quadco planer blades. The Loftness Carbide Cutter G3 mulching head offers full rotation due to a specially designed hose routing. This feature also allows the unit to easily position trees. The push bar can be used to push falling brush and trees away from the power unit, and the claw hooks can pull material into position for proper feeding. Bobcat of Durham East “...reliable, very versatile and great for servicing.” St. Marys Cement, established in 1912, is one of the oldest family run cement companies in North America. Since 2001, it has been the cornerstone of North American operations for Votorantim Cimentos, a Brazilian company and one of the largest cement producers in the world. You can’t help be in awe when touring the Bowmanville branch. The site sits on 800 acres of land and the limestone quarry is >240 feet deep. The main stack tower is 344 feet tall. 8,000-12,000 tons of rock is crushed daily, and 4,500 tons of cement is made per day. Since 1968 The Bowmanville Plant has been servicing customers by truck, train and boat. “Just last month we shipped over 100,000 tons of Cement to our Customers,” states Kelly Short, Assistant Production Manager. “We can currently triple the depth of the quarry. We have 87 years of reserves left here on the site and we also intend to mine under the lake over the next 10 years, pending approvals”, states Kelly and Jason. What Bobcat® machines do you have? “Our newest Bobcat machine is the S450 Skid Steer but we also own a MT52 Mini Track Loader, E32 Excavators, and several breakers and buckets and have previously owned a variety of Bobcat Skid Steers - S751, S553, S100 plus older models.” states Kelly The Terex R070T radial lift path compact track loader. The smallest compact track loader in the Terex lineup, with a 1.22-metre (48-inch) profile, the R070T radial lift path compact track loader is the right tool for productive work in tight situations where access is limited. Featuring a three-cylinder Perkins diesel engine, the 25.3-kW (33.7-hp) R070T loader is designed to be a heavy-duty machine within a compact, manoeuvrable package. Ideal for landscaping, rental, and small construction projects, the R070T compact track loader has 64.39 ft-lb of peak torque, a tipping load of 900-kilogram (2,000 pound)—with a 450-kilograms (1,000-pound) operating capacity at 50% tipping load capacity—and a lift height of 2.57 metres (101 inches). Distributing the machine’s 3,600-lb operating weight down to 3.0 psi ground pressure, the R070T loader easily works on soft or sensitive surfaces with minimal damage or impact. This model comes standard with 280-mm (11-inch) wide general purpose tracks outfitted on the patented Terex Posi-Track undercarriage technolog y and suspension. All Terex compact track loaders, including the R070T model, utilize a proprietary all-rubber track, rather than a rigid track technology with steel embedded tracks. This enables Terex compact track loaders to produce greater efficiencies in operation and speed because of their lighter weight. This set-up gives the R070T loader more traction, higher flotation, and better operating comfort so operators can make full use of the machine’s higher travel speeds, up to 6.5 mph. Terex also offers a special turf track for the R070T loader for working over fragile or improved surfaces. Why Bobcat? “Bobcat machines have proven their value over the years and that’s why we keep purchasing them. They are reliable, very versatile and great for servicing. We have one of the toughest environment a skid steer will ever see - cement dust plus water = hardened cement. We use the Bobcat machines for clean up around the plant, spills, picking up materials, inside Kiln for brick jobs, breaking concrete and also as a small versatile forklift.” St Marys has been dealing with Bobcat of Durham East since they opened. Dave Guttin, Sales & Rentals for Bobcat of Durham East Ltd., has provided us with great sales service and great value. We’ve never had any major problems with our new equipment and they always provides a quick turn around. They carry a lot of the machines spare parts in stock so there’s no time wasted,” states Jason Archer, Quarry Supervisor. Thank you Kelly and Jason.

Today, he is reshaping the pet industry and setting a new standard for his customers. It is no coincidence that when he decided to operate his own, in-house fleet, Mack trucks were his equipment of choice for reliability, reputation and cost efficiency. There was another benefit: The bright yellow Mack Pinnacles are so eye-catching that they have become an integral part of Hollywood Feed’s branding campaign. McGhee is no stranger to success. He rose rapidly through the managerial ranks of both AutoZone and Office Depot, and when his keen eye spotted three failing feed stores, he knew he could make them profitable. In 2006, he purchased the stores and revamped them from the ground up. Today, Hollywood Feed focuses exclusively on premium products for dogs and cats, with more than 40 stores in five states—Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas. McGhee expects to build 20 new stores in 2016. Revenue is increasing by 40-50% per year. “If we can’t do something really well, we don’t do it at all,” he says. Keeping costs down was a top priorit y, but when McGhee ran the numbers, he realized he could get better service at a lower price if he operated his own fleet rather than relying on a carrier. There was an added advantage, too: The stores are busy in the daytime and parking is scarce, but if he hired his own drivers, he could schedule overnight, unattended deliveries. He started out with another OEM, but in 2013, he called Tri-State Truck Center in Memphis. The company was growing fast, and he needed equipment better suited for his operation. After exhaustive research, he decided Mack Trucks could take Hollywood Feed’s distribution to the next level. He currently holds full-service leases on five Mack Pinnacle models and plans to rotate them out every four to five years. “We chose Mack because on how to grow his company, coming up with new ways to delight pet owners and improve the lives of their animals. Each tractor and trailer is custom retrofitted to meet the company’s unique needs, says Eric Fite, Vice President of Tri-State Truck Center in Memphis. of the reputation and reliability,” McGhee says. “We drove other brands, but we weren’t happy with the drivability and cab accessories. Our drivers love the Macks.” Each tractor and trailer is custom retrofitted to meet t he c ompa n y ’s u n ique needs, says Eric Fite, Vice President of Tri-State Truck Center in Memphis. The biggest challenge was spec’ing the right wheelbase size and trailer size to maximize payload and man- oeuvrability. They decided to go with an extra-short, extra-wide trailer 42 feet (12.8 metres) long with an interior of 100 inches (2.5 metres) wide. Because every minute counts toward the bottom line, McGhee had 250-300 gallon fuel tanks installed, minimizing the frequency of fuel stops. And he had one more request: He wanted his drivers to be as happy and comfortable as possible. The cabs are equipped with microwaves, the anSwer iS ‘yeS’. now, which part do you need?

His drivers are proud to drive the flashy, bright yellow trucks with the canine theme. A massive red paw is emblazoned on the hood, right behind the Mack Bulldog. The trailers are built by Great Dane and feature the Great Dane logo on the rear door, along with a large dog silhouette and the word, “Woof!” The sides feature more silhouettes of dogs. The positive brand image extends to customers who say they like the trucks so much that they take photographs when they see them on the road, tagging Hollywood Feed on social media. “The trucks are a nice adjunct to the business,” McGhee says. “They get a lot of attention. Our trucks are the nicest on the road.” As the company grows, McGhee anticipates adding more Macks to the fleet and appreciates his relationship with his dealer. “Mack handles the whole fleet maintenance equation,” he says. “We don’t even think about it. We don’t have any mechanics on staff. We entrust Mack with the service and care.” McGhee focuses instead A DIFFERENT BREED The company’s tagline is “A different breed,” and McGhee personally oversees every product they sell and is constantly seeking fun and innovative solutions for his growing clientele. They have had great success with the Mississippi Made line of dog beds, and they are now making collars and leashes from the leftover bedding material. McGhee’s main focus is improving the lives and well-being of companion animals, and employee education is a critical component. Each of the company’s 250 employees starts out with 80 hours of training in animal nutrition and health, taught by veterinarians, researchers and nutritionists, and they receive an additional 40 hours of instruction per year. And they are not just spouting textbook knowledge either. Each employee receives up to 225 kilograms (500 pounds) of food per month, with Hollywood Feed providing food for around 1,200 employee-owned dogs. Their pets are allowed free rein in the store, with sometimes as many as 20 dogs roaming the building, acting as four-footed ambassadors. “We believe in our product,” McGhee says. “We buy it, we feed it, we support it. We have a passion for pets.” That passion extends to the community, with Hollywood Feed donating a significant amount of time and money to charitable causes, from animal adoptions to providing free doghouses and straw for dogs left outside in the cold Tennessee winters. Outsiders might expect such largesse to be costly— and it is—but through hard work and business savvy, Holly wood Feed should continue to grow for decades to come. “God blessed me with the ability to absorb and understand where opportunities may lie,” McGhee says. “We think about the business at a level I don’t think many companies do. We focus always on quality. We want to be the best.” Why let heat, dust and poor air conditions ruin a perfectly good production schedule?

Growth in mining equipment sales during the 20092014 period was erratic, a result of the volatility of commodity prices and the resultant effect on mining machinery investment. Increases in manufacturing output, especially in the developing world, and renewed strength in construction activity in much of the developed world will support mining equipment sales gains. These and other trends are presented in World Mining Equipment, a new study from The Freedonia Group, Inc., a Cleveland-based industry research firm. The developing world will continue to post robust gains in mining equipment demand, as overall lack of mechanization rates in these countries drive purchases. In addition, many developing countries have significant metals and coal mining industries that require substantial levels of capital investment. These include nations in the Asia/Pacific region and Central and South America, which have large metals mining industries, and Global demand for mining equipment is forecast to expand 7% annually to nearly $105 billion in 2019. in Eastern Europe and the Africa/Mideast region, which are sizable coal producing areas. China is by far the largest national market for mining equipment, with sales more than doubling between 2009 and 2014. Rapid increases in manufacturing output and construction activity in the country, as well as government efforts to boost the mechanization of China’s mines, led to torrid growth historically, and advances will remain above average through 2019. According to analyst Kyle Peters, “Although it will remain a much smaller market than China, India will record the fastest gains of any country, as there is still a significant need for mine mechanization. Mining output growth in India will be among the strongest in the world.” The developed countries of North America and Western Europe will experience more modest growth through 2019, although mining equipment demand in Western Europe will accelerate from the 20092014 period as the region’s construction industry rebounds from a decade-long decline. The majority of mining activity in these nations is of aggregates, which require less capital spending per metric ton of output than metals or coal. In addition, coal consumption and associated mining output are falling in many industrialized countries, as regulatory mandates lead to greater use of other energy sources.

We wish you all great success, prosperity and a very happy new year in 2016! @EQJNEWS B21 DECEMBER 21, 2015 | Ontario Contractor Puts 30,000 Hours on His Favourite Attachment Chute Construction, based out of Brantford, Ontario, has put approximately 30,000 hours on the company’s original RT60 Rototilt tiltrotator. “That Rototilt never comes off the machine; it stays on 365 days a year,” explains company co-owner, Tyler Chute. “Even if we work with concrete or in frost, we still use it. Depending on the application, we just change the bucket. With the Rototilt, we eliminate the need for another machine.” Chute Construction is a fully equipped contractor of large and sma l l residential, commercial, and industrial projects. They provide rough grading, final grading, fill removal, complete site preparation, and designing services, as well as landscaping, drainage and demolition services. The company purchased the RT60, as well as another Rototilt, back in 2002. “At the time, we had been looking for years for a way to perform our grade jobs better,” says Chute. “We had considered a ditching bucket, but decided to pay the higher price and purchase a Rototilt.” According to Chute, it did not take long for the company to see big benefits to their investment. “Immediately, we decreased our ground crew from two to one. Also, moving objects fastened by chain to the excavator is easier and now we can get a solid grip of armour stones when we use our grapple. Placing stones is also now a breeze.” Excavating and grading are the company’s main line of work. “When digging a basement, we can get the mach i ne l i ned up w it h the wall, and don’t have to manoeuvre the excavator to the perfect spot ,” explains Chute. “Also, on the grading end, with the Rototilt, we can do swails or grade in a front or back yard. We can’t fit a dozer in between houses, but we can fit an excavator. We used to put 2,000 hours on a dozer each year, but now we don’t even put 400 hours a year. We no longer have a full-time dozer operator, and we don’t have to float another piece of machinery to a jobsite. By using an excavator equipped with a Rototilt instead of a dozer, we save about $60,000 each year. And, equipment maintenance and purchases costs are down, because our dozer lasts longer. We used to change out the dozer every 4 to 5 years, but since purchasing the Rototilts, our dozer has lasted 15 years. The Rototilt also comes in handy when working to contain demolit ion materials following a fire. In fact, Chute Construction is often in called in to assist the Fire Marshall’s office. “ We’l l get t he c a l l a nd they’ll want a machine on site right then,” says Tim Chute, who co-manages the company with Tyler. The Rototilt eliminates the need for a swinging crane and allows sensitive areas to be contained more easily. Continued - B22 Chute Construction has put 30,000 hours on its Rototilt.

Del was an innovator who brought specialty equipment to the job and the know-how to use it. In the early 1970’s, Del’s son Mike took over the operation and, today, the company continues the legacy with his sons, Tim and Tyler Chute, who comanage the operation. @EQJNEWS B23 DECEMBER 21, 2015 | Equipment Sales & Service to Support Soilmec North America’s Customers in Eastern Canada To support Eastern Canada foundation and underground construction customers, Equipment Sales & Service Limited (ESS), is partnering with Champion Equipment Sales, LLC to offer sales and service for Soilmec drilling rigs and cranes, and Leffer, TEI, and Champion Equipment Company product lines in the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador.
