WA- 600: Rock Wrangler

This beast is working in a marble quarry facility in Nova Scotia. Working closely with our dealer to create a custom set of attachments for this application we were able to provide a Rock Bucket, Rock Fork and a Hydraulic Quik Key Coupler for maximum flexibility.

Since this monster routinely handles marble slabs in the 10,000lbs range our engineers made sure that the care we put into all of our custom attachments is second-to-none.

Shown in the photo above are Aaron Clark (Craig Eastern Canada Territory Manager), Corey Meyers (Wilson Equipment Sales Rep), and Joey McNeil (McLeod Resources Operator)

42 yard WCU Goes To Work in Fort Fairfield, ME



SEE THE VIDEO HERE

Some of you will remember this blade in construction when it was featured in our January '08 newsletter. We're now happy to show you the blade in use at the Boralex woodchip generating plant in Fort Fairfield, Maine.

Craig sent sales and marketing representatives to speak with the operators of this behemoth and found out that they really like the setup. With 42 yards of carrying capacity they can stack an entire truck load of chips in only two passes. On top of that, when the blade is angled forward for dozing below grade, it rolls the chips rather than pushing them which helps loosen the fuel before being loaded into the hopper. Great visibility and a clean moldboard design complete the package.

This custom solution was the result of careful communication and cooperation between the OEM, the dealer, and Craig. Working together has made this end-user's requirements a success.
