Duties Of An Excavator

Files under Excavator | Leave a Comment

When a company seeks to purchase a digging machine, they usually have a job in mind. A company will know the type of terrain they will be working on. This terrain can vary from forested land to muddy pits. Any excavator needs to be articulate. In this instance, the meaning of articulate is the joining of parts to create a mobile machine. An excavator, whether it is a mini excavator or larger version, needs to be able to move around the terrain with ease. This is also where the size of the machine may come to be important. The smaller the excavator, the easier it will be to move through smaller areas such as forests. The mini excavators weigh less; therefore, they will be able to traverse on softer ground. Mobility of the parts of the machine is also an important factor. Most diggers have the ability to move in 360 degrees. This means you can set the machine on stable land and turn to the work you need to accomplish. This is especially helpful when the terrain is narrow. An excavator’s undercarriage is also an important consideration. The undercarriage is protected from the terrain. The height of the machine from the ground will also determine what type of path it can move around on.

You might assume the larger the vehicle, the less fuel efficiency you will have. Fuel efficiency of the excavators does in part depend on size. The size of the fuel tank and the type of fuel the excavator uses will determine the fuel usage. Most excavators work off of diesel. Diesel fuel burns less quickly than gas. The size of the machine will determine the amount of fuel needed to use. The larger excavators have a comparable fuel tank. Distributors of excavators strive to produce fuel-efficient machines, especially the larger machines. The engine of the excavator also determines the fuel efficiency. A smaller engine typically requires less fuel to work it. The emissions of an engine is important to conserving fuel; there are many engines being built to have less emissions and therefore less fuel usage. The engine specifications will tell you the fuel efficiency of the machine. Excavators can move at a rate of 3-5 mph. This speed affects the rate at which it burns fuel. The size of the fuel tanks on most excavators ranges from 18-36 gallons depending on the excavator. The larger excavators have a larger fuel tank. The mini excavators usually have the 18-gallon fuel tanks.

Excavators for sale are expensive. When weighing the cost effectiveness of a machine, you will want to evaluate the features of the machine. This ties the articulation, versatility, fuel efficiency, mobility, maintenance, power, and longevity of the machine into the most important aspect, that of buying the excavator. Size is also a factor. The large machines will be more expensive than their smaller counterparts. A machine that has the versatility to perform many jobs is going to be more cost effective than one with limited operations. Maintenance of any heavy construction equipment can be expensive; we know this from owning cars. The replacement parts of a machine will affect the cost of fixing it; thus, having a machine that is cost effective and durable is significant. Other factors of cost will be reflected in the type of attachments. If you purchase several attachments with the machine such as two buckets and a grader, you will increase the cost of your excavator; however, you will be able to use the machine for more operations. The quality or longevity of the excavator is significant to the cost. A purchaser should look at all the options they have for the size of excavator needed before settling on any one digger.

When deciding on the excavator that will fit your needs, you will want to look at the maintenance of the machine. There are many parts that make up an excavator. The crane, hydraulics, engine, buckets, tracks, and cab are all a part of the machine. Some of these parts are easily replaced, while others require a mechanic. The ease of working on the excavator for the operator is important. There are aspects of the machine an operator can fix or replace, rather than having a mechanic do the work. This can be cost effective, as well. Maintenance of the excavator is a primary concern when looking at other features such as longevity. While all machines will need maintenance over time, you want a machine that will have minimal maintenance needs. The maintenance needs to be easy for the owner or operator of the machine to be effective over the long term. The hydraulics and engine are the most complicated parts on the excavator. They are also the most important aspects. The hydraulics have hoses that can wear over time; you should expect to replace these during the lifetime of the machine.

The engine capabilities are significant in determining which excavator will be proficient for your needs. The performance of the excavator has two parts. The engine strength and the actual performance of its parts will determine the overall performance. The engine on a medium-sized excavator is usually around 52 @ 2100. This is the net power @ rated rpm. The engine usually runs on 4 cylinders. A mini excavator has a net power of 39.9 @ 2500. The larger versions have a net power of 463 @ 1800. So again, size of the excavator will determine the performance you will attain. The performance of parts also differs with size. The mini excavator for sale has a standard arm length of 4′ 6.3″, a max digging depth of 18′ 8″, and boom swing of 80 degrees. Obviously, the larger the excavator, the more reach you will have. Determining the size of excavator for your projects will be determined by the projects themselves. The excavator must have the power to do the job.

Your operator will appreciate you if you take comfort and safety into account when purchasing the excavator. Comfort depends on the type of seat, the cab, and the ergonomics of the controls. Most seats on an excavator have springs, so the rider can move over the terrain without feeling the effects. The seats are also cushioned. The cab on larger excavators is often enclosed with windows. This keeps the operator from harsh weather. The windows will also help when weather gets warmer, so you can have a breeze come through. Most excavators also have heaters for the colder weather seasons. Mini excavators normally have a wire front rather than windows. The controls are positioned so an operator can operate the machine with comfort. Safety of the operator is very important. The machine has to weigh comparable to the amount it may lift. The base of the excavator is wider than the cab. Most excavator models now have seat belts for safety in case you need to go on to the road to get to a site. The materials the excavators are built with also lend to safety. The material is usually steel and tested for the amount of weight it can lift as well as the digging strength. These guidelines or specifications add to the safety. Safety will also depend on the size of the machine relative to the work you will need it for.

Tips On Purchasing The Right Forklift Equipment

Purchasing trucks and heavy construction equipment may be a difficult task unless you are a well informed buyer. It’s very easy to over spend and purchase a forklift that has characteristics you will never get to use. Today’s top 5 forklift manufacturers are the Toyota Industries Corporation, KION Group, Jungheinrich, NACCO Industries, Inc. and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, so chances are you will be in the market for one of their products. Here is a look at forklift prices, characteristics and design types that should help you get a clear idea of what kind of forklift will work best for you:

There are several types of industrial machines and forklifts, generally categorized under the following machine types:

• Hand pallet truck
• Walkie low lift truck
• Rider low lift truck
• Towing tractor
• Walkie stacker
• Rider stacker
• Reach truck
• Electric counterbalanced truck
• IC counterbalanced truck
• Telescopic handler
• Slip Sheet machine
• Walkie Order Picking truck
• Rider Order Picking truck
• Very narrow aisle truck

Once you have decide on the general category into which your desired forklift is found, make sure to shop around before making a purchase. Try to visit a minimum of two or three retailers to be able to get good price comparisons. Also make sure to ask what the full cost will be for the forklift. For example, an internal combustion forklift may start at a price of around $15,000, but depending on what accessories you choose, warranty levels and manufacturer’s brand you can end up paying a lot more than that. Electric forklifts are usually sold in the $20,000 price range, however, you will need to spend a few thousand dollars extra on batteries and battery chargers. If you need a heavy duty forklift - over 35,000 lb – you can expect prices to be in the $100,000 range.

New forklifts too expensive? Try a used one :
A used 5,000 pound forklifts can be bought for about $10,000, more if it is in excellent condition. Of course, the risks of purchasing used forklift equipments are also proportionally higher. Make sure to determine your hourly operating costs before purchasing a used forklift. If you plan to use the forklift on a daily basis for 4-6 hours, you may loose more money due to maintenance and breakdowns than if you bought it new. Other elements you should look at when determining the hourly operating costs include the extra supplies and the fuel cost, plus the wage of the forklift operator. Leasing forklifts is yet another option, many investors preferring to lease equipment because they get full warranty for the duration of the lease.

Track Loaders Are Better Than Old Style Skid Steer Loaders

Files under Loader | Leave a Comment

The first skid steer loader for sale was placed on the market in 1958. It was essentially a three-wheeled, self-propelled, independent drive train, compact front loader. Major improvements over front loaders of the day included compact size, a virtually nonexistent turning radius, and an amazingly large workload for its size and price. It was an important step forward.

Today, skid steers are commonly used in many places for various reasons. They are versatile heavy construction equipments, thanks to their small size, great power, and many specialized attachments. One industry that began to rely heavily on ski steers was the landscaping industry. In landscaping, it is often necessary to perform heavy work in a small, somewhat enclosed, sensitive area. There are often flowerbeds, small trees, and many man-made objects placed in close proximity that the landscaper must be able to function around. A skid steer, thanks to its independent drive trains for left and right sides, is able to turn around in its own tracks and therefore operate in these tight spaces. In comparison to its size, a skid steer is usually very strong, thanks to hydraulics and a well-designed chassis. The combination of compact size, maneuverability, and power make it an excellent tool for the landscaper. However, there remained a few problems with skid steers that track loaders sought to answer.

Skid steers have a few problems. One of these problems is the inability to operate in wet, muddy, slippery conditions. With four tires, a large amount of weight is placed in four specific points on the surface the skid steer is working on. On asphalt or other firm surface, this is often not a problem. But if faced with muddy or soft conditions, a skid steer is often unable to manage, leaving large ruts or even getting stuck. In the landscaping business, both of these are often unacceptable due to the ugly look of ruts. With only four wheels, skid steers also assume that those four small areas will provide enough traction not only to move the machine, but also whatever it is pushing, pulling, or carrying.

Track loaders are essentially a skid steer on tracks instead of wheels. This changes a number of things. By increasing the surface area of the contacting surface, the weight of the machine is spread out over a larger area, allowing it to `float’ more readily on soft surface conditions. The increased surface area also increases traction in slippery conditions. This means that a track loader, when compared to a skid steer, is able to function in more conditions, while leaving less visible tracks. The track loader, of course, retains all the necessary functions of a skid steer.

Purchasing a compact track loader is considerably expensive, especially when compared to a skid steer with similar specifications. Most companies have fixed the prices of compact track loaders at approximately 30-45% higher than similar skid steers, and replacement tracks typically cost about five times as much as replacement tires for a skid steer. So is it really worth the extra cost? This, again, depends on your individual circumstances.

Many contractors have determined that it is worth the cost. The additional work days and increased productivity are enough, some say, that a compact track loader pays for the extra cost within the first year. Tracks are incredibly expensive to replace, but when cared for properly are incredibly durable. Tires on a skid steer must be replaced about every season when used hard, but when a compact track loader’s tracks are cared for properly, they can last up to three seasons of hard use. Tires often go flat if punctured or worn, causing extra down time to replace or repair a tire. A compact track loader will never have flat tires, and this eliminates such down time. In the end, this question can only be answered by you based on your individual situation and your needs.

Once you have decided to purchase a compact track loader, and have determined which loader you’re interested in, now you have to find the best way to buy your machine. Many contractors like to purchase directly from the manufacturer. They will often preorder their compact track loader and even have special add-ons included in the build. Purchasing from the manufacturer is sometimes the cheapest way to buy new. Other contractors like to purchase from a certified equipment dealer. While this usually costs more than purchasing from the manufacturer, it is often easier to get your compact track loader serviced at the dealership that you bought it from than by the manufacturer.

One other option is to buy a used compact track loader. This, of course, will cut down drastically on the price. There are many ways to buy a used compact track loader, and if you plan to purchase a used machine, internet forums may be the easiest way to find what you’re looking for at the right price for you.

Finally, some manufacturers offer leases. The major benefit of this is that it cuts down the initial purchase price, and allows you to upgrade in a few years relatively cheaply. The overall cost will eventually be greater, of course, as with any lease.

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that every compact track loader is like the others. While they are all designed on the same principle, there are many differences that will matter to your operation. Once you buy a compact track loader, be sure to read all instructions and manuals, and if possible ask a dealer to assist you in learning to operate your machine. Always start out slow. Not only are you inexperienced in the operation of that particular machine, but the compact track loader will need time to be broken in, even if you are an experienced operator.

Rent Construction Equipments And Use It Safely

Those who are do-it-yourselfers know that the best and least expensive way to accomplish a task is to pull out the work gloves and get after it. But does that include projects that require construction equipment? There are several things to ask yourself before you decide whether to rent (or buy) construction equipments like excavators, forklifts, wheel loaders, skid steer loaders etc or to call in the pros.

Two of the most important things to consider are cost and size of the project. Have you always wanted a pond? There is really nothing stopping you from building one if you have enough land and there are no zoning laws restricting it. That is going to be a pretty big project and you might be surprised how much earth has to be moved to create even a small pond for watering livestock.

Think you are not qualified to operate construction equipment? You might be right. If you have never operated a bulldozer, you are going to quickly find out that those professionals only make it look easy. There is a lot to learn before you can successfully move dirt the way it is supposed to be moved. But even if you know how to run a bulldozer or other new or used heavy construction equipment, you may not have enough knowledge to put the equipment to proper use.

If you know anything about ponds, you know that just digging a hole is not going to get you a pond that holds water. If you know how to go about the sealing process, whether you should have a drain and how to choose the best place for your pond, you may very well be in a position to rent a bulldozer and build your own pond.

Think you are going to need a series of ponds? In that case, you need to carefully consider how long it will take you to do the digging and get a good estimate for the cost of renting the construction equipment you need for the entire project. Do not overlook transportation fees, especially if you plan to only use the equipment for a few days, send it back and then rent again. Do not overlook your time. If you are taking time off work, figure that into the cost of renting.

Compare that to the cost of hiring someone who owns the construction equipment to get the project completed. If it is a big project, consider purchasing your own construction equipment. After you are done, you can always sell the equipment to regain at least part of your investment.

Whether you are talking about a new or used bulldozer equipment for a major earth-moving project, a Ditch Witch to lay cable or water lines, or a jackhammer to bust up a concrete pad, you may be surprised at how affordable renting construction equipment can be.

Inspection Is A Must While Selecting Used Excavators

Files under Excavator | Leave a Comment

A second hand or used excavator cost less than a new one. The difference can be at least 25% to 50% of the new ones. The amount depends a lot on the existing condition of the excavator and one has to be careful because even though a used one is cheaper but it could cost a lot in term of repairs. Thus the total cost involved may make it not worth buying. Hence besides only knowing what’s on paper e.g. manufactured date, date of last service, a proper physical inspection of the machine is required before signing the purchase paper.

Stage 1 - Visual Physical Inspection

1) Engine :When inspecting the engine, look around the engine compartment for sign of soot. Soot is from smoke and any sign will indicate that the engine would need overhauling. Also look around for any signs of engine oil leakages or neglect. Then look at the battery for signs of corrosion. Also inspect the air cleaner system to ensure they are working as a small amount of dust/dirt can cause engine damage. Next look at the cooling system, the cooling fans belt are tight, radiator clean as a damaged cooling and air system can cause engine overheat.

2) Cab, Stick, Boom and Bucket :A well looked after excavator will have the following signs, a cab interior reasonable in good condition and the body does not suffer from major damages. Thus look out for out of place welding and patching up which would indicate major repairs done earlier. Minor tear and scratch are ok and common in used stuffs anyway. Next inspect the bucket, make sure nothing is bent underneath. If there are it means this heavy construction equipment had been used to driving pilings, hammering rocks beside excavation. Hence due to these, a possibility that the excavator had been subjected to tasks beyond its capacity.

Next check the pivot points and look out for any slackness between pins and bushing. Any slackness may indicate the need for replacement after buying it. The most crucial pivot point is the one between the boom and the body. Check that, as it can be very expensive to replace if required. And on the boom itself, inspect the boom with a straight edge and dipper stick to make sure they are not bend or twisted.

3) Track & Undercarriage :When inspecting the tracks, look at how much wear there is and if are any connection that link all the individual metal plates tracks are broken or suffered from tear. A track that is nears it’s operation life requires replacement. Thus the cost of replacement had to be factored in. Also inspect the condition of the sprockets and rollers individually as they may need replacement. At the same time, while you’re inspecting the track and undercarriage, check the oil level and cleanliness in the final drives. Look out for leaks and wear. Make sure there are no water or foreign matter inside. Finally inspect the roller metal frame for signs of crack or repair, which is normally done by welding.

Stage 2 - Performance/operation inspection

Having done the physical inspection, the next stage is operation. This is when the excavator engine starts up and after warming up, ask for a demonstration of movement of bucket, stick and boom. This is the time to look out for slackness, which normally indicates that the bushings require replacement.

This is also the best time to inspect the hydraulic cylinders and tubes. A well maintained machine would have no signs of leakage or scratch on the chrome surface of the cylinder. A leakage may indicate contaminated hydraulic system.

Also make sure that the cylinders are not bend or damaged. This is because due to the small tolerance between the chrome tube and cylinder. Any dent in the cylinder will create a lot of wear and tear to the tubes and cylinders. Not to mention introducing metal fragments into the hydraulic system.

Next check the tracks performance and that both tracks are rotating equally. A way to check this is to drive the mini excavator over a short distance to see if it runs straight. If it does, than the drive motor is working equally well. Another way is to tilt the machine with the bucket and time the turnings of the track over a certain time. Then do the same with the other track. Both should have the same amount of rotation. If not than there is something wrong with the drive motors.

Finally, check the performance of the swing system, which includes the gears and bearing. The system should be able to rotate the cab and all with little or no deflection. It should stop and start smoothly and accurately without any sloppiness or lurching. Any signs of sloppiness are a cause for concern. Perform the swing in both clockwise and counter clockwise direction.

In these days most of the independent contractors prefer to rent construction equipment instead of buying their own. Most of the contractors tend to believe that by following this practice they are already saving themselves a good amount of money.

Contractors purchasing their own brand new heavy equipment can be risky since they don’t have a sufficient amount to spend on the machine. Additionally, purchasing brand new construction equipment may also require an ample time to regain the investment.

The good thing now is that small or independent contractors no longer need to engage into a great risk just to own construction equipments. There is an another alternative that  is offered; instead of buying a brand new crane, trailer, loader, lift, scraper, Backhoe loader, or any other variety of heavy equipment—small or independent contractors may prefer buying used construction equipment on sale.

This is a good alternative as it gives small contractors a fair chance to run their own business. Buying used vehicles is a better and practical option for upcoming contractors.
There are some points to be considered while buying used heavy equipments for sale.

-Look out for minor damages on the machine. Minor damages are acceptable when buying used machine; however, keep in mind that this damages will not risk the safety of the person who will maneuver the machine.

-Test drive the machine before finally buying. To obtain a reliable inspection, the machine needs to be tried out by the buyer himself.

-Do not be deceived by a newly painted construction equipment always remember, there are some sellers who will make the best ways to cover-up the flaws of the equipment by selling with a new paint on it.

When buying used construction equipments on sale, it is better to order from an established dealer like John Deere. Unlike other sellers, their dealers can give warranties to grant the buyer an ample time to test the usability of the machine.
