• 9 times out of 10 - your job will have a restriction of some sort such as width or height.
• You need to check what restrictions you may have carefully – remember if the ground is not level where you need to get a machine through a gap, it will tilt to one side.
• You need to check for underground obstructions before you dig anywhere.
• It is usually best to try to get the biggest machine in that you can.
• All our excavators except the 13 tonne have boom offset which will fold the boom up to 90 degrees left and 60 to the right - this reduces the slew radius in diameter. It also allows parallel digging with fences and walls.
• Look for our zero tail swing machines when working next to walls - no part of the machines tail can swing into anything.
• All machines are piped for hammer and accessories - do you have a floor to break out or a wall to knock down?
