Case Unveils Precision Grader Blade for Large-Frame CTLs

Case Construction Equipment’s pre- The new attachment is compatible cision grader blade is a powerful new with the same 2D and 3D machine attachment for large-frame compact control technologies deployed on track loaders that delivers the grading performance of a motor grader in a more compact and agile footprint. The Case precision grader blade is full-sized motor graders, allowing contractors to transform their CTL into a powerful and compact precision grading solution. compatible with 2D and 3D machine control solutions — including Case SiteControl grader solutions powered by Leica Geosystems — to deliver improved productivity, quality and efficiency in fine grading applications, according to the manufacturer.

“This is built for those applications where contractors have always wanted the power and precision of a motor grader, but were unable to justify it based on size, access or cost,” said Jerry Hutkowski, product manager, Case Construction Equipment.

“It takes the large-frame CTL that many contractors already own and turns it into a powerful precision grading solution capable of working on sites where a larger machine isn’t practical or can’t gain access.”

The Case precision grader blade is compatible with the use of laser receivers (single or dual), sonic tracers (single or dual), GNSS/GPS (single or dual) and total stations — and the attachment itself is “plug and play” with the auxiliary hydraulics and 14-pin electrical connection of a large-frame CTL.

It features a 108-in. moldboard capable of jointly changing elevation and slope through dual lift cylinders, as well as achieving 60 degrees of combined blade rotation and 26 in. of combined blade side shift.

Pettibone Cary-Lift 204i Forklift Can Equip Scrap Baler

The Pettibone Cary-Lift 204i rough terrain forklift can be equipped with a scrap baler attachment for handling debris and materials in demolition and recycling applications.

The machine is purpose-built to deliver numerous safety and performance benefits, according to the manufacturer.

The Cary-Lift 204i features an overhead lift arm design, giving the operator full front visibility when lifting or transporting loads — a sharp contrast to the lift arms on wheel loaders, which are located directly in front of the vehicle. Additionally, CaryLift forks are capable of tilting down 90 degrees for specialized lifting tasks.

The 204i is powered by a 200-hp Cummins QSB6.7 Tier IV diesel engine with DOC and SCR aftertreatment. The unit includes an engine-driven fan, cooling package and engine block heater as standard equipment.

The machine provides a maximum load capacity of 20,000 lbs. and max lift height of 16 ft. Offering 4-wheel drive with 2-wheel, 4-wheel and crab hydraulic power steering modes — and with the wheelbase limited to just 12 ft. — the 204i can achieve a turning radius of 21 ft. 6 in.

Unlike forward-reaching articulated loaders, the Cary-Lift’s heavy-duty, solid steel frame design allows it to take full loads into sharp turns without sacrificing load capacity or stability, according to the manufacturer.

Hydraulic frame sway control and side shift capabilities further stabilize loads by leveling the lifting frame when driving on uneven ground. The sway cylinder moves 7 degrees both right and left of center. Dual joysticks provide intuitive controls to efficiently shift gears and control the hydraulics.

An optional feature for the Cary-Lift 204i is X-Command, a new Pettibone telematics program that offers real-time access to machine data, thereby saving time, money and hassle for equipment owners and maintenance technicians.

Mazio SKID Paver Provides Jobsite Agility, Versatility

The Mazio skid-steer-mounted SKID Paver is ideal for asphalt patching and paving of roads, pathways, bicycle tracks, parking lots, driveways and utility trenches.

With a 1.5 cu. yd. (1.4 cu m) hopper capacity, a paving width of up to 6.2 ft. (1.9 m) and a paving speed of 82 ft. (25 m) per minute, the SKID Paver can be installed on any type of ISO 24410 skid steer loader.

The unit works with hot or cold mix asphalt, paving asphalt thicknesses of 2 in. (5 cm) up to 10 in. (25 cm). Liquid propane gas (LPG) heaters keep material heated to 284 F (140 C). The wide 108.25 in. (275 cm) hopper receives asphalt material directly from the haul truck, allowing for front or side loading, and automatically feeds to a 7.9 in. (20 cm) auger. The machine’s retractable hydraulic screed allows the operator to work around obstacles.

The SKID Paver can be operated forward and backward from cab or via a wireless remote control, which provides the operator a complete view of the work in front of the paver. All functions operate hydraulically, including auger; screed lifting, lowering, and telescopic positioning; and hopper opening/closing.

The 1,567 lb. (711 kg) SKID Paver unit features an adapter plate, control panel box and remote control, feeding auger, self-leveling system, screed heat system and an optional vibrator. The hopper opens into two widths for versatility, and fully folds for easy transport.

The machine also will spread sand, gravel and stones, and concrete in flat layers, adding to its jobsite versatility, according to the manufacturer.
