Crews continue working on an $80 million project to enlarge and stabilize a 2-mi., 62-year-old tunnel containing a new 24-in. sewer pipeline in Laguna Beach, Calif.

Workers are enlarging the tunnel that runs from Three Arch Bay to Aliso Beach from an average diameter of 6 ft. to an average diameter of 9 ft.

The South Coast Water District Board approved the project in 2010, followed by approval of the Laguna Beach City Council in 2013.

The tunnel and pipeline are the only sewer collection system in Southern California that has a sewer line inside of a tunnel within and below a bluff. The project started in March 2017 and is expected to continue through August 2021.

The project is described as a 100-year solution to upgrade the aging tunnel and protect the environment, local economies and neighboring communities from sewer leaks or spills. Besides enlarging and stabilizing the tunnel, workers will replace the current 24-in. pipeline that was last

replaced in 1974.

The current pipeline, also 24 in. in diameter, will be encased in concrete, but preserved for redundancy and emergency use.

“This is a sanitary sewer serving beachfront homes and businesses along a two-mile stretch between Three Arch Bay and Aliso Beach in Laguna Beach,” said Robin Rockey, public information specialist for the South Coast Water District.

Enlarging the tunnel will ensure safer working conditions and greater access for future pipeline maintenance and repair. Permanent tunnel lining and steel supports will be installed where needed.

The project is described as a 100-year solution to upgrade the aging tunnel and protect the environment, local economies and neighboring communities from sewer leaks or spills.

Concrete will we sprayed onto the tunnel walls in a process called shotcrete.

The steel supports will replace rotting timber supports. Loose rock also will be removed.

The sewer line currently handles about 1 million gal. of wastewater each

day. Built in 1954, the tunnel is said to be crumbling in spots.

The South Coast Water District reports that the tunnel has experienced several collapses and rock falls in recent years. Fortunately no worker injuries or sewer spills have occurred during the tunnel’s history.

The sewer pipe carries wastewater along by gravity. That is sigsee STABILIZE page 54

Labor Shortage: It’s Not Necessarily About Pay

By Jennifer McKevitt CEG CORRESPONDENT

A recent report from the Associated General Contractors of America notes that more than 80 percent of contractors are struggling to fill hourly craft positions or those that require specialized training to perform. In an attempt to lure in talented workers, per diems and other pay structures are growing increasingly com-

petitive.

CEG spoke with Ken Simonson, AGC’s chief economist, who believes the situation will take more than adjusted per diems to resolve.

“Construction firms are definitely sensitive to wage and benefits packages,” Simonson said. “However, the problem of attracting qualified workers goes deeper than adjusted costs for meals, travel and lodging.”

The true source of worker shortages isn’t pay-related, he believes. The real issue is training.

“About a decade or more ago, schools began de-emphasizing the value of trades,” he said. “Career counselors told everyone that college was the best way to land a high-paying job.”

What the counselors didn’t foresee was the see LABOR page 50

Cooper Equipment Company Celebrates Grand Opening

C

ooper Equipment Co. held a grand opening Oct. 12, 2018, at its new location at 201 Commerce Blvd. in Georgetown, Texas. At the event, Cooper Equipment also began an early celebration for an upcoming milestone — next year will mark its 60th year in business as an equipment distributorship.

More than 125 customers, employees and vendors were on hand for the day-long celebration that included equipment specialists for each of Cooper’s lines, as well as food and entertainment.

The Cooper family hosted the event — George Cooper, president; his wife, Jerri; daughter Megan, company secretary; and son, Matt, district manager. Other leadership personnel on hand were Fred Jose, vice president, and Rick Chapman, Georgetown branch manager.

The 15,500 sq.- ft. facility will serve Cooper’s expanding customer base in the greater Austin (L-R): The Cooper family and management team Matt, district man- Carlson Paving was represented by Paul Bales (L), area. The company’s headquarters is located at ager; Megan, company secretary; their Mom, Jerri; and George south central regional manager, and Glenn Wittner, product support technician.

Cooper Equipment Co.’s new Georgetown, Texas, facility was the site of the grand opening celebration.

First Sale: Travis County’s Jayson Collins (R) became the first customer of Cooper’s Georgetown branch when he purchased a box of filters for the county’s Dynapac roller.

With Collins are George Cooper (L), president of Cooper Equipment, and Rick Chapman, branch manager.

Brand new Dynapac rollers, in their new red and white color scheme, were on display as was a “just-off-the-line” orange Hitachi wheel loader.

Long-time customers of Cooper Equipment, Larry Deglandon (L), retired from Travis County, and Kelly Durham of Performance Equipment Service in San Antonio came to show their support for Cooper Equipment’s new facility.

Cooper’s customers and employees were entertained by Jade Marie Patek, a nominee for Texas Regional Radio Music Award’s New Female Vocalist of the Year, and later by the Bret Mullins Band.

(L-R): Rich Wilsie, general sales manager of Etnyre; George Cooper, president of Cooper Equipment; and Don Etnyre, vice president of sales, enjoy the festivities. An Etnyre trailer served as an entertainment stage.

Customers check out the Dynapac F1000W wheeled paver at the grand opening of Cooper Equipment Company’s second location, in Georgetown, Texas.

Rick Chapman (L), branch manager of the new Cooper Equipment location, talks with customer Terry Bailey of Webber Construction about this Kawasaki (now Hitachi) wheel loader.

In addition to handling Cooper’s existing lines of asphalt-related road equipment, the Georgetown branch also will sell and support Hitachi loaders and Dynapac’s paving and compaction equipment.

Cooper Equipment Co., founded in 1959 by George’s father, Bob, who acquired the Etnyre asphalt distributor dealer rights, has remained the Etnyre dealer of south central Texas ever since. The company specializes in equipment for paving, chipseal, compaction, stabilizing, reclaiming, recycling, crack filing, sweeping and road widening.

In addition to carrying Hitachi and Dynapac, Cooper is an authorized dealer of E.D. Etnyre, Broce Broom, Carlson Paver, Puckett Paver, CPMG, DuraPatcher, Midland and Bagela recyclers.

Texas High-Speed Rail Project Reaches Another Milestone, Hires Contractor The selection of the Italian firm, one of the largest civil engineering contractors in the world, reflects the participation of global organizations that are designing and building the high-speed train connecting Houston and North Texas.

“Salini Impregilo’s knowledge and experience in designing, building and leading large scale railway projects across the world is impressive, and its presence in the U.S. market with Lane is also strategic for the project,” said Texas Central CEO Carlos F. Aguilar. “Their inclusion in the consortium highlights the stature of the Texas project and the interest of global infrastructure companies to be part of America’s first high-speed train.”

Salini Impregilo is active in more than 50 countries on five continents, with experience building more than 4,000 mi. of railway infrastructure around the world — in Australia, Europe, Asia and the Americas. It built many high-speed train projects in Europe, and some iconic, complex projects in the world in the wider transport sector, including the expansion of the Panama Canal.

The company has worked in the United States since the 1980s and expanded its presence in 2016, merging with The Lane Construction Corporation, a United States-based company with almost 130 years of experience in infrastructure work.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for us,” said Pietro Salini, CEO of the Salini Impregilo Group. “We are delighted to be invited to take part to bring high-speed train service to Texas, as we have in Italy and other countries. It is precisely the kind of large, complex infrastructure project in which we have decades of experience.”

The announcement is the latest milestone for the investorled project — a 200 mph train connecting the state’s largest population and economic regions in 90 minutes, with a midway stop in the Brazos Valley. The project will create a super-economy, connecting the 4th and 5th largest U.S. markets in fast-growing communities looking for safe, reliable and productive travel options.

As the lead of the civil construction consortium, Salini Impregilo will be responsible for all work up to the top of the rail, including viaducts, embankments and drainage.

Under the Limited Notice to Proceed (LNTP) agreement, the project’s design-build participants will proceed with the front-end engineering and design of the train’s civil infrastructure. Other services include optimizing execution approaches, strategies and logistics, as well as performing analysis to develop construction costs and schedule estimates.

That work helps to develop a design build contract that will be used to complete the civil infrastructure program.

This is a precursor to financial close, after which construction of the civil infrastructure segments of the project will begin.

The agreement is the latest example of the project bringing the best subject matter experts to the team, creating a new industry in the United States. The train will inject an estimated $36 billion in economic benefits statewide over the next 25 years, including creating 10,000 jobs per year during construction and 1,500 permanent jobs when fully operational.

The Texas train will be based on Central Japan Railway’s Tokaido Shinkansen train syste. and will be built and operated without taxpayer-funded state or federal grants.

Texas Central and its partners are refining and updating construction planning and sequencing, guided by the Federal Railroad Administration’s recently released Draft Environmental Impact Statement on the project.

That federal review cited many factors in support of the project, saying the train “is needed to accommodate growing demand” in Texas and to provide a more environmentally favorable travel alternative.

The FRA now is working on a final environmental review that will help determine the project’s timeline and final route.

(This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Texas Central Receives $300M Loan for High-Speed Train Project DALLAS (AP) A Texas company has secured a $300 million loan for a proposed high-speed rail project from Dallas to Houston.

Texas Central Partners will use the funds from Japanese sources to move forward with permitting, design and engineering, The Dallas Morning News reported. The company plans to use Japanese bullet train technology for the project, which could be the first high-speed rail service in the United States.

“This is a loan to be paid back with interest,” the company said in a statement on Sept 13. “It does not change the train’s majority-Texan ownership.”

The loan will give the company enough equity to move forward with construction once it is authorized, company officials said.

The privately funded project would cost $12 billion to $15 billion, according to Texas Central officials. The

train would make a 90-minute trip from Dallas to Houston, with one stop near Texas A&M University in Grimes County.

The 240-mi. (386-km) route could open by 2024, the company said. The project still needs final environmental clearance before the five-year construction process can begin.

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and the Federal Railroad Administration are both studying the project.

The commission, which began reviewing the project in 2017, said it typically takes more than a year to issue a permit, add conditions or deny a permit.

The administration is expected to finalize its Environmental Impact statement by Jan. 31. It would then make a decision on the project by the end of August 2019.

Salt Lake City...

Mayor Urges Residents to Vote on $87M Streets Bond Mayor Jackie Biskupski praised Salt Lake City Council Members for approving a bond election to let voters decide whether to approve an $87 million bond to repair and replace streets. The bond election will be held in November.

Mayor Biskupski campaigned on a promise to improve city streets. In her January 2018 State of the City address, she laid out her vision and gave a call to action to fix roads to “help us get around better” and “clear the air.”

A 2017 pavement condition survey found two-thirds of Salt Lake City streets are in poor or worse condition. The financial impact of the new bond would be dampened because Salt Lake City will retire two bonds in 2019 for the Main Library and The Leonardo. If voters approve the bond, an average homeowner would pay less than $5

each year in taxes.

Salt Lake City conducted a poll and found 72 percent of registered voters support the bond. The majority of supporters said the biggest reason they want the bond is to improve bad road conditions. After learning more about how the funding would be used, overall support for the bond increased to 79 percent.

“Voters now have the ability to decide whether to pay a little now or pay much more later to improve our deteriorating roads,” said Mayor Biskupski. “I urge residents to study the bond, make an informed decision and then vote on the future of Salt Lake City streets.”

State Invests in Future I-11 Linking Phoenix, Las Vegas After investing more than half a billion dollars over the past 20 years to turn the primary route between Phoenix and Las Vegas into a modern four-lane divided highway, the Arizona Department of Transportation has committed another $155 million for improvements to U.S. 93 over the next five years.

All of this is with an eye toward an Interstate 11 between the two largest cities in the country not directly connected by an interstate freeway and spanning the state from the border with Mexico to Hoover Dam. Since 2014, signs have marked U.S. 93 in Arizona as the “Future I-11 Corridor.”

“ADOT has spent years investing in the future Interstate 11 and laying the foundation for this border-to-border highway,” ADOT Director John Halikowski said. “We’re putting the pieces together today for what I-11 will be in the future. These substantial and continuing investments show our commitment to a corridor that is essential for commercial and recreational travel and also to making Arizona a better place to live and work.”

In addition to the completed and planned improvements to U.S. 93, a $134 million ADOT project beginning next year will upgrade State Route 189, the 3.75-mi.

Nogales Highway connecting Interstate 19 with the Mariposa Port of Entry. This route is essential to trade between Arizona and Mexico, the state’s largest international trading partner.

In 2015, the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act, or FAST Act, formally designated I-11 throughout Arizona. It stated that the I-11 corridor will generally follow State Route 189 and Interstate 19 from Nogales to Tucson, Interstate 10 from Tucson to Phoenix, and U.S. 93 from Wickenburg to the Nevada state line.

The designation doesn’t include funding but identifies I-11 as a high-priority corridor eligible for federal funding. ADOT continues to work with its federal, state and local partners to identify funding for I-11, which is expected to include a combination of new and existing roadways.

ADOT is currently funding and conduct-

ing an environmental study to identify a potential 2,000-ft. wide corridor for I-11 between Nogales and Wickenburg. The Tier 1 Environmental Impact Statement, required by the National Environmental Policy Act, is expected to be complete in late 2019 or early 2020. Tier 2 environmental studies would be required to narrow a corridor into a specific freeway alignment if the build option is selected as part of the Tier 1 study.

As I-11 comes closer to reality in Arizona, U.S. 93 would be upgraded to interstate highway standards, including creating traffic interchanges.

Currently all but 39 mi. of the 200-mi. drive from Wickenburg to the Nevada state line has been upgraded to a four-lane divided highway to improve traffic flow, support the movement of freight and enhance safety through this heavily traveled area. The entire northern segment of U.S. 93 from Kingman to the Nevada state line (mileposts 1 to 68) is now a four-lane divided highway following the completion of a $71 million project in 2010.

ADOT’s 2019-2023 Five-Year Transportation Facilities Construction Program includes more than $155 million dedicated to projects to improve U.S. 93 from Wickenburg to the Nevada state line north of Kingman, the designated route of I11. This includes three projects that will widen an additional 11 mi. of U.S. 93 to four-lane divided highway and the start of right-of-way acquisition for a new U.S. 93 interchange with I-40 in Kingman.

“Interstate freeways are Arizona’s Key Commerce Corridors, the foundation moving commerce and connecting friends and families,” Halikowski said. “To remain competitive in the ever-evolving global marketplace, our transportation infrastructure must advance with our state’s needs. That’s what’s behind ADOT’s ongoing commitment to advancing U.S. 93 and the concept of Interstate 11.”

Integrity Makes Sukut Construction Fixture for 50 Years Sukut established its Alternative Energy market in 2010. It handles complex solar and wind projects that vary in size from 20 to 200 MWT and are located nationwide.

Mike Crawford (L) and Mike Peak survey progress at the Bluebird Canyon project in Laguna Beach, Calif.

By Eric Olson CEG CORRESPONDENT

Hard work and integrity are key ingredients to making any business successful. Breathing life into a new company is always difficult, but growing and sustaining a business for five decades, while evolving it into a multi-million-dollar operation, is extraordinary.

Myron Sukut and Mike Crawford have done those very things.

Sukut Construction, one of Southern California’s toprated heavy civil-engineering contractors, has reached rar-

efied air as it celebrates its 50th year in business this month.

From a two-man operation in 1968, Sukut became a fastgrowing company in residential building before later entering the public works, environmental, energy and special projects markets.

Sukut also has been recognized for its work on a variety of nationwide projects, ranging from small to large, and encompassing earthmoving, dam construction, roadways, major drainage structures, environmental clean-up, landfill openings and closures and projects in the renewable energy field.

In recent years, the firm has received more than 30 industry honors, including “Contractor of the Year” by the Southern California Contractors Association and “Best Company to Work” by the Orange County Business Journal.

Starting Off Right From the very beginning, Myron Sukut, and the Santa Ana, Calif.based earthmoving company that bears his name, have enjoyed impeccable reputations, largely because they conduct business with honesty

and treat employees with respect.

Sukut and Dick Coulson were co-workers at another company in 1967 when it was suggested to them by a local equipment dealer named Chet Bitner that they should buy some of his tractors and form their own earthmoving outfit.

Although itching to strike out on his own, Sukut was understandably hesitant about taking the leap.

“I went into the office that night and said to Dick, ‘You know, Bitner just decided that you and I should go into business,’” remembered Sukut. “‘And Dick said ‘God, what a great idea!’ “‘You gotta be kidding me!’ I said. Dick had five or six children and was not really in a position to gamble too much, but he was more enthusiastic than I was.”

The two men discussed the idea for about a year before finally making the decision to create SukutCoulson in the summer of ’68. As an early sign of their integrity, though, they told their current boss that they would stay on until their In 1980, Sukut Construction moved to its current projects were completed current corporate headquarters on and their replacements were hired.

As Times Change, Sukut Construction Subtly Evolves SUKUT from page 21

Robust Market Provides a Boost That done, Sukut-Coulson benefited from good timing as it was a grading company in a rapidly expanding Southern California residential market.

“We started our first project within two weeks for a client that I had done some work for in the past and we hired some of the same guys that had previously worked for us as independent contractors,” Sukut said. “Because all these guys had jobs with other companies, we really only worked Saturdays and Sundays for the first month. But,

by December we got our first public job for the Los Angeles School District to build an access road.

That project allowed us to bring in our first foreman. After that, we just started piling up one job on top of another.”

That growth kept building over the years to where what started out as a two-person company now has over 660 employees.

Sukut Evolves Subtly in 50 Years The organizational staff has evolved over time, as well.

Although Sukut and Coulson began the venture together, in 1970 Coulson left to pursue other endeavors. By 1974, the company was renamed Sukut Construction, with Myron serving as CEO and

(L-R): Mike Crawford, Mary Shields, Mike Kelly, Jerry Pabbruwee and Myron Sukut celebrate Sukut’s 30th anniversary.

president.

In 1980, Sukut Construction moved to its current corporate headquarters on Chandler Avenue in Santa Ana. That same year, Mike Crawford began work at Sukut as a sixmonth intern while still attending college. Today, he is the company’s CEO. “I had a buddy in my classes that worked for Myron,” Crawford said. “He was always telling me about this cool company that he worked for. He said the owner takes the time to talk to his employees and values their opinions. Everybody worked hard, he said, but always found time to have fun get-togethers. I told him if ever an opportunity came up, I would love to come work for

them.”

As it turned out, while still in college Crawford ended up replacing his friend at Sukut. After graduation he interviewed with other firms before realizing he was already working for the best company for him.

“Over time, I was a project engineer, an estimator, a project manager, a superintendent and then vice president, before becoming CEO in 1999,” he added. “I guess I have done almost every job in the company over the last 38 years.”

While Crawford remains the company’s CEO, the continuing transition to yet another generation at Sukut occurred when Steve Yurosek was named president in 2017.

Before coming on board in 2004, Yurosek worked for a competitor of Sukut’s in the Los

Angeles area. When that company was forced to close, Crawford, who knew Yurosek through the local building industry, called him the same day to offer him a position.

“Because I had relationships and contacts with builders in L.A., I opened an office for Sukut in that city and ran it for several years,” Yurosek said. “It was a natural fit because, at that time, Sukut was looking to increase its footprint in this area. Within a few years, Sukut reorganized and I started heading up our residential market, working primarily with Southern California’s diverse and wideranging residential homebuilders. I was promoted to president in 2017.”

Sukut “Specializes” in Variety In the beginning, Sukut focused on grading for many of the major residential communities in Orange County. But Sukut did not stop there. In the last 50 years, Sukut has expanded to specialize in five general market areas. Still a fixture in the work it does for home

builders, Sukut also takes on public works projects, as well as environmental, energy and special projects and joint ventures.

“Our environmental work encompasses landfill construction, landfill closures and environmental clean-ups,” Crawford said. “In fact, right now we are working on cleaning up after several of California’s big wildfires. We’ve been hired by Cal Fire [California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection] to come in and remove the residences that have burned, as well as handle the toxic material left behind, and re-grade the lots so homes can be rebuilt and families can come home again. It’s important work and we’re honored to do it.”

Sukut’s work in the renewable energy sector has concentrated on helping build solar farms in the deserts nearby and in Nevada, but also in areas as far away as eastern Virginia and other east-coast sites.

In the public-works arena, Sukut has built a seemingly endless list of streets, roads, pipelines and other drainage structures for various see SUKUT page 24

Sukut 241/261 Toll Road design-build project that include the grading and construction of a 26-mi. long, six-lane highway, which was completed under budget and one year ahead of schedule.

1977, Myron Sukut (L) talks with Jess Militello about the dumping pattern of the scrapers at the job site under development for the planned Crown Valley Shopping center in Mission Viejo, Calif.

Sukut was well-placed to respond to the residential housing boom that swept through Orange County in the 1970s.

Sukut placed 5 million cu. yds. of compacted fill to buttress North Landslide Complex at Frank R. Bowerman Landfill.

Sukut Construction ‘Specializes in Variety’ of Services

Sukut moved more than 3.5 million cu. yds. of dirt in order to grade 121 pads at the Headlands Reserve project in Dana Point. The entire project was approximately 65 acres with Sukut performing 85 percent of the work.

The Calaveras Dam Replacement project is a joint venture between Dragados – USA Inc., Flatiron West Inc. and Sukut Construction. The scope included construction of a zone fill earthen dam, downstream of the existing Calaveras Dam for the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission and involved more than 6 million yds. of excavation over the last 7.5 years.

county, state and federal government agencies.

Crawford said that when a project is too large for Sukut to build by itself or when partnering with another construction company can result in a better product for the owner, the company has mastered the art of working cohesively with other companies in joint ventures.

Twenty-Six Miles of Good Road Sukut’s first and largest such joint venture project to date was the Eastern Corridor 241-261 Toll Road through the rugged Santa Ana Mountains of Orange County. The designbuild project consisted of a six-lane highway stretching for 26 miles.

As the prime earthmover on the job, Sukut moved 67 million cu. yds. of earth, including 15 million cu. yds. of rock.

Earthwork excavation included cuts with 300-ft. and 400-ft.deep fills, the movement of dirt for 72 bridges, the construction of 102 structures encompassing 82,000 cu. yds. of

Sukut excavated and hauled more than 1.25 million cu. yds. of rock material out of the future marina site for use in the 117-ft. raise on the San Vicente Dam project. Sukut then placed 825,000 cu. yds. of fill to create the future boat ramp and marina site.

From the very beginning, Myron Sukut (R), and the Santa Ana, Calif.based earthmoving company that bears his name, have enjoyed impeccable reputations, largely because they conduct business with honesty and treat employees with respect. Also pictured are Steve Yurosek (L), president, and Mike Crawford, CEO.

drainage concrete, and 213,000 linear ft. of storm drain pipe. This work also included hundreds of utility relocations.

By partnering with Flatiron Construction, Wayss & Freytag and Obyashi Corp., the toll-road project was completed in 1998 under budget and approximately one year ahead of schedule. As a result, it became one of the most successful design-build transportation projects in Southern California and earned five national awards.

“At that time, we were a company that did about $30 million in revenue a year, but we were one of the top grading contractors in Orange County,” said Crawford. “When the toll road job came up for bid, it was a $700 million project — clearly too big for us — but we were the most uniquely qualified to move the dirt on the project. We ended up being the low bidders by over $100 million, a fact that stressed Myron a bit as he was still financially guaranteeing the company’s performance.”

Crawford described the road project as logistically “difficult” and a job that left no room for error on Sukut’s part.

“It was a pivotal job for us and a fantastic success that we parlayed into growing the business even further,” he said.

A Project That Simply Cannot Fail Currently, Sukut is working as a joint venture partner on the replacement of the Calaveras Dam in Northern California, a project that Crawford describes as its most difficult yet.

Built for the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission near Fremont, he said the earthen dam is technically challenging, has many see SUKUT page 26

Sukut Construction: Looking Ahead to Next Generation

geological issues and has come with “lots of changes.”

“But, we have managed the project well. Dams are challenging by their nature and made more so by many inspections, rules and specifications. Quality construction is needed, though, because you are protecting the supply of water and the lives of the people downstream,” he said.

Most of the structural work is complete, Crawford reported, with the rest of the joint venture’s remaining work being the construction of access roads to and around the Calaveras Dam. He expects the job to be completed next summer.

Looking Ahead to a New Generation Fifty years of continued success has put Sukut Construction in an expansive mood.

tinue to look for projects that have large earthwork, pipeline and energy components that can utilize our core competencies. And we’re always on the lookout for good people as well.”

Sukut also has expanded the ownership of the company to 85 shareholders, many of whom are key people within the business.

“That’s been one of our best attributes,” Crawford proudly admitted. “I think that’s a one of the reasons for our continued success.”

While continuing to provide earth-moving technology at more than 30 sites throughout California, Sukut has committed to expanding its role as a steward in developing effective and environmentally sound earthmoving solutions.

Sukut entered a joint venture Lake Isabella Dam Safety Modification project with Flatiron and Dragados. The $241-million dollar construction effort to improve the Dam will take about 3 years to complete.

Offshore Oil...

Brown Signs Bills to Block Offshore Drilling Expansion On Sept. 8 Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr. signed legislation — SB 834 by Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara) and AB 1775 by Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance) — to block new federal offshore oil drilling along California’s coast, and announced the state’s opposition to the federal government’s plan to expand oil drilling on public lands in California.

“Today, California’s message to the Trump administration is simple: Not here, not now,” said Brown. “We will not let the federal government pillage public lands and destroy our treasured coast.”

This action came days before grassroots activists, mayors, governors, heads of industry and international leaders convened in San Francisco for the express purpose of mobilizing climate action at the Global Climate Action Summit.

SB 834 and AB 1775 block the Trump administration’s plan to expand offshore oil drilling by prohibiting new leases for new construction of oil- and gas-related infrastructure, such as pipelines, within state waters if the federal government authorizes any new offshore oil leases.

“From the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill to the 2015 Refugio spill, I represent a community that knows all too well the devastation oil spills can bring to our economy and environment. I’m very pleased to see this legislation signed into law, because we’ve always known that if we don’t drill, it can’t spill,” said Jackson.

The bills also require new public notices and processes for lease renewals, extension amendments or modifications to authorize new construction of oil and gas-related infrastructure associated with new federal leases.

There has been no federal expansion of oil and gas drilling along California’s coastline for more than 30 years.

“With the signing of AB 1775 and SB 834, California is fighting back against the Trump administration’s plan to expand offshore oil drilling off California’s coast. We are standing up to protect the South Bay in my district and our state’s entire coast from the threat of more offshore oil drilling and ugly oil rigs. I thank Gov. Brown for leading the resistance and Sen. Jackson for working with me to protect our state’s multibilliondollar coastal economy and beautiful beaches and coastline,” said Muratsuchi.

Separately, Brown submitted the state’s formal opposition to the Bureau of Land

Management’s proposal to open new public land and mineral estates for oil and gas lease sales.

“It has been more than twenty years since the Bureau of Land Management last expanded the availability of federal public lands and mineral estates for oil and gas leases in the Central Valley and Central Coast of California. Since then, the world’s understanding of the threats of climate change has greatly advanced and, in many cases, these threats have become reality,” said Brown in his letter to the U.S. secretary of the interior.

“The bureau’s proposal to open up new areas of the state to oil and gas production demonstrates an ignorance of these critical developments, and is contrary to the course California has set to combat climate change and to meet its share of the goals outlined in the Paris Agreement. The Bureau should abandon this effort and not pursue opening any new areas for oil and gas leases in this state.”

In addition to the letter, the state also included comments on the proposal from the California Department of Conservation, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the California Department of Water Resources, the California Department of Parks and Recreation, the California Air Resources Board and the State Water Resources Control Board.

Earlier this year, Brown joined Oregon Gov. Kate Brown and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee to condemn the Trump administration’s proposal to expand oil and gas offshore drilling. The governor also has voiced California’s opposition to this proposal in discussions with the U.S. secretary of the interior in January and February. In late 2016, Gov. Brown called on the federal government to use its authority under Section 12(a) of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act to withdraw federal waters off the coast of California from new offshore oil and gas leasing and guarantee the prohibition of future oil and gas drilling in these waters.

The governor also signed AB 2864 by Assemblymember Monique Limón (DSanta Barbara), which will improve the assessment of damage and restoration and mitigation measures after an oil spill affecting coastal resources.

New Designs Enhance Reliability of Loaders, Dozers

By Eric Olson

CEG CORRESPONDENT

Rough and tough. Stable and highly maneuverable.

Always does the job.

Those are the qualities contractors have come to expect from two machines that are ubiquitous on any construction site: bulldozers and crawler, or track, loaders.

These rugged pieces of equipment are designed to handle dirt, rock and timber loads with relative ease, and their evolving technology has made them simpler and more comfortable to operate.

For decades, dozers and track loaders have been the backbone of the earthmoving industry, highly regarded for their versatility and reliability.

Both utilize stabilizing tracks that allow them to maneuver across often difficult terrain as diverse as rocky mining sites, steep hills, thick forests and shallow swamps.

Despite a similarity in how crawler loaders and dozers are built, there are clear differences in how they work. For one, a loader uses various sized buckets on its front end for lifting and hauling materials. The mission of a dozer, on the other hand, is primarily to perform precision grading and push large amounts material, such as dirt, rock, sand and downed trees, during excavation.

Blades and Rippers Make Dozers a Terror The tools used by dozer operators sound like something out of a horror movie.

Bulldozers are high-functioning machines that wield blades and rippers, tools that work with surprising finesse and precision.

The substantial metal blade on the front deftly pushes dirt, rock and rubble across earthmoving and land-clearing sites.

At the rear of the machine is the ripper, a claw-like attachment that loosens densely compacted material.

Rippers can come as a single shank or in groups of two or more. Usually, a single shank is preferred for heavy ripping, such as breaking surface rock or pavement into small rubble to make it easy to haul away so that grading can take place.

The most common blade currently used by bulldozers is

the six-way blade, which is located inside the machine’s steering carriage and allows an operator to maneuver the tool up, down, tilt-left, tilt-right, angle-up and angle-down. Other common blade configurations are the full-U, semi-U and straight tools.

New Technologies Improve Dozer Productivity Among the companies that design and build the best bulldozers today are Caterpillar, John Deere, Komatsu and LiuGong Dressta, a relative newcomer to the North American marketplace.

Bulldozer tracks are noted for their excellent ground-holding capability and mobility. In addition, a dozer’s track helps distribute the machine’s weight over a large area, which decreases ground pressure and helps it move more easily through soft earth.

But today’s dozers are much better than in decades past at performing a task no other machine can.

“Well, certainly, grade control has been the most impactful technological advancement in dozers over the past

Dozers wield blades and rippers that work with surprising finesse and precision.

Because of its mobility, a crawler loader can be more versatile than a hydraulic excavator, said Chris Schaub, product consultant of crawlers at John Deere Construction and Forestry.

decade,” said Chris Schaub, product consultant of crawlers at John Deere Construction and Forestry.

“Speaking for our company, the introduction of John Deere’s SmartGrade option has been a key advancement for many of our customers. SmartGrade reduces repair costs and fully optimizes the machine’s performance and production throughout the job, rather than just controlling the blade on a finishing pass. It also integrates the grade control into the machine’s power management system and controls the blade based on engine load, making this system easy for operators of all skill levels.”

Other bulldozer manufacturers agreed that grade-control technology is the greatest leap forward in recent years for most contractors in terms of improving productivity, while lowering costs.

“There is no question dozers are increasingly performing more finish-grading work,” explained Charles Murawski, product manager of bulldozers at Komatsu America. “At Komatsu, we have recently introduced the D65PX/PXi-18 with its wide power-angle tilt blade, 36-inch-wide track shoes and long 10-foot, 9-inch track on ground.

“The blade is 7 percent wider for more productive finishgrading work, the track shoes are 20 percent wider for more floatation in soft soil, and the long track on ground provides excellent balance for a smooth ride and smooth grading.

Komatsu dozers also have many custom settings for engine, transmission and work equipment to suit each operator preference for speed.”

Another good example of the modern dozer is the new Cat D8T, which is engineered to move more material in less time, at a lower cost per ton, giving owners a faster return on their investment.

Unveiled in June, the D8T features an all-new, fully automatic transmission capable of delivering up to 18 percent more productivity without consuming more fuel, as well as unprecedented ease of operation. Added blade capacity, increased power and steering performance, and a full range of technology options will likely help customers realize more productivity and a faster payback.

match the customer needs,” said Sam Meeker, product application specialist at Caterpillar. “Every year, the key focus areas for our company are to make updates to machine power, efficiency, balance, steering, technology and operator comfort.

“Several of our new models have increased not only engine horsepower, but drawbar power to the ground. This is accomplished through engine improvements, powertrain updates such as autoshift and lock-up clutch torque converters, with plenty of technology supporting the powertrain.”

Since 2013, when it was purchased by LiuGong, a Chinese equipment manufacturer, Dressta has been rapidly improving its dozer lineup to compete better with the larger and more established equipment makers. In that time, it has modernized its designs and made its machines more attractive to users.

“One thing the company is very proud of is the two-speed travel in the planetaries of its dozers, which means a sixspeed machine in a two-speed transmission,” explained Michael Watt, a product manager at LiuGong Dressta Machinery. “In 2016, Dressta changed the drivetrain substantially, starting with its smaller models, the TD-8s and TD-9s, with 95 horsepower and 115 horsepower, respectively.”

Those changes have increased the reputation of Dressta’s bulldozers to the point that Watt said the midsized TD-15 is one of the most popular dozers in the United States in terms of sales volume.

“Dressta is passionate about its drawbar-pull capacity — one of the highest in the industry — and what that means is it can put a larger ripper on our machine compared to the competition,” he continued. “In the past when you wanted to remove rock, you drilled and blasted, but with a Dressta ripper, dozer horsepower and our drawbar pull, we can do about the same amount of rock removal as contractors that use dynamite.”

Designs and innovations that help crawler-machine operators do their jobs more easily while enjoying more comfort in a safe environment also are high priorities for product engineers.

For instance, Komatsu’s line of slant-nose dozers provides

New features for Cat dozers include a heavy-duty extended life offering.

visibility across the entire width of the blade, Murawski said, thereby improving productivity — even while working around obstacles. In addition, all Komatsu dozers include a standard rear monitoring camera that provides an expanded field of vision.

“We have also improved the spools in the hydraulic control-valves by reshaping them to provide good feather ability and smooth operation of the work equipment,” he added.

“The control levers are low effort with more fingertip control switches.”

Komatsu’s Komtrax telematics system, like that found in other dozers, includes fuel consumption reports, idle time and machine operation settings that can be used to benchmark, and subsequently initiate, changes that lower operating costs.

Each dozer maker offers special application packages designed for different jobs, Murawski said.

“At Komatsu, we have packages for work with pipelines, waste handling, woodchip stockpiling and forestry,” he explained. “The specialized blades can usually mount using Komatsu factory trunnions.”

Improvements to Undercarriages Mean Easier Maintenance DESIGNS from page 32

dozers steer the same and maintain speed no matter the ground slope, giving the operator ultimate control, according to Schaub’s colleague Nathan Horstman, who serves as John Deere’s product marketing manager for bulldozers.

“Additionally, our dozers have a counter rotate feature that enables extremely tight turns and allows the operator to overcome heavy corner loads and easily reposition the machine on the go,” Horstman said.

Jack of All Trades Once thought to be nearing extinction a few decades ago after the introduction of hydraulic excavators, crawler loaders, with their greater lifting power and flexibility, have since proven to be more maneuverable and better suited to many projects.

“Depending on the task, a crawler loader can be more versatile than a hydraulic excavator due to its mobility,” said Schaub. “For work in certain regions — whether it is being used for excavation, such as for a home basement, backfilling or demolition — the John Deere 755K model is the preferred choice, due to the large 3.2-cubic-yard bucket and exceptional mobility.”

Compared with excavators, he added, crawler loaders can move more material per pass, allowing operators to spread material or load trucks over greater distances. Over the years, loaders have evolved into rear-engine hydrostatic machines, resulting in improved front visibility and maneuverability.

Even though crawler loaders and bulldozers have long been used on hills and slopes, their ability to maintain stability, as well as maneuver over the terrain with little effort, has been a result of intense engineering efforts.

“The tracks on John Deere’s crawlers offer unmatched traction compared to any wheeled machine,” Schaub said.

“Coupled with the John Deere full-hydrostatic transmissions, these machines offer unparalleled controllability on slopes with hydrostatic braking and hill-hold features.”

Often working in tandem with bulldozers, crawler loaders see DESIGNS page 38

Since it was purchased by LiuGong, a Chinese equipment manufacturer, in 2013, Dressta has been working to improve its dozer lineup.

New Technology in Dozers Leads to Increase in Productivity DESIGNS from page 37

can accomplish several different tasks beyond their primary function of moving and lifting materials.

“Track loaders are the jack of all trades,” said Meeker. “They can doze, load, excavate, transport — you name it. In comparison to an excavator, a track loader can transport materials faster, traverse a job site, work slopes, and often load trucks faster. They are a great support tool to have on many projects.”

Crawler loaders also can be equipped with a variety of attachments.

At Cat, for instance, the maker’s Fusion coupler interface allows operators to quickly switch out attachments on the job, eliminating the need to drive pins in and out to swap tools that lift, haul, sweep or stack.

Cat and John Deere are the leading makers of these reliable machines.

Tracks Are Only as Good as Their Undercarriages The most important mechanism used by both bulldozers and crawler loaders is their undercarriage, a complex system that both supports and propels them.

The various components that make up

undercarriages include, first and foremost, the tracks themselves, which are made of either rubber or steel and guided along by grousers — devices that help increase traction and generally come in the form of flat plates or bars.

But many other parts also can be found on an undercarriage, working synchronously to power the crawlers, including links, pins, bushings, sprockets rollers, idlers, shoes and frames.

The maintenance of undercarriage systems, as well as the availability of their parts, is key to the bottom line of any contractor that uses tracked equipment.

As much as half of a crawler’s repair bill over its lifespan could potentially come from an undercarriage if it is not soundly maintained — a fact not lost on manufacturers, whose engineers are always thinking about how to build undercarriages to work more cost-effectively and keep repairs and parts replacements at a minimum.

“Undercarriages are about 20 percent of the cost of manufacturing dozers and track loaders,” explained Watt. “Therefore, undercarriage replacement parts account for substantial aftermarket sales. Dressta has realized that and, in turn, has looked at different

Overall design of Cat crawlers continues to evolve.

ways of changing its undercarriage design to increase component life span, especially on the TD-25R.” Dressta manufactures a full line of bulldozers, including the popular TD-8S, TD-9S and TD-15R EX models, and in the near future, Watt said, Dressta’s engineers will introduce an improved undercarriage design that utilizes more of a free-floating, or bogie, suspension to give the operator a smoother ride, more drawbar pull, better performance and a longer overall undercarriage life.

“That is a focus based on feedback from customers in the field to drive down owner/operator costs,” he said.

Because of the wear and tear all tracked machines suffer during their working lives,

manufacturers are searching for innovative ways to help keep the costs per hour low. As a result, most undercarriages are composed of modular parts that can be replaced quickly.

“At Komatsu, our PLUS rotating bushing undercarriage has more than doubled the wear life of our bulldozers when used in severe applications, such as moving Florida sand or fracking sand,” explained Murawski.

“This not only reduces operating costs by up to 40 percent for our end-users, but also reduces machine down time for them.”

Meeker added that Cat undercarriage technology, like the overall design of crawler machines, will continue to evolve to give contractors better value.

“We are trying to do that with a couple of new features for Cat dozers, like our new heavy-duty extended life (HDXL) offering, as well as system one updates,” he said.

“HDXL now has a larger link, with more wear material and deeper hardened depth, providing up to 30 percent more link life.

System One works to continues to update with better sealing, smoother seal surfaces, and further packing resistance.”

JCB Wins More Army Orders for Engineer Excavators **$0 Down, 0% A.P.R. fi

JCB has received an extension to its current production contract with the Department of Defense to manufacture high mobility engineer excavators (HMEEs) for the United States Army. The $72.8 million deal for approximately 180 HMEEs will continue production through 2020. A new multi-year contract is expected in the future and will further HMEE production into the middle of the next decade.

The HMEE is a mobile, versatile construction machine well-suited to a range of military and disaster relief missions, including earthmoving, fortification construction and ground clearing. The design leverages JCB’s proven commercial products, including the 4CX-15 SUPER — the largest backhoe loader available in North America and the JCB Fastrac — the world’s fastest production tractor, according to the manufacturer.

In addition to its top speed of 55 mph, the HMEE is certified for military transport on ships, rail and aircraft, and for airdrop operations. It is available in various configurations including an armored specification.

In 2005, JCB won the first multi-year production contract for 636 machines, valued at approximately $209 million, with an additional service contract worth approximately $20 million. Subsequent contract extensions and international sales have boosted production to 1,000 machines.

Mont. Dealers Celebrate RDO Equipment’s 50th Anniversary

I

n 2018, RDO Equipment Co. is celebrating 50 years of partnerships, gratitude and vision in the equipment industry. All year, stores across the RDO Equipment Co. are marking the milestone in different ways.

On Sept. 20, the Kalispell, Mont., location transformed its service shop into a gathering space for team members and customers to celebrate. Special 50th anniversary-themed items were given away and all attendees enjoyed lunch.

Following a successful event at the Kalispell store, the Missoula, Mont., team held its event Sept. 21 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Customers and community members were invited to the store for a BBQ lunch, activities and giveaways.

One of the highlights, according to Eric Mitchell, service operations manager, was attendance from a group of students from Missoula College University of Montana.

“We have a student from the college in our Access Your Future internship program,” Eric said. “It was neat to see interest from his fellow students and we enjoyed hosting them and telling them more about RDO Equipment Co.” Eric said team members enjoyed the opportunity to spend time with customers, especially those they don’t get to see often, as well as interact with community members.

For more information, visit rdoequipment.com.

The Missoula team took advantage of nice weather to have lunch outside.

Several machines were on display at the Missoula store.

The Kalispell store opened up its service shop for lunch.

Every RDO Equipment Co. store received giant “50” numbers to use in their own way to celebrate the 50th anniversary.

Both stores offered special 50th anniversary-logoed items for attendees.

Several attendees participated in activities that gave them the chance to get in the operator’s seat.

Team members were able to spend time with guests throughout the afternoon.

The Kalispell store had plenty of new machines on display for customers to check out.

Missoula’s guests took in the view as they enjoyed an outdoor lunch.

Volvo’s DD105 Compactor Features Oscillation Technology The 11 ton (10 t) DD105 OSC asphalt compactor from Volvo Construction Equipment is engineered for efficiency, ensuring increased profitability while minimizing fuel consumption, emissions and noise, according to the manufacturer.

Fitted with flexibility of Volvo’s oscillation technology, which eliminates vertical vibrations, the DD105 OSC offers high compaction performance while producing a non-damaging oscillation movement. This transfers less stress to the surrounding surface, enabling compaction in more delicate application areas, such as bridges, over pipes and close to residential areas.

Featuring a 66.1 in. (168 cm) wide drum with hardened, abrasion-resistant alloy steel drum shell, the DD105 OSC is powered by an advanced Tier IV Final D3.8 Volvo engine, helping this robust machine deliver high performance.

Tailored Compaction in Fewer Passes In addition to the oscillation technology, adapting to different job sites is easy. With the option of using a drum with eight amplitude settings or two, changes can be made according to the surroundings and material depth, adding further to the machine’s versatility. Selecting the amplitude most suitable for the mix conditions and thickness enables the operator to reach a higher quality of work in fewer passes.

The DD105 OSC is built to work hard and offers features that are designed with the operator in mind. The open ROPS/FOPS canopy and the optional enclosed cab combine comfort, control and visibility, ensuring a productive operator environment.

From the air suspension seat, the operator has a commanding view of the job site, as well as clear sightlines down to the drum and spray bars, enhancing safety and rolling precision. The view of curbs and obstructions is enhanced with off-set steering, aiding precise compaction.

With ergonomically-positioned controls and joystick, maneuverability is improved for the operator, who can rely on the anti-slip control to easily load and unload the machine without damaging the pavement.

Ultimate Performance and Uptime To accommodate variable site conditions, the Volvo DD105 OSC double drum compactor is equipped with features that ensure a smooth and consistent mat finish. The drum vibration system enables operators to achieve target density across different applications, by utilizing a high centrifugal force and 8-amplitude option. In appropriate amplitudes, the compactor operates more effectively, helping operators achieve a high quality finish in fewer passes.

The DD105 OSC features an automatic drum water sys-

tem with triple filtration, providing uniform coverage with variable flow to prevent material pick-up. With features that include primary and backup pumps, primary and backup spray bars for each drum, hand serviceable nozzles, as well as drum wipers, the automatic drum wetting system delivers unbeatable efficiency for ultimate machine availability, according to the manufacturer.

The Easy Life Beyond operator comfort and productivity-enhancing features, the DD105 OSC double drum compactor is designed for simple service and maintenance. The swing-up hood provides complete access to the engine and hydraulic components, for efficient service inspections and maintenance.

Utilizing a single key, technicians can access daily service hatches, while fuses and relays are grouped together. With ground-level access to the engine, radiator, battery and filters, daily checkpoints are unobstructed, making maintenance easy.

Volvo’s extensive local dealer support network ensures machine uptime, helping customers generate maximum profit and grow their business.

Dynapac’s CC950 Asphalt Roller: Small Size, Big Impact Dynapac’s small tandem asphalt roller CC950 is primarily for small-scale compaction work such as pavements, bicycle paths, small roads and parking areas — places that need compaction but are difficult to reach with a larger roller. This small tandem roller comes with an operating mass of approximately 1.6 tons (1.4 t) and a drum width of 38 in. (96.5 t).

The Dynapac CC950 is equipped with a water-cooled, three cylinder, 4-stroke Kubota D722-E4B-KEA-2 diesel engine.

This is compliant with EPA Tier IV and produces 20.3 hp (14.9 kW). Together with the large drum diameter and drive motors connected in series, it contributes to increased accessibility and hill-climbing capacity.

The Dynapac CC950 has 4200 vpm (70 Hz) vibrations on the front drum only and a static rear drum. The rear drum is equipped with shock absorbers to minimize vibrations in the operator’s platform. The operator’s platform is very operator friendly, offering both a lot of space and ergonomically positioned steps.

In order to minimize maintenance costs, the Dynapac CC950 has long service intervals. Both the steering hitch and steering cylinder are maintenance free. The few remaining service points are easily accessible. The instrument panel has an hour meter, horn switch, warning lights for brake, battery charging indicator, engine oil pressure indicator and glow plug for aiding engine start at cold temperatures.

Other features and benefits: • The water tank holds 50 gal. (190 L), gravity feed, placed above spray bars — allowing long periods of work between refills.

• A foldable ROPS is a standard option, which keeps the transport height to a minimum.

• High clearance adjacent to the edge of the drums, both on left and right side facilitates compaction close to high curbs.

• Three LED work lights • A low total cost of ownership has always constituted guidelines for Dynapac product development. For this reason, high capacity, great reliability and premium quality are natural features in all Dynapac products, according to the manufacturer.

Tips to Prep Your Wheel Loader for Winter Workloads Mike Stark, Doosan wheel loader product specialist, provides five tips to help you get the most out of your wheel loader this winter.

By Allison McNeal SPECIAL TO CEG

With winter quickly approaching, it is important to think about preparing your wheel loader for winter operation, specifically snow removal. Before the first snow arrives, it is important to ensure your wheel loader is properly maintained and prepared to push, lift and dump snow. Mike Stark, Doosan wheel loader product specialist, provides five tips to help you get the most out of your wheel loader this winter.

1. Review the manufacturer’s operation and maintenance manual.

It may seem like common sense, but it can’t be overstated. Review your machine’s operation and maintenance manual for recommended intervals and a checklist of seasonal maintenance items, as well as oil and fluid

recommendations. Ideally, you and your wheel loader operators should request maintenance training and assistance from your local equipment dealer on proper techniques, and familiarize yourself with decals and key maintenance points on the machine.

Your wheel loader operation and maintenance manual should instruct you on what machine components should be inspected regularly. They include the following: • Fluids and filters • Battery • Tire pressure • Heating and defrosting systems 2. Check fluids and filters.

Colder temperatures can affect a wheel loader’s ability to run efficiently, especially if it does not have the proper engine oil. That is why it is important to match wheel loader fluids to the proper ambient temperatures. Most

wheel loader manufacturers recommend CJ4 engine oils to protect the machine’s vital engine components.

“If you use incorrect diesel engine oil, it can cause costly damage to the machine’s internal components,” Stark said. “These components can become plugged, corroded and ultimately, not work efficiently. Make sure to refer to your owner’s manual for instructions on filling your machine at the recommended intervals with the appropriate fluid in the correct increments.”

Also, verify the quality of fuel you are using from your provider, checking to make sure water and other contaminants are not present in your fuel.

“Switching to a special winter-blend fuel — typically No. 1 and No. 2 diesel — can help you prepare for cold temperatures,” Stark see WINTERIZING page 66

Cool Down After Working Going through a cool down procedure after a shift is a good practice to follow, said Mike Stark, Doosan wheel loader product specialist.

“If you’re working hard, even in very cold weather, everything heats up. If you let it cool down, it benefits the engine life. A lot of people immediately stop the machine when they are done working. Wait a few minutes before you shut off your engine.”

said. “Investing in quality fuel that is blended appropriately for the climate and season may give you better peace of mind, lower your consumption, provide fewer filter changes and deliver long component life.

“It’s a good idea to top off the diesel tank at the end of the day or shift,” he said.

“Overall, it’s a good practice to follow yearround. It reduces the air in the tank. The wheel loader heats up during the day. When the operator turns it off, it cools down, and no matter what, you start getting condensation in the tank.”

Another item to consider is the type of aftertreatment system, especially those machines equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) meet Tier IV emission standards. SCR components require diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). This aqueous solution is susceptible to variations in hot and cold temperatures.

“In very cold temperatures, DEF can freeze so wheel loader owners should make sure they keep DEF in storage during the winter months,” Stark said. “Purity and concentration are critical with DEF, so make sure to work with a local dealer to better understand how to store and handle DEF.”

Stark also recommends to inspect the air filtration system and to always use the correct replacement filter to reduce the risk of premature engine failure.

3. Inspect tires, batteries and components.

Winter maintenance also means checking the tires, batteries and other wheel loader components before using or storing the machine. Undetected leaks or improper inflation can lead to premature wear and potentially tire failure over time.

“Low tire pressure can decrease push capabilities, which is not ideal for snow removal applications,” Stark said. “Using L3 radial tires may be best during winter because they provide good traction in snowy conditions. Inflating tires with Nitrogen gas is a good alternative to assist in maintaining proper tire pressure.”

He recommends all contractors and their operators become familiar with the manufacturer’s operation and maintenance manual for proper psi and inflate the tires accordingly.

Before cold weather hits, it also is important to inspect the wheel loader’s battery and charge it if needed.

“There is always a draw on the battery, so unless the battery has been maintained or

disconnected while stored, it will slowly run down and will need to be charged before use,” Stark said.

For batteries that need to be charged, a trickle charger can be connected to help build the voltage at a slower rate, improving the battery life. Battery connections should also be inspected and cleaned at this time.

Corroded terminals can cause hard starting and charging issues.

Additionally, check the cab door and window seals to ensure there are no leaks or cracks, and install a new windshield wiper blade and add low-temperature washer fluid.

Be sure to replace any burnt-out bulbs to ensure your operators have the appropriate lighting when working in low light or at night.

4. Store the wheel loader inside.

Cold weather requires batteries to generate nearly twice as many cranking amps in order to turn over. If possible, in extreme cold, when the temperature falls below zero degrees Fahrenheit, keep your wheel loader in a heated facility; it’s easier on the machine.

“If owners are not able to keep wheel loaders inside, it is important to park the machine out of the wind,” Stark said. “It is also advantageous to keep the equipment out of direct sunlight, if possible.”

If you are unable to keep your wheel loader inside a building, at least plug in the block heater; available as an option. A block heater will help keep the machine’s engine warm, making it easier to start while reducing wear on engine components. If you do not have a block heater, consider purchasing and installing one in fall.

5. Prepare attachments.

Wheel loaders are valuable fleet assets during winter for a number of reasons, but one of the most prominent is their ability to be fitted with application-specific attachments which can be made easier with the use of optional quick couplers.

Attachments such as quick couplers, buckets, pallet forks and snow pushers deserve the same attention as the machine to which it is connected. Perform visual checks of attachment components such as hoses, cylinders, guards, and cutting edges for damage. Make sure snow pusher attachments interfacing with a bucket are properly secured with chains.

By following these five tips, you can be better prepared to tackle snow piles and help keep your machine running strong all winter.

Odessa, Texas...

Ritchie Bros. Sells Loadcraft 2000HP SCR Drill Rig for $5.5M at Auction Kruse Energy Auctioneers, a Ritchie Bros. solution focusing on energy equipment-related auctions, recently sold a Loadcraft 2000HP SCR drilling rig at its event in Odessa, Texas, for $5.5 million, making it the most expensive drilling rig the company has ever sold. The high bidder for the rig was Scandrill Inc., an onshore drilling contractor operating in the Permian Basin, Louisiana, and Texas. Scandrill Inc. currently has 15 rigs in operation.

“This is the most expensive single item we’ve ever purchased by auction; and we’ve been in business for 41 years,” said Paul M. Mosvold, president and COO of Scandrill. “It definitely makes your palms sweaty when you’re making bids that high.”

“The 2008 built DSI/Loadcraft rig was an opportunistic purchase — we haven’t decided exactly where and who it will be drilling for, but likely it will be put to work for our Texas operation,” said Mosvold. “The rig has ‘good bones’ and will eventually be upgraded to become our 3rd Super Spec Shales Rig or as we call our rigs, Norseman II series.”

Close to 1,300 equipment items were sold in the Kruse Energy auction in Odessa on Sept. 27, 2018, including coiled tubing, frac and cement equipment, well service rigs, pumps,

drill pipe, truck, trailers and more. Other sales highlights included a 2013 MAD T/A cement pump trailer and an acid frac pump trailer that sold for $225,000 each; two FORUM 2250 hydraulic pipe handlers that sold for $135,000 each; and a 2006 Peterbilt 378 tri-axle truck tractor sold for $50,000.

“On top of the record-breaking drilling rig, we saw strong pricing for most of the equipment in our September Kruse auction, including a large dispersal of 221 items for B.J. Services,” said Jeff Jeter, president of U.S. Sales, Ritchie Bros. “There’s some real positive momentum in the market right now for energy equipment, as witnessed in the Kruse event and other recent Ritchie Bros. auctions. We are already accepting consignments for our next Kruse auction in Oklahoma City on Oct. 31 to Nov. 1 and Odessa, Texas, on Dec. 5 to 6.”
