Equipment
We currently operate both a Case CX31 3.5 ton mini excavator and a Case CX180c 18-ton 360-degree excavator, specially modified for ground-preparation operations in the light of our many years' experience. The CX180 is equipped with extra heavy duty guarding, long range fuel tanks, cb radios and extra wide track pads to provide maximum flotation on soft ground and minimum impact in sensitive areas - in addition we also have a set of extra low ground pressure 1.2m wide tracks which enables the machine with incredible peat and soft ground capabilities. The machines are equipped to take hydraulic hammers, mulching heads and a full range of attachments. Each machine has its own bunded lockable steel 'grab' tank, which can be picked up and carried by the machine, to enable the safe transportation of fuel either on site or on the open hill.
We have a full range of digging buckets, V draining buckets, flat ditching buckets and tilting buckets for precise grading and finishing work as well as a seppi BMS-L mulching head, capable of mulching everything from roadside vegetation such as heather,bracken and gorse right up to standing timber, such as sitka spruce or larchwith no economic value. Our own towable bunded fuel bowsers, range of plant trailers, Quad bikes, 4x4 pickup and van ensure we always have the right equipment for accessing any job no matter how remote or awkward.
We are set up to work independently anywhere throughout Scotland, either as a one two or three man team.
