Contractors Hire Ltd, a plant and tool hire business based in Reading, has made a major investment in modernising its plant hire fleet this year despite all the implications of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Committed to excellent customer service and providing modern, market leading equipment Contractors Plant Hire has invested in 24 new machines all purchased from Tring based Boss Plant Sales Ltd. The 22 Kubota and 2 Manitou machines were delivered by Boss Plant Sales between March and July and all are now hard at work in housebuilding, and infrastructure development and repair.

The new Kubota machines are models U10-3 (1.1t), KX016-4 (1.5t) and U27-4 (2.6t) and the two new Manitou telehandlers are both model MT625 which can lift 2.5t to 6 metres.

Commenting as the final batch of Kubota KX016-4 were delivered Martin Livermore, Operations Manager, commented, “Our unique ethos is to provide all our customers hire needs as a ‘one-stop shop’ and so we stock the complete range of tools and machinery. When it comes to plant, we only supply the latest market leading equipment which is why, despite all the uncertainties surrounding the pandemic, we have invested heavily in Kubota and Manitou machines. Boss Plant Sales did an excellent job keeping to the delivery schedule we had agreed despite the added pressures of working to Covid-19 health and safety procedures. All the new machines are out at work which proves we were right to press ahead with our investment plans when many just battened down the hatches!”

A new reversible dumper, the DR601AHG, has a 6-tonne payload and comfortable hydrostatic transmission.

Thanks to its innovative reversible design the seat can rotate and all components are instantly adjusted to suit the driver’s new position including the steering wheel, joystick, pedals, safety cameras, etc. The driver can also conveniently and safely get on and off both sides of the dumper, so speed and flexibility are significantly increased.
​

In terms of technology, various systems have been included to make it a more efficient dumper, it has an ECO Mode function, where the engine speed is automatically controlled to ensure lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

The DR601AHG is fitted with the Hill Holder system, a start-assist and safety system that engages the dumper’s brake when you take your foot off the accelerator at zero speed. This significantly increases safety, especially when operating on slopes.
​
It can also be equipped with Smart Stop, a plug-in system that automatically shuts down the engine when it is not in use and the optimal time and safety requirements are met.
​
The new DR601AHG dumper is fitted with a powerful and efficient 55.4 kW Deutz engine which complies with the strict Stage V emissions standards and it has an engine torque of 340@1500.

The new D300AHG is an articulated dumper with a 3-tonne payload, a side-tipping skip and hydrostatic transmission.

One of the main strengths of this model is that its design is based on the 4.5-tonne dumper with the same chassis, hydrostatic transmission, and engine cooling. All installed on a dumper with a lower payload to achieve outstanding reliability and durability.
​

Equipped with an efficient 18.5 kW four-cylinder Kubota engine which complies with the Stage V standards and has an engine torque of 92.6@1700.

The skip’s shape ensures maximum frontal visibility and it can optionally be fitted with our Full Visibility System, consisting of cameras and proximity sensors.
​
These unique Ausa features make it the most efficient and safest 3-tonne dumper available on the market.

The Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, will today confirm that he is going to ensure that the UK’s construction industry will drive the nation’s economic recovery as things return to ‘normal’ following the Covid-19 lockdown.

Boris Johnson likened his government’s plan to US president Franklin D Roosevelt’s New Deal programme in the 1930, which used public works construction to get America over the great depression of the 1920s.

In a speech today in the West Midlands, the prime minister will speak of his commitment to ‘build, build, build’ to fuel economic recovery across the UK.

In extracts released by Downing Street ahead of the event, he is quoted as saying: “It sounds positively Rooseveltian. It sounds like a New Deal. All I can say is that if so, then that is how it is meant to sound and to be, because that is what the times demand. A government that is powerful and determined and that puts its arms around people at a time of crisis. This is a government that is wholly committed not just to defeating coronavirus but to using this crisis finally to tackle this country’s great unresolved challenges of the last three decades. “To build the homes, to fix the NHS, to tackle the skills crisis, to mend the indefensible gap in opportunity and productivity and connectivity between the regions of the UK. To unite and level up. To that end we will build, build, build. Build back better, build back greener, build back faster and to do that at the pace that this moment requires.”
​
The prime minister will say that £5bn of capital investment projects is being brought forward in England, including:
• £1.5bn this year for hospital maintenance and expansion
• £100m this year for 29 projects in the road network, plus £10m for development work to unblock the Manchester rail bottleneck, which will begin this year

New Dash-5 Kubota’s Look a Class Act
​
“We were due to witness the European launch of these new Kubota mini excavators at an event in Spain earlier this year, sadly the spectre of the Covid-19 virus put paid to that idea, as such I have not seen one in the metal as yet, but I must say, I’m looking forward to it as they do look very nice indeed!”

Construction Plant News investigates how Manitou’s rotary telehandlers are transforming UK construction sites.
The telehandler is a standard piece of equipment for any building site, and it is difficult to imagine a site operating without one. However, in recent years, a new type of telehandler has become commonplace on many construction sites. This new, rotary-telehandler offers significantly more features and modes of use, often resulting in reduced need for specialist machines, such as the mobile crane. Is the rotary telehandler machine becoming as indispensable as the standard telehandler? Manitou claim to be the UK market leader in rotary telehandlers. Construction Plant News spoke to Mark Ormond, Managing Director of Manitou UK, to find why how customers are benefiting from these machines.
“The main reason customers purchase an MRT (Manitou Rotary Telehandler) is because of its flexibility. This one machine can move pallets around a site, be fitted with a jib or winch and used as a crane or operate as an access platform. That flexibility has the potential to save users an enormous amount of time and money”. Manitou MRTs range from 14 – 32m lift height with lift capacities of up to 7,000kg. Four-wheel steer, 360-degree rotation, and the option of a remote control enable the machines to work in a wide range of situations. There are a wide range of attachments and, to ensure safe operation at all times, an attachment recognition system will automatically adjust the load capacity of the base machine to the characteristics of the attachment being used. This ensures the operator can never accidentally overload the machine due to the attachment being used.
