A View of the park at shift break, the bigger one's use compressed air starting to get them running.

fatusbloke:
But if you want heavy liftting you want one of these, this one with non-powered trailer -  which mates direct to the back as all the bogie unit's can turn and steer - Carries 350 ton another on site tips the scales at 400 ton and a new one on order has 550 ton capacity

deranged rover:
The CAT 797's take some abuse too. I was in Alberta, Canada earlier this year and a local (40-45 sq miles in size) quarry had a load of them running on 10 min cycles. 10 mins from loading to tipping and return etc with an emphasis on 15000 tonnes per shift per vehicle (for bonus $$). At around 300 tonnes per load the O&K RH400 excav only needed 4 draws to fill it. The sight of 20 of these 797's racing home at the shift end  :shock:  the dust cloud blew for miles and it felt like an earthquake too! As for specs, if a shock absorber fell on your landy, you wouldn't have to worry about ground clearance anymore and with just short of 7000 litre fuel tanks, well lets just say if they bought their fuel at Tesco's they could supply enough free computers to do the whole country's schools!
