Cool Fact:

I am the Vermont State Champion Demolition Derby Driver!

Ryan Rosploch fabricated a new demo shield for the 305.5 Cat Excavator in preparation for the upcoming Moran Plant demolition in Burlington VT.

Ryan and crew did an excellent job designing and building a shield that wasn’t available.

When done safely, trenching operations can reduce our exposure to cave-ins, falling loads, hazardous atmospheres, and hazards from mobile equipment.

Everyone working on trenching/excavation jobsites should be familiar with trenching safety practices.

The lack of timely lubrication or an improperly adjusted undercarriage can reduce the operational life of the undercarriage components by 10 to 15 percent, causing increased unscheduled downtime and increased undercarriage cost. A loss of 15% life on a D6K undercarriage would cost us $5,250.
