Available in a range of models and cutter head styles to fi t any excavator, the cutter heads are also suitable for soil remediation, scaling and tunneling. www.antraquip.net MAKE QUICK WORK OF PATCHWORK JOBS Simplify full-depth repair jobs with Minnich Manufacturing's line of machine-mounted drills, available for excavators, backhoes and skid steers. Designed for patchwork jobs that have a long distance between the areas to be drilled, the dowel pin drills are available in both hydraulic and pneumatic options. Powered by a compressor, the drills are mounted to the counter weight of the carrier machine or the bucket of a backhoe. The drills are available in sizes ranging from a 1,250-pound pneumatic two-drill unit to a 2,125-pound hydraulic six-drill unit. www.minnich-mfg.com COUPLER FEATURES FEWER MOVING PARTS Wedgelock's excavator couplers are available in both hydraulic and mechanical models, and provide the ability to quickly and easily change attachments. Both models feature the company's Wedge Locking Principle, which delivers a wedging effect that keeps the coupler-to-attachment connection tight, eliminating move- ment and minimizing wear. Both models are easy to install. www.wedgelockna.com LOW HASSLE, LOW COST ALTERNATIVE TO HYDRAULIC COUPLERS Change attachments without having to hammer out and change the pin with the Manual Multi-Grab Quick Coupler from TRK. An adjustable screw mechanism allows the operator to grab multiple pin centers, and the difference in speed when changing attachments is minimal when compared to a hydraulic coupler. With no plumbing or hydraulic maintenance, initial and ongoing costs are lower. www.trkattach.ca HYDRAULIC BREAKER MAXIMIZES EFFICIENCY Bobcat's hydraulic breaker attachment, which quickly mounts to the carrier machine via the Bob-Tach and X-Change mounting systems, delivers maximum effi ciency by matching the hydraulic capacity of the carrier to the breaker, allowing consistent machine-to-breaker per- formance. Suitable for a range of demolition jobs, the breaker is available in models ranging from 60- to 1,000 foot-pound impact energy classes. www.bobcat.com
