K-Tec's 1228ADT 28-cubic yard scrapers can now be mounted onto Articu-
lated Dump Trucks (ADTs), as well as construction and agricultural tractors. The
1228ADT can be pulled by a 25 or 30-ton ADT, and can either be push-loaded
or top loaded via excavator for heaped hauling. Guided by a digital display
screen, operators can control the scraper with joystick controls. The screen also
tracks load count productivity and allows for easier on-site troubleshooting.
With the ADT as the prime mover, the scraper can travel up to 30 mph down
haul roads, helping to reduce cycle times. The ADT unit has a sharper turning
radius – up to 90 degrees – allowing better maneuverability on small jobsites.

ATLAS COPCO LIGHT
TOWER HAS UP TO
140 HOUR RUN TIME
The LED HiLight V5+ light tower from Atlas
Copco is designed to minimize operational costs
and maximize light output time. The LED fl oodlights
are rated for 10,000 hours of use, and are engi-
neered to withstand jobsite abuse, including vibra-
tion and harsh work environments. The light tower
houses a retractable vertical mast, which uses a
3,500-pound winch to raise the canopy up to 25
feet, without having to rely on horizontal hoist-
ing (which increases setup time). The HiLite V5+
produces as much as 440,000 lumens using a Tier
4 Final Kubota diesel engine powering a 3-kilowatt
generator, enabling up to 140 hours of run time
before refueling.
