EquipmentWorld.com | February 2016 15 marketplace | by Lucas Stewart | LucasStewart@randallreilly.com 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. 1228ADT Scraper can now be mounted on 25- to 30-ton haulers EDITOR'S PICK EDITOR'S PICK 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.
