Redesigned Demolition Jaw: Box-Shaped Bites The CC3300 Hydraulic CombiCutter now is available with a box-shaped jaw that shears materials into shapes better suited for crusher plants; by cutting materials on three sides, the CC3300 prevents long pieces of rebar from slowing down the separation of recycled materials. The jaw allows higher-grade materials to be recycled, reducing the overall dust levels at a jobsite. Atlas Copco Construction Tools; 413-746-0020; www.atlascopco.com
