Heavy-Duty Bucket: Loader Attachment
Deere’s 90-in. severe-duty construction bucket is designed to fit its 332G skid-steer loader or 333G compact track loader. The bucket has a serrated edge that can roughly cut a graded surface, loosen packed materials or break through frozen ground. The reverse side of the bucket is smooth and can be used for basic finish grading and back-dragging. Deere Construction & Forestry Division; www.deere.com
Asphalt Paver: Tight Turning Radius
The RP-170e highway-class asphalt paver has a 6-ft, 4-in. wheelbase with a 11.5-ton capacity. The rubber-tire paver has a turning radius of 30 in. and can maneuver around obstacles, such as storm drains and highway barriers. The hopper sports 16-in. augers that are designed to reduce material segregation. Dual operating stations swing out beyond the sides of the machine to allow for better operator sight lines.

Drill-Casing Handler: Safer Practices
The HCC-10 hydraulic-casing safety handler fits to a standard boom of an 8-ton excavator and allows for drill pipes and casings to be added to the drill string without requiring workers to carry them. The handler can grasp a segment of drill pipe and casing from a rack and properly position it, vertically or horizontally, over the drill rig to be threaded onto the drill string. This reduces the chance of worker injury due to hand-turning the drill string while adding piping and casing. TEI Rock Drills; www.teirockdrills.com
