SOME KEY EQUIPMENT AND MACHINERY INVOLVED
4. BOBCAT
Bobcat
Sometimes, small things matter in a big way. The same happened with this stylish small
baby poclain. To the surprise of everyone, this machine arrived on site in the last 2 days
and in-fact literally forced all the equipment and machinery lovers to ride it once. This
small yet powerful combination of bucket and drag cleaning attachment got the most
attention.
This crawler type small power-pack, came to site when cleaning of the road surface and
small trenching for signal cables was most urgent. This machine almost ran continuously
for 36 hours with few small operator breaks
This totally mechanized equipment
had a lever control for back and
forward movement. The front boom
stick is also controlled by a separate
level and for night time working, a
small light is attached to the front.
Bobcat diminishes the manual labour
for sweeping and cleaning and clears
the last layer of dust in a matter of
few minutes. Its boom is strong
enough to tackle the road material.
Some other backup equipment which
arrived at site for this demolition
work was diamond slab cutter which
was actually not utilized at site.
