AJK Plant Hire from Northwich in Cheshire have just added a pair of new Hydrema 922D Dumptrucks to their rental fleet.
Weighing in at 15t and with a payload of 20 t, AJK have specified their machines with the low flotation 800mm tyres and hydraulic tailgate. When fitted with the LGP tyres the Dumptrucks have a ground bearing pressure when fully loaded of only 11.9 psi.
The 922D comes with hydraulic front suspension and an air seat for excellent driver comfort and can tip a full load in under 7 seconds for ultra quick working cycles.
AJK specialise in low ground pressure machines and Debbie Trickett the Business Development Manager says “The 922D`s will be very busy during the next few months on Environmental Improvement projects where the ground pressure is a major consideration.
Our customers have been very impressed with the capabilities of the 922D’s predecessor, the 922C, and we have no doubt that the 922D will exceed all expectations.
As Low Ground Pressure specialists it is vital that all our machines offer minimal ground disturbance when working in fragile environments.
Thanks to the 922’s unique rear bogie axle configuration the machine is able to ride over wet terrain rather than struggle through it, which in turn offers fuel savings as well as minimal site damage.
We are keen to promote the concept of Low Ground Pressure and its environmental and commercial advantages and the Hydrema 922D is definitely the way forward”.
