New Grader

[LandyAndy]

Time for a new grader
My old grader,the Volvo G930 is getting pensioned off,coming up to 8000hours.
My CAT 12M becomes the maintence grader,its just done 2600hours.I get a new one.Wanting another CAT,the new ones have more grunt and a few other improvements.
Loverley machine to operate.

Have you worn that one out already Andy?.

[LandyAndy]

No,mine still looks like brand new.The Westrac mechanics always commend me on the way I keep it when they sevice it,tell me its one of the cleanest they see.
We keep the new grader for construction work,Im the construction grader steerer.The replaced grader then goes to maintence grading.The maintence grader gets traded.

So if the engines are working at the same revs as a truck engine doing about 100km/h, the Volvo would have done about 800,000 km and the CAT a mere 260,000 km.

Ill have to say the M series are awesome love the 24M over the 24H soo much better!!

So does the new one have a reversing camera or similar, to make sure that (just picking something at random here) no fences leap out behind you?

Are the John Deere graders imported to Australia?
They were very popular OS.

You could probably get a good deal on a Chinese made grader Andrew.

How did the Volvo go compared to the CAT ?
Dare i say if its not a Cat it's a Dog

Here we run Volvo Tippers and Cat Earth Moving, seems a good combination.
