Hire company Hawk Plant has purchased three new jcb 3cx for sale and ten Loadall jcb telehandlers from JCB dealer Gunn JCB. The plant firm also bought 12 Dualock quick-hitches from JCB for its recently purchased JS220 tracked excavators.The new purchases add to the growing list of big orders from plat firms since the beginning of the year, signalling the long overdue recovery of the construction industry. The Dualock quick-hitches from JCB represent a leap forward in design and safety for coupling attachments to excavators and other construction equipment.
The Dualock is a double locking quick-hitch developed by JCB Attachments with independent locking of the front and rear pins. Designed for use with JCB tracked excavators from the JS130 through to the JS460, the hitch is compatible with both genuine JCB buckets and JCB scoop buckets on jcb 3cx for sale, along with the full range of JCB powered attachments. It uses the blocking bar system from the BUG coupler to secure the rear pin lock.
In addition, a new mechanical front lock secures the front pin independently of the rear. The face of the front locking mechanism is painted red and can easily be seen from the cab, ensuring the operator can be confident that the bucket is securely fastened before operating the machine. A series of on screen checks via the JCB JS Auto excavator Advanced Management System further ensures it is secured.
Hawk Plant director Paul Allman said: “Driven by a commitment to provide our customers with the safest equipment available, we are replacing our quick-hitches across the fleet. Customers must be totally confident in the equipment that they are operating. We are now providing them with levels of safety well in excess of those required by current standards.
“They are starting to demand dual-locking hitches whenever they hire excavators and we have every faith these new units will deliver. To date they have worked effectively with no issues whatsoever.”
Founded in 1972, Hawk Plant specialises in large bulk earthworks equipment and has a fleet of more than 1500 items.
