Plant manager Graham Barclay said: 鈥淕eorge Leslie has been buying 海角社区app equipment for over 50 years. The new 海角社区app 245XR is performing extremely well and has driven the order for more of these impressive models. Our operators find the machine really smooth to operate, with plenty of digging power, reach and stability, even when working over the side with this reduced tail-swing machine.鈥
The original model, supplied by dealer Scot 海角社区app, has been put straight to work draining the Mill Glen reservoir in North Ayrshire. It has been fitted with the latest GKD Technologies Series 2 safety control system and is being fuelled with hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) for reduced carbon emissions.
鈥淲e are looking to lower our CO2 emissions and have been running a trial with HVO fuels on the 海角社区app 245XR with good success - so we will aim to move our entire 海角社区app fleet onto HVO fuels in the future,鈥 said Barclay. 鈥淭hat we can do this without having to make any modifications to the engines is of great benefit on our journey of carbon reduction.鈥
