Hi,
I am at a verge of :stirthepot setting up my stockpiling outfit for sand and gravel and would definitely require, amongst other things, the services of and excavator, wheel loader and dump trucks.
I intend to make a small start-up then expand gradually. I will start with just a loader and probably hire a couple of 20tons dump trucks locally.
:IMO From my preliminary calculations using a wet factor of 2.08, I have about 78,000Metric tons of sand to pack and stock pile 15Km away from the river. From my 3 years research, this exercise will be done when the river bank is completely dry and accessible to the proposed heavy equipment.
:Banghead My main challenge is to be able to identify a suitable wheel loader (in terms of type, model, capacity and lists of often replaceable parts) that I can purchase to fit my current requirement:confused:?
I am bias on CAT products :salute for obvious reasons as availability of service/maintenance experts and spare parts.
Can someone :professor please offer a word or two on the above challenge?
Many thanks :thumbsup
