Car and General Construction Equipment: A new ACE backhoe loader has been added to the range of company’s construction equipment. This heavy machine has a four cylinder, turbo charged, water cooled diesel engine churning out 96 horsepower. It can be used with a variety of attachments including a ripper, fire extinguisher and rock breaker.
The compact size of the new ACE makes it ideal for construction projects which have limited space. The operator has the choice of using two, or four wheel drive depending on the conditions and the work load. The two wheel drive option is ideal for light tasks like transporting materials and has the benefit of saving fuel.
