along with a duel-filtration system. We recommend having
a spare filter on hand along with fuel additives to reduce the
amount of water in the fuel.”
Preventing lost time
To help prevent lost time on projects, Patterson says a second
piece of equipment would be wishful thinking, but not necessarily
a fiscally responsible decision.
“Instead of having a backup piece of equipment, just bring
in quality equipment!” he said. “A properly trained operator
with a decent inventory of spare parts can easily keep the
Junttan working through most conditions.”
Sandberg says lost time can be prevented by properly
planning the project, having the recommended parts on site
and scheduling sufficient time for inspections and maintenance
on the equipment. Liebherr Canada supports the
customers with complete maintenance and repair programs,
which include inspections and complete service and parts
supplied and installed on site at regular intervals. This provides
the customers with a complete and worry-free solution,
maximizing uptime and performance of the equipment over
its full lifetime.
“Working directly with the manufacturer allows direct
access to our research and development teams that are continually
striving to enhance and improve products operating
in extreme environments across the globe,” said Sandberg.
“For major projects, the selection of the appropriate machinery
is essential and we will assist with application reviews to
ensure the right machines are deployed.”
Grindle adds that with the right planning, anything can
be possible.
“Usually the biggest obstacle of transporting is not so
much the isolation of the site, but the road bans. It can take
a lot of permits and road diversions to get large equipment
to the target location. And – as far as a challenge to get to
isolated job sites – well, everything is achievable if you make
a plan.”
