London Demolition opts for JCB 300XD
London Demolition has bought its first JCB in the form of a 330XD
(Xtra Duty) tracked excavator with breaker and bucket attachments.
The machine has a chassis-mounted falling objects protection
system, heavy-duty guards for the track motors and turret,
strengthened dipper, reinforced linkage, plus upper structure and
counterweight buffers.
Before expanding its fleet, London Demolition looked at a number of
competitor machines. Contracts director Daniel Green-ham said the
company chose JCB because of its attitude and approach and the way
it looked after new customers.
He said the machine is performing well. "It has a job to do and it
does it as well, if not better that any other I've seen. The whole
support and service package is brilliant, both from JCB and from
our local dealer Greenshields.
"At the moment we do not have JCBs, but we intend to buy more in
the future and we are giving some serious thought to new robot skid
steers from the same source," said Greenham.
