Karl’s big order signed, sealed & delivered
Karl's big order signed, sealed & delivered
By Lance Bassett
No wonder Karl Gerard (left) from Pinnacle Power Equipment looks a happy man; it's not every day he nets a shipping order like this.
The Eliet Super Pro 2000 chipper/shredder with accompanying conveyor and even the trailer they stand on is being delivered to Handys Garden Machinery in Swindon, before being installed to a major national contractor in the midlands.
If that wasn't enough, to accompany the shipment is a Billy Goat model HTR1602V Truck Loader, so the customer has the total Pinnacle Power ability to transport the machines to site to chip/shred the material and then load it on the awaiting transport.
Accepting the machinery is Trevor Cozens -Thompson from Handys. Trevor said, "Our customer wanted the most reliable and efficient system for his work on behalf of a public authority, so naturally he bought Billy Goat."
The Eliet Super Pro Chipper/Shredder is powered by an 18hp Briggs & Stratton engine with a 10cm chipping capacity.
The Billy Goat HTR1602V Truck Loader is powered by a 16hp Briggs & Stratton Vanguard engine and is supplied complete with a 10in x 11ft hose.
