TRACK & WHEEL Recent truck deliveries Reefton Hire Ltd – Scania R620 Reefton Hire Ltd’s new R620 is used to cart gold concentrate. This concentrate is sent down from Reefton to Palmerston by rail, unloaded and then reloaded onto the Scania and taken to Macraes Mine processing plant, seven times a day. John Collins and Marty Lynch are impressed with the comfort, quietness, retarder and fuel economy of their new Scania. The other more impressive feature is the hp of the 620, they can’t believe how well the Scania powers up the Macraes hill and with the new two-pedal opticruise it makes the hill so effortless. 52 CablePrice
TRACK & WHEEL Kevin (KJ) and Tracey Murray – Scania R580 Kevin (KJ) and Tracey Murray have taken delivery of their third Scania. The new big 8x4 Swede has 580hp with Opticruise transmission and sleeper cab. The truck logging gear was supplied by Patchell’s, and the sign writing and art work was done by Chris Simpson (Simpson Signs Whangarei). The new unit will work the Northland area. Hyslop Blair Transport – Scania G480 Tom Hyslop of the Mosgiel-based logging contract carrier, Hyslop Blair Transport (HBT), recently took delivery of what is believed to be the first Scania into logging in the Otago region. Among a number of firsts, the Scania G480hp 8x4 is also the first new Scania into Tom’s fleet. It was selected due to its true logging specification and in order to take advantage of the new tare-weight laws, says regular driver Chris Wylie. The 8x4 meets requirement for 53-tonne legislation, with a 22m permit. Fully log speced, the G480 CB 8x4 MSZ includes hub reduction, six-rod steel suspension, a manual GRS0905R gearbox, and a 480hp Euro 5 engine, as well as a factory cab and chassis paint job. Following early drives, Chris says he finds the retarder particularly effective in the harsh logging application, even in the snow. He also appreciates the comfort of the cab, saying there’s ample room and the ergonomics of the cab are exceptional. Chris also commented to CablePrice’s Southland Scania sales representative, shortly after the truck’s delivery, that two air dams midway down the cab do a fantastic job of aerodynamically pushing the air down when driving, preventing spray from splattering the windows and mirrors and maintaining good downward force for exceptional ride stability. From a visibility and overall safety point of view, Chris says this is marvellous. The Scania G480 carts logs throughout the Otago region to the port and local sawmills. HydroTech Drainage – Scania R480 Auckland-based HydroTech Drainage is the country’s largest drainage maintenance company. It has recently added a specialist Scania R480 “mobile recycling unit” to its fleet to help the company to service drains, sludge ponds and sewerage systems using advanced technology. The 480hp Scania features a fiveaxle configuration with rear-steering axle providing exceptional turning circles. The body features dewatering plant capable of sucking up the product and separating the solids from the water. It’s used for septic tanks, grease traps, food processing by-products, pond desludging and removing sludge from commercial wastewater plant. The Scania’s system is so efficient that it can do the jobs previously carried out by three trucks! The bodies are built in Denmark by J.Hvidtved Larsen A/S. Inter-Freight Ltd – Scania R470 Inter-Freight has added another Scania to its ever increasing fleet. This Scania R470 LA 6x4 MNA was put to work in June, pulling a five-axle B-train between Auckland and Wellington. George Thompson – Scania R580 George and Dorothy put this well presented 580hp Scania, contracted to Mainfreight, on the road pulling a flat deck six-axle B-train throughout New Zealand. George opted for the Opticruise transmission this time around and says he made the right choice. This truck is on a Max24 service contract with CablePrice. Extras include CB radio, Scania Chrome badges, Xenon headlamps, air horns and more. CablePrice 53
