Worx
Reciprocating saws perform easily
through labour-intensive applications
and can cut just about anything. Worx
has released its 20V Max Lithium-ion
Reciprocating Saw WX508.9 to join its
ever expanding Powershare Range.
Working with multiple materials and
applications can be a drag but with a no-
load speed of 2,900rpm and a pendulum
function, you will benefit from improved
cutting efficiency when sawing through
wood, PVC pipe, and steel materials.
The saw is simpler thanks to the tool-
less blade change system, time will be
efficiently spent on the jobs that matter.
Makinex
When Makinex designed and
produced the Powered Hand Truck
in 2012, its success was a given
because it solved a problem that was
consistently occurring within the
rental industry.
The ability to pick up small plant
machinery, generators, plate
compactors and compressors and
single handedly load them into a
variety of vehicles without putting
strain on the operator’s back is of
utmost importance within the rental
industry.
Kennards Hire has seen firsthand
how popular the Makinex Powered
Hand Truck is, resulting in an
measured improvement in staff safety.
The Powered Hand Truck is a quick
and easy alternative to using a
forklift or tailgate loader , and can
be used anywhere: workshops,
warehouses, factories, depots and
hire and rental yards.
Hilti
Hilti’s Fleet Management scheme
allows contractors to lease tools
rather than purchase them outright.
The only tool manufacturer that offers
its customers the option to use its
tools in such a way, Fleet Management
is already drawing praise from
numerous sections of the construction
industry.
Traditionally speaking, most
contractors only think of tools in
terms of the initial price rather than
the long-term costs associated with
tool ownership. This is an unfortunate
mistake – not least because of the
various ‘hidden’ costs that inevitably
attach themselves to tool ownership.
Instead of inopportune secondary
issues, tradespeople can now dedicate
all of their attention to the most
important task at hand: the build.
