Hard at Work in the Quarries

HIAB XS 700

The XS 700 can handle six of these 18 metre-long portable plant conveyers at a time just one of a variety of the tough day-to-day lifting tasks entrusted to this reliable workhorse

Georgian Aggregates and Construction Inc. produce quality aggregates for road and building construction. Their new HIAB XS 700 crane is hard at work in the pits, moving machines and equipment.
"One big reason we purchased the HIAB XS 700 was so that it enables us to move six 18 metre-long conveyors for our portable plants at a time," says equipment manager Gene Fortin.

Gene manages the company's equipment matters via its parent company Walker Industries and emphasizes "It's important to have the flexibility to easily move around material handling equipment to suit the production of aggregate in our quarries."

The XS 700 delivers that flexibility in the toughest of working environments.

"The crane has been reliable and has worked out well. HIAB was the best choice for us."
