The National Commis-sion for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) recently made available a new CCO certification program for service truck crane operators. Service truck cranes are widely used for propane delivery, mining, and heavy equip-ment assembly, repair, and service, as well as by lo-cal municipalities’ service workers. Although relative-ly small, these cranes are still engaged in lifting op-erations covered by OSHA 1926 Subpart CC, which re-quires operators to be certi-fied or qualified if they are involved with material de-livery at construction sites.

The service truck crane industry – including manu-facturers, users, dealers, trainers, and labour – re-quested that NCCCO de-velop the new program tai-lored to the unique needs of service truck crane op-erators. Representatives from these industry sec-

tors, as well as members of NCCCO’s Written Exam and Practical Exam Man-agement Committees, de-veloped the new program over the last nine months.

“I am very pleased with the finished product,” said Tim Worman, Product Manager for Commercial Vehicles at Iowa Mold Tooling Co. Inc. (IMT), Garner, Iowa, and a lead-ing proponent of the new program who also partici-pated on the Service Truck Crane Work Group. “The written and practical ex-ams are challenging but appropriate for the level of knowledge and skill opera-tors need to safely do their work. Our industry will be better off with this new tool for assessing opera-tors’ abilities.”

A restricted ver-sion of the CCO Mobile Crane Operator Tele-scopic Boom – Fixed Cab (TSS) certification, the new certification has the

designation “TSS-STC.” Certification require-ments include passing a single written exam and a practical exam simi-lar to the TSS exam but modified to accommo-date the smaller service truck cranes as well as the use of remote or pen-dant controls. Operators already holding CCO TSS certification do not need the TSS-STC certification to operate service truck cranes, but those holding the new TSS-STC certi-fication are restricted to operating service truck cranes only.

“This industry sup-port and subject matter expertise, as well as psy-chometric guidance from NCCCO and International Assessment Institute, were all key in developing this new program,” said NCC-CO Manager, Program Development and Admin-istration, Joel Oliva. “This multi-faceted approach en-

nccco launches crane operator certification program

sures that the tests are (and remain) fair, valid, reliable, and legally defensible.” As with its existing programs, NCCCO conducted a pro-fessional job task analysis to serve as the foundation for exam development.

Service truck cranes are identified by their telescop-ic booms, where the base and mast structure is not integral to the stabilizer/outrigger system. Lifting is typically accomplished via a winch (electric or hydrau-lic) and its functions (rota-tion, elevation, telescop-ing) are either powered or manual. These machines tend to have relatively shorter boom lengths (10–35 ft.) and lower capacities (1–7 tons) as compared to

other Telescopic Boom – Fixed Cab machines (e.g., boom trucks, carry deck cranes). Additionally, op-erations are usually con-ducted by the use of radio remote or pendant controls with the operator standing on the ground following the load.

In addition to IMT, oth-er manufacturers of service truck cranes, including Liftmoore Inc. (Houston, Texas), Maintainer (Shel-don, Iowa), Palfinger North America Group (Council Bluffs, Iowa), Tiger Cranes (Sioux Center, Iowa), and Venco/Venturo (Cincin-nati, Ohio), as well as sub-ject matter experts from the service truck crane user community, participated

on the 17-member Service Truck Crane Work Group.

“The new TSS-STC cer-tification program promis-es to bring the same safety, insurance, and risk reduc-tion benefits that NCCCO’s other certification pro-grams have demonstrably delivered since 1996,” said Oliva. “We anticipate this new program being highly popular among users of these cranes keen to pro-tect their employees and manage the risks inherent in any lifting activity.”

Information about TSS-STC certification—includ-ing candidate handbooks, exam applications, and ref-erences—is available from at www.nccco.org/certifi-cation/STC.html. b

Len Shipeley, Ontario District Manager - SKF Lubrication Systems; “Over the last 35 years, FLO Components has and continues to set the standard for what a Lu-brication System House should be. We look forward to seeing this same level of profes-sionalism, commitment and expertise applied to the SKF Brand Lubrica-tion Products platform. Effective May 1st 2013, SKF Lubrication Solu-tions restructured its frontline operations and appointed FLO Compo-nents Ltd. as their full service & support part-ner for Ontario. FLO is now stocking a full inventory of SKF lube product. Over the short-

term, the current SKF Technical & Engineering support team will work alongside FLO to en-sure the transition is as seamless as possible.”

“In fact,” added Mr. Chris Deckert, President of FLO Components, “FLO is pleased to an-nounce it has hired an Installation Technician from SKF to join its cur-rent service and installa-tion team.”

Commenting on its new role, Deckert said; “FLO Components has been ‘Meeting Custom-ers’ Needs Better’ as lube solutions experts and trusted lubrication advisors with the LIN-COLN brand of equip-ment and solutions since 1977. We look for-ward to providing the

SKF brand customer, with the same excep-tional service and sup-port our Lincoln brand customers have come to expect.

Deckert offers some background on how FLO obtained its new status; “The collective efforts of FLO staff has been recognized by SKF LBU management. FLO’s su-perior performance and on-going commitment as a team in building the LINCOLN brand over the long-term created this new opportunity for us. Since 1999, we have won five Outstanding Distributor Awards and were recognized in 2010 by then LINCOLN as an important part of their success over 100 years of

Globally, the largest for-est wildfire in recent

history was the Black Drag-on Fire in China, which broke out in May 1987 along the Amur River, the boundary between eastern Siberia and Chinese Man-churia. This fire burned approximately 18 million acres (72,843 sq km) of pristine conifer forest - an area almost one and one half times that of the prov-

inces of Prince Edward Is-land, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick combined. The worst of this conflagration took place between the evening hours of May 7 and the early morning hours of May 8, when it took most of its victims: more than 200 dead and 250 burned and injured.

The single worst wild-fire in U.S. history, in both size and fatalities, was

the Great Peshtigo Fire in northern Wisconsin and the upper peninsula of Michi-gan that burned 3.8 million acres (15,378 sq km) and killed at least 1,500 during the week of October 8-14, 1871. After a hot, dry sum-mer, strong warm autumn winds fanned the fires out of control. Fire tornadoes were reported at several locations, and the fire be-came so hot that people taking refuge in rivers were boiled to death. Unattend-ed fires at logging camps in the area are believed to have caused the fire.

In October 1918, the massive Cloquet Fire in northern Minnesota is be-lieved to have been caused by sparks from the local railroad. This forest wild-fire was one of the worst natural disasters in U.S. his-tory in terms of the number of lives lost in a single day. In total, 453 lives were lost and 52,000 people were in-jured or displaced, 38 com-munities were destroyed, 250,000 acres (1,000 sq km) were burned, and 73

million dollars in property damage was suffered.

Here in Canada, the Great Miramichi Fire in October 1825, devastated forests and communities through-out much of northern New Brunswick. It blackened al-most 4 million acres (16,000 sq km) and ranks amongst the three largest forest fires ever recorded in North America. As this fire raged out of control it destroyed about one third of the homes in Fredericton, but the main devastation took place about 160 kilometers to the north-east.

On the evening of Octo-ber 7, 1825, the firestorm roared through Newcastle, now part of the City of Mi-ramichi, and in less than three hours reduced the town to ruins. To escape the blaze, many residents took refuge with livestock and wildlife in the Mi-ramichi River. The loss of human life in and around Newcastle alone reached 160 and included all pris-oners in the local jail. Elsewhere, the totals were

likely higher, given the number of lumbermen in the forests at the time. The cause of the blaze is not known, but was likely the result of human activity.

Ontario is more than one million square kilometres in size, of which 85 percent is covered by a variety of forest types. Wildfires have always been, and will continue to be, a real threat to the forest and its human and animal inhabitants.

The province has seen a number of destructive wild-fires over the years. In 1910, a forest fire in the Baudette-Rainy River area killed 42 people and scorched over 308,000 acres (1,250 sq km). The next year, the infamous Porcupine fire, one of the largest in Ontario’s history, burned almost 500,000 acres (2,023 sq km), including the towns of Timmins, South Porcupine and Cochrane. The estimated death toll was 73. In 1916, a fire in the Matheson area burned the villages of Kelso, Val Gagne, Porquis Junction and Iro-quois Falls, taking 244 lives. The Haileybury fire in 1922 killed 43 and destroyed 6,000 homes. (Source: On-tario Ministry of Natural Re-sources).

In recent history, and seared into our memories, are the 2011 Flat Top Com-plex Wildfire in Alberta and the 2003 Okanagan Mountain Park in British Columbia. The Okana-gan Mountain Park Fire was caused by a light-ning strike. Before it was controlled, it burned over 63,258 acres (256 sq km), destroyed or damaged 238 homes, caused the evacua-

tion of over 33,000 people and wiped out 12 historic wooden railway trestles in Myra Canyon. Souse: BC Wildfire Management

Three simultaneous wildfires, which became known as The Flat Top Complex Wildfire, com-bined and destroyed over 500 residences and com-mercial buildings in and around Slave Lake and re-sulted in the evacuation of almost 15,000 people. Un-like the Okanagan Moun-tain Park fire, this fire is be-lieved to have been human caused. (Source: Alberta Ministry of Environment).

The most common cause of wildfires varies throughout the world. In Canada and northwest Chi-na, lightning is the major source of ignition. In the United States, the source of wildfires can be traced to both lightning strikes and human activities. In other parts of the world, human involvement is a major contributor.

Wildfires present a challenge for forest man-agement because they have the potential to be at once harmful and ben-eficial. On the one hand, wildfires can threaten communities and destroy vast amounts of timber re-sources, resulting in costly losses. On the other hand, these fires are a natural part of the forest eco-system and important in many parts of Canada for maintaining the health and diversity of the forest. bCopyright REMco Rock En-gineered Machinery Com-pany 2013.

FACTS ABOUT WILDFIRES IN CANADA

Canada has about 10% of the world’s forests. Each year over the last 25 years, about 8300 for-est fires have occurred. The total area burned var-ies widely from year to year, but averages about 5.6 million acres annually.

Only 3% of all wildfires that start each year in Can-ada grow to more than 500 acres in area. How-ever, these fires account for 97% of the total area burned across the country.

Fire suppression costs over the last decade in Canada have ranged from about $500 million to $1 billion a year (Source: Natural Resources Canada).

A wildfire is one of the most powerful forces in na-ture, as anyone who has watched its frightening fury can attest. Be careful working or playing in or near the forest or dry grasslands and be sure to report wildfires to the local authorities.

Front Page Story

Wildfire!Every year, countries, territories, states and provinces around the globe spend billions of dollars in forest wildfire prevention, management, control and extinguishment. This cost is second only to the loss in value of marketable timber as well as public and private property to say nothing of the loss of human life... to which a value cannot be placed.

NB Power recently cel-ebrated Clean Air Day by unveiling an electric ve-hicle demonstration project as part of its 10-year Smart Grid strategy.

The project evaluated the suitability of electric vehicles and electric vehicle char-ger technologies for New Brunswick’s geography, climate and telecommuni-cations networks. It has the potential to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in the province by ensuring customers have access to the right technology, prod-ucts and services as they consider the purchase of this kind of vehicle.

“We want to help make electric vehicles a smart clean choice for New Brunswickers,” said Gaëtan Thomas, President and Chief Executive Officer, NB Power. “Our Smart Grid Vision means investing in technologies that help us integrate additional clean, renewable energy onto our grid and put off investing in building fossil-fuel based generation. More electric vehicles on the road trans-late into lower costs for NB Power and stable rates for customers in the long run.”

The demonstration project, dubbed Shift Your Ride, has three major com-ponents:• Evaluating electric ve-

hicle technology and programs to support charging infrastructure in businesses, commu-nities and homes. While geography and climate are factors to evaluate, the key factor is ensuring compatibility of electric vehicle charger technol-ogy with New Bruns-wick’s broadband net-work. Electric vehicles can be charged when re-newable energy is avail-able, so real time usage information is available to Smart Grid’s virtual power plant.

• Engaging and inform-ing New Brunswickers about the economic and environmental benefits of electric vehicles, in-cluding fuel savings and the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emis-sions as well as the costs, locations, best practices and timing for charging of electric vehicles. NB

Power is partnering with national electric vehicle education and advocacy partners Plug’n Drive and the Canadian Auto-mobile Association.

• Undertaking a fleet re-view service to enable municipalities and orga-nizations to determine a business case and suitability of integrat-ing electric vehicles into their fleets. NB Power has partnered with Fleet-Carma to offer a fleet review service with the municipalities of Fred-ericton, Moncton, Quis-pamsis, Rothesay and Bathurst as well as the Department of Transpor-tation and Infrastructure.Fredericton has already

received a complimentary fleet review using FleetCar-ma’s innovative software. Moncton is undergoing the review while Bathurst, Quispamsis and Rothesay have agreed to take part in the project. Other mu-nicipalities are being ap-proached.

“The City of Fredericton is excited to be involved in this progressive project with NB Power,” said Fred-ericton Mayor Brad Wood-side. “The FleetCarma review provided us with details on a key sample of our fleet, revealing new information that can help shape future decision-mak-ing about vehicle renewal options. If we are to be sustainable, we must con-stantly look for new and better ways to do things.”

Thomas met with car dealers from around the province to explain the project and learn more about their plans for elec-tric vehicle certification and sales.

“Our desire is to under-stand better how we can support the dealers who are already selling and ser-vicing electric vehicles in New Brunswick and make them aware of what we are doing to support the growth of an industry that will have direct benefits for them over the long term,” said Thomas.

NB Power performed a review during the winter, evaluating the benefits of integrating electric vehicles into its fleet. The results were positive, demonstrat-

ing a strong business case for integrating five electric vehicles as well as adding to New Brunswick’s charg-ing infrastructure with new units in Fredericton, Monc-ton and Bouctouche. The public can obtain access to all of the charging units.

Depending on market growth and public aware-ness, New Brunswick could have up to 6,000 electric ve-hicles on the road by 2020. NB Power is partnering with two Canadian leaders in electric vehicle information to encourage this growth by promoting better under-standing of electric vehicles, charging technology and the benefits they could provide to New Brunswick.

Plug’n Drive is the na-tionally recognized advo-cate for electric vehicle understanding, providing information to help Cana-dians make the best deci-sions for their individual needs. The Canadian Au-tomobile Association is a recognized leader, provid-ing 5.8 million Canadian drivers with driver educa-tion and support. It recent-ly launched a web portal about electric vehicles aimed at making electric vehicle ownership acces-sible to all Canadians. b

The big iron was gleam-ing and the floors of the

International Centre were jam-packed, as the sold out National Heavy Equipment Show rolled into Toronto on April 18-19, 2013.

Over 12,000 visitors came through the doors of this massive event and they were not left disappointed. Many remarked about the size and diversity of the heavy equipment being showcased. The aisles were packed even though the show encompassed the larg-est floor space ever which included almost 7.5 acres of exhibit space! Over 300 ex-hibitors participated in this biennial event, up 25% over the last show, some from as far away as Austria.

All the major manufac-turers and brands were well represented with impressive displays featuring the latest, most innovative machinery and products on the market to date. Exhibitors reported excellent traffic and many sales and solid leads to fol-low up on in the months to come. Major construction projects are in the works during the next several years and the buyers were defi-nitely at this event.

Aggregates and Road-building Magazine was proud to sponsor the Grav-el Pit again in Hall 5 and also produced the high cali-

ber show guide. The Bell Push-to-Talk

Backhoe Rodeo filled the bleachers once again with some of the best backhoe operators in the area taking the controls and doing the seemingly impossible with these machines. Thank you to Case, Volvo and New Holland for the use of their equipment for the rodeo. We would like to congratu-late Octavio Miranda, the winner of the 2013 NHES Backhoe Rodeo. Octavio has won every rodeo ex-cept one since 1996, so he is definitely a force to con-tend with. Octavio’s final time on the three machine circuit was 1:13. Second place was Joe Trecapelli with a time of 1:17 and in third place was Eric Cous-ins with a time of 1:26. We would like to thank David Fiddler and Most Excellent Productions for managing this exciting feature.

Thank you to the fol-lowing organizations for their continued support of this event: Aggregates and Roadbuilding Magazine, the CAED, OHMPA.

We now look towards 2015. Stay tuned for up-dates about our next Na-tional Heavy Equipment Show and we wish all of our visitors and exhibitors continued success until then. b

The PrimeTech brand was created in 2005 within the Italian FAE Group, from which it inherits twenty years of experience in the

design and construction of professional mulchers ap-plicable to tractors, skid-steer loaders, excavators and special-built carriers

(prime movers).Since then, PrimeTech

has been constructing tracked prime movers that, depending on the FAE

head attached, are used in forestry applications as well as soil stabilisation and land conversion, even deep below the surface.

The PrimeTech tracked prime mover range was recently expanded to in-clude the new PT-175, the most compact and light-weight vehicle of the PT range, designed for opera-tors already familiar with compact vehicles (such as skid-steer loaders) but who require a more powerful and productive alternative for expanding their operat-ing options.

PT-175 features the same technology and com-ponents as other models of range, though it encom-passes a series of improved features and solutions that turn it into an even more advanced vehicle.Main components:• Engine: Cummins

QSB4.5 with 160 hp and

4 in-line cylinders.• Hydraulic Circuit: Sauer

Danfoss components with 100cc mulcher pump.

• Undercarriage: Berco MF 200, available in the STD version (with 500mm wide track shoes) and LGP version (with 700mm wide track shoes), both featuring an extremely low ground pressure. Moreover, it only takes a few hours of work to switch to a different undercarriage version.

• Forestry Mulcher: FAE 140/U available in three different models: model 140/U-140 (and 1465mm working width); model 140/U-175 (and 1820mm working width); and model 140/U-200 (and 2060mm working width).

Cutting-edge technology and easy access to all components

Perfect accessibility to the machine and its com-ponents, both for daily checks and for more thor-ough maintenance inter-ventions, is an advantage that only PT-175 can offer, as it is the only vehicle on the market with the follow-ing features:• a hood that opens com-

pletely and tilting cabin driven by an electric pump, which allows in-specting all components in the engine compart-ment and beneath the cabin;

• hinged side doors that can be effortlessly opened for daily mainte-nance of the vehicle;

• rear winch and hinged radiator guards that can be opened for quicker and easier radiator clean-ing.

Extreme comfortThe operator is at the

centre of every action and manoeuvre. An operator who loves his work and can perform his tasks in op-timal conditions is a better operator. This has a direct, instant impact on operat-ing costs, on-site safety and environmental protection. PT-175 is distinguished by:• Perfect control and ma-

noeuvrability thanks to the vehicle’s optimal balancing, ideal weight distribution, reduced di-mensions and low centre of gravity.

• The roomy, soundproof driving cabin features ex-cellent operating visibil-ity coupled with a mini-mal level of perceived vibrations.

• The functions and con-trols are clear and easy to use.

Fields of applicationPT-175 is designed to

perform light to medium duty work in the forestry sector. One of its strong points lies in its dimen-sions, which enable it to work on sites with width re-strictions (<= 1750 mm). PT-175 is mainly used for vegetation management, for cleaning undergrowth, cutting and eliminating bushes and shrubs and for cutting seismic lines.An increasingly varied offer

With its 160 hp pow-er, PT-175 completes the PrimeTech prime mover range, which also includes the 275 hp PT-300, the 415 hp PT-400 and the power-ful 600 hp PT-600.

With these four models, the PT range by PrimeTech is capable of satisfying the needs and an increasingly numerous and demanding clientele.

In a recent keynote address to the Montreal Council on Foreign Re-lations, Pierre Gratton, President and CEO of the Mining Association of Canada (MAC), stressed the importance of keeping Canada’s mining industry competitive for the benefit of both Quebec and Cana-da at large.

“Canada is currently a global mining power-house and its economic contributions reach far beyond the mine gate and the communities where we operate by providing high-paying jobs and spinoff business opportunities across the country,” said Gratton. “However, our current leadership status should not be taken for granted as mining investment dollars are highly mobile and global competition for it is fierce.”

As the third largest mining region in Cana-da, Quebec has been an important part of this growth, but the province has recently lost ground in relative terms. Grat-ton noted that Quebec doubled the value of its mineral production over the past decade, but oth-

er provinces like British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador have tripled, quadrupled and even sex-tupled the value of min-eral production over the same period.

“I am concerned that mining growth in Quebec may fall off significantly due to the present policy direction of the govern-ment,” said Gratton in relation to the expected tabling of new mining tax legislation by the Quebec government that could see high royalties and tax-es placed on mining com-panies operating in the province. “Quebec should be aiming to maintain its status as a sophisticated mining jurisdiction, one that understands that tax instability and higher royalties will drive away investment, economic de-velopment and employ-ment.”

By many accounts, Canada is one of the larg-est mining countries in the world. For example, the Toronto Stock Ex-change (TSX) and the TSX Venture Exchange are home to 58 per cent of the world’s public min-ing companies. Canada

is a top five producer of uranium, potash, nickel, platinum, aluminum, diamonds, zinc and steel-making coal. Moreover, our nation’s reputation for being rich in resourc-es led to Canada landing the top spot for attracting world exploration spend-ing in 2011 at 18 per cent.

Canada’s mineral pro-duction in the last two years surged to new heights. In 2011, mineral production value reached a record $50.3 billion. It declined in 2012 to $46.9 billion due to some soft-ening in the commodity market, but this figure es-sentially represents a re-turn to the previous peak set in 2008.

From a Canada-wide perspective, a largely positive outlook for min-eral and metal prices over the long term sup-ported by China and other emerging markets underscores the oppor-tunities before Canada. However, for Canada to be able to seize these op-portunities, it must re-main competitive.

In his speech, Gratton stated that Canada must work to keep its competi-tiveness by:

•Maintaining low infla-tion, reducing debts, and preserving and im-proving competitive tax levels.

•Staying the course as a free trader and pro-actively engaging the emerging markets, es-pecially China.

• Improving the regu-latory framework for mining projects, while keeping environmental protection a top prior-ity.

•Addressing the loom-ing skills crisis in the mining sector, which is estimated at requiring 145,000 new workers over the next decade to replace retirees and fill new positions.

• Investing in critical in-frastructure to support new mining projects, including key transpor-tation needs such as ports, all-weather roads and rail. “To maintain our

leadership, we also have to remain leaders in re-sponsible mining and act in a way that Canadi-ans have confidence in. If we keep doing things right with our wealth of resources, Canadians will continue to thrive through the development and production of new mines here in Canada, the continued growth of our industry abroad, and the numerous spi-noff economic and social benefits that flow from both,” said Gratton. b

Canada’s Mining Industry Strong, But Challenges Ahead


With the arrival of three “versatile” 8-wheeled plat-forms, Argo utility terrain vehicles have tapped into a growing range of special-ized applications for highly receptive customers.

Argo’s current line of extreme terrain vehicles (ETVs) includes three base-line platforms: the Argo 8x8 HDi, Argo HD XTI and Centaur 8x8. Each baseline features a host of versatile options and components to adapt the vehicle to unique requirements in the field, backed by the manufac-turer’s or dealer’s capabil-ity to customize its product as needed to suit the cus-

tomer.Bernhard Wagenknecht,

VP Sales & Marketing Argo, explains: “Our new class of ETVs was inspired by re-quests from business cus-tomers to push our popular UTV series even further. They were looking for very rugged working vehicles that could take them deep-er into the toughest terrain conditions, whether it’s dense bush, rock or flood-ed areas.”

The development of Argo ETVs began with mine exploration crews looking for more practical and more affordable ways to transport people and

supplies into remote sites around the world. Since then, Argo ETVs have also been welcomed into service for public utilities, forestry, firefighting and search & rescue.Common ground for ETV mobility

Configured to carry cargo, passengers or tools, each of the new ETVs is based on the same en-gineering principles that made Argo the “go to” ve-hicle for serious off-road enthusiasts. The design of each platform began with extreme terrain essentials, including low ground pres-sure, low centre of gravity,

traction and manoeuvrabil-ity. Sharing these primary characteristics, all three ETV types offer a light step on soft or sensitive terrain, excellent stability to safely negotiate slopes and rough ground, and ground-eating mobility to climb through all kinds of soft, wet and uneven terrain.

Safety is a key concern when personnel are sent into isolated work zones, so it’s a key focus for Argo as well. Tipping becomes a serious hazard on rough terrain, but Argo’s low cen-tre of gravity makes it one of the safest off-road vehi-cles available. The tipping coefficient, or static stabil-ity factor, for Argo ETVs is uniformly in the range of 1.35 to 1.4. By comparison, the most popular competi-tive UTVs are three to four times more likely to roll over. Adding a ROPS cage will provide some protec-tion against tipping injury, but it will also raise the centre of gravity and make the vehicle less stable as it negotiates boulders, logs and steep inclines.

Unlike most ATV/UTV -style vehicles, the Argo ETVs are able to steer through the tightest bush and rock conditions with their zero turn radius and

feature a ground clear-ance of 9” or more. The Argo 8x8 HDi and Argo 8x8 XTI are both amphibi-ous, able to drive straight into and out of flooded ar-eas and small lakes, while the larger Centaur ETV will ford streams as deep as 26”. The vehicles’ ful-ly sealed lower body not only keeps out water and dirt, it also contains ser-vice fluids within the ma-chine. Potential pollutants such as lubrication, oil, hydraulic fluid, antifreeze are safely held in the ve-hicle in case of a leak until they can be properly dis-posed. The ETV body also minimizes heat and spark hazards in dry forested ar-eas and grasslands. Only a short segment of the exhaust is exposed out-side the body, exiting the hull at a point three feet (one meter) above ground level.Rough-terrain “tool carriers”

For industrial explorers and crews working in the world’s most remote ter-ritories, “getting there” is only half the battle. The Argo ETVs are built for hard work, and the de-signers ensured that each platform would adapt readily to the many appli-cations their owners take on. The ETVs are offered with a list of quick-change components that tailor the baseline vehicle to its job with customized equip-ment for carrying cargo, people, special equipment and fuel.

“Making the baseline vehicles easy to convert has really made a differ-ence to the practicality of these ETVs,” says Wagen-knecht. “We’ve had a lot of success with rental houses who stock the vehicles along with a selection of add-on components, much

as they stock attachments for other prime movers. It lets them get more uti-lization from their invest-ment, and a more satisfied customer at the end of the project.”UTVs roll up their sleeves

The Argo 8x8 HDi and Argo 8x8 XTI closely re-semble previous models of ARGO UTVs in appearance, enclosed by a vacuum-formed sealed body with full skid plate provided as standard. Both are powered by 31 HP (23.1 kW) Koehler Aegis 750 cc engines cou-pled to the triple-differential ADMIRAL standard or high-torque steering transmission developed by Argo’s parent company, Ontario Drive and Gear Ltd. (ODG). The trans-mission delivers even torque to all 8 tires and is up to 50% more efficient than hydro-static drive systems.

The HDi model is rated for loads of up to 1150 lbs. (520 kg) and runs at top speeds of 20 mph (32 km/h). Its standard ground pressure with Ar-go’s stock 25” tires is just 2.1 psi (14.5 kPa), which can be pared down to as little as 1.06 psi with the use of Argo’s 18” wide rubber multi-purpose tracks. This excellent weight distribution is es-pecially valuable when crews are traversing en-vironmentally sensitive areas – the impact of the Argo vehicle is actually lighter than a man’s foot-step!

Argo also offers 15” or 18” quad tracks for all of its vehicles, designed to provide increased flota-tion along with traction to scramble over obstacles on irregular terrain.

The XTI is a beefier ve-hicle with a 1500 lb. (680 kg) load capacity and a top speed of 17 mph (27 km/h).

Like the HDi, the XTI fea-tures a one-piece ergonomic handlebar steering control with a mounted brake lever. Its greatest departure from the lighter HDi is in the chas-sis, modeled after the highly durable and robust Centaur 8x8.Extreme-terrain trucking

The top of the line 2013 Centaur 8x8 has adopted

the look and the work ethic of an extreme-terrain truck. Shifting to an automotive-style steering control, the Centaur is driven by a 34 HP (25.3 kW) Daihatsu/Briggs & Stratton engine with the advanced Centau-rmatic transmission, de-signed specifically for this ETV by ODG. Operating at speeds up to 28 mph (45 km/h), the Centaur hauls

loads up to 1500 lbs. (680 kg) and boasts a towing capacity of up to 2000 lbs. (900 kg) using an auxiliary trailer available from Argo.

The hallmark of the Centaur is the payload plat-form behind the 2-person cab. Argo has developed a varied selection of flatbed decks, a dump box as well as a multi-purpose mount-

Attendance Up For The 2013 Edition Of The Atlantic Truck ShowThe owners of the

Atlantic Truck Show, the Atlantic Provinces Trucking Association (APTA) are happy to report that the 15th edition of the event ex-ceeded all of their ex-pectations in terms of exhibitors, content and visitor attendance.

12,250 visitors streamed through the gates during the two-day event and they did not leave disappointed. This is up from at-tendance in 2011 and show management is

extremely pleased with the results of this event.

Attendees were in awe of the gleaming displays of big rigs and industry related prod-ucts and services that encompassed the en-tire Moncton Coliseum Complex and parking lot.

The recruitment drive was a huge hit, with visitors and com-pany representatives pleased with the en-thusiasm job seekers displayed about the in-dustry.

Exhibitors were ex-tremely pleased with the high quality traffic and reported solid sales activity and many leads to follow up on in the coming months.

“The show ABSO-LUTELY was a success for us. We booked 6 ad-ditional loads and are sure we will recruit at least 4-5 more drivers for East Coast work, not to mention we strength-ened our truck/trailer delivery position with our existing custom-ers. We’re very happy

with the outcome,” said Wendi L. Keller with the Drive Star Group of Companies.

Brian Donovan of Permanon Canada Lim-ited echoed these sen-timents. “Just a quick note to let you know how pleased we were with the quality of the decision makers who visited our booth this year at the Atlantic Truck Show. We will be back in 2015.”

The leaders of the in-dustry were well repre-sented with impressive

displays featuring the latest trucks and truck-ing related products on the market today. Manufacturers have raised the bar when it comes to fuel efficiency and environmentally friendly products as well as the launch of newer engines and hy-brid technology which was showcased at the Atlantic Truck Show.
