Congratulations to Azza and the team on winning the Meads cup. A gutsy effort from the boys to take the lead in the second half, dig deep extend the lead and secure the win. Excellent work.

Temp Staff Required.

While we are trial running the T Skidder we will be requiring some extra staff to help in various areas of the operation.

We are looking for a couple of digger operators to potentially load the T Skidder and/or stack wood at the drop zone to increase the current workflow of the system. Competency on slopes would be good at the loading end.

As this is only a trial operation running for approximately 2-3 months, we cannot guarantee work will be on going after the trial is completed.
Ideally suited to someone in between jobs or in a similar situation based in Taupo or Rotorua.

Immediate start for a suitable applicant.

NEW STEEL
We recently took ownership of this TWinch 40.3 thanks to Chris and Ian from FORCO. They were kind enough to allow us to trial the machine to complete a large face in 039’s block. Upon meeting Ian and Chris and testing the machine it was plain to see this would be an asset in the fleet. Capable of 25t pull at 12kph from first wrap to last wrap and 90 degree angle pull. With user friendly options of a remote operation, auto movement sensor, a line for assisting chain management and other and support from genuine good buggers(like most we deal with). It will complement our fleet nicely in conjunction with our DC winches as well.
