CanDig
"The CanDig mini excavator has a built-in tripod towing system that makes it easy and safe to haul. Using a Long Ranger, the unit was very stable to tow in one load because of this feature." The core drill is capable of drilling 120 meters, taking NQ, NB or NA core samples. It is helicopter transportable in two loads, with provisions made for fast/easy reassembly in minutes. It can traverse extreme terrain because each of the four drive wheels can adjust itself vertically 32 inches to meet the needs of the uneven surface. Each of the four wheels is independently operated hydraulically in such a way that if one wheel gets stuck or spins, the other three still perform. Two of the wheels are equipped with drum brakes for safety. The drill platform therefore can adjust to uneven ground, then drive from one drill location to the next, then hydraulically raise the wheels so that the level platform base rests on the ground surface, providing drilling stability.
