4 in 1 Bucket/Spreader Bar Top of page4 in 1 Bucket/Spreader Bar

This 4 in 1 bucket is 900 mm wide and is equipped with teeth, giving it superior digging abilities. Dump height of the 4 in 1 bucket is 1810mm. The mini skid steer loader has the highest lifting capacity of 476 kg of anything in its class. It is capable of lifting medium size rocks and strategically placing them to build rock retaining walls. Although marginally wider than the machine, fitting through extremely narrow gateways can be overcome by lifting the loader arms over the gateway, enabling the machine to pass through, or alternatively disconnecting the bucket, then sliding the bucket sideways through the gateway.

The Spreader Bar is used to spread material and level the surface.


Trenching Top of pageTrenching – Chain Trencher 150mm or 300mm wide x 900mm deep

The trencher is fitted with a crumber bar that results in the trench having minimal debris left in the bottom which would have to be manually removed with a shovel. The trencher is equipped with a side auger enabling the dirt to be placed a small distance from the trench, reducing the amount of dirt falling back into the trench. The trench has neat sidewalls, and the debris is loose dirt, not clods, resulting in a clean backfill.

For 300mm wide trenches requires changing to the 300mm chain. If it is only a small job it is recommended to use the 350mm bucket on the excavator.


  Top of pageTrenching – Excavator 250, 350, 450 buckets.

Trenches can be dug in the above widths. The 250mm bucket has no teeth and is ideally used to locate pipes (minimises any damage to services), whilst the 350 and 450mm buckets are equipped with rock teeth. In severe cases of rock the ripper can be used on the excavator, or broken with the rock hammer.


Post Hole Digging Top of pagePost Hole and Pier Digging

Augers range in size from 100mm, 200mm, 300mm, 450mm, and up to a massive 750 mm. All augers can dig to a depth of 1 metre, or deeper using the 600mm, 800mm or 1metre extensions. The exception being the 100mm auger that can dig to a depth of 6 metres, making it ideal for the installation of sand spears.


  Top of pageContract Drilling/Soil sampling

100mm test holes can be drilled to a depth of 6 metres. If necessary the hole can be cased for future monitoring of underground water. Soil samples can be bagged and labelled ready for the client to test.


  Top of pageTree Felling/Pruning up to 6.5 metres

The 6.5 metres is due to insurance requirements. Phil has previously owned a portable sawmill, and did the entire tree felling for that business. A pole saw is often used to cut down trees piece by piece, where access is limited.


Stump Grinding Top of pageStump Grinding

AAA Narrow Access Machinery aim to be the cheapest, most efficient and reliable stump removal service. Many of the competitors use machines that are powered by a 13 horse power Honda (or similar) that will struggle with this sort of work, especially as Australian hard woods are amongst the hardest timbers in the world. Stumps can easily be turned into sawdust with the powerful 32 horsepower turbo charged Mini Track Loader, which can handle any size stump. Most people are surprised at how quickly and efficiently stumps can disappear.

An alternative to stump grinding is to remove the stump using the ripper on the excavator.


Concrete/Rock Breaker Top of pageConcrete/Rock Breaker

The hydraulic hammer is a RAMMER IN8. The hammer is larger than those typically used on other mini skid-steer loaders or mini excavators.


Power Box Rake Top of pagePower Box Rake
• Turf preparation
• Driveway Restoration
• Builders Cleanup

This attachment is simply amazing! The box rake is uncommon, and therefore not many people know of its capabilities. It can level, grade rake, remove debris, pulverize, prepare seedbeds, remove old lawns and get rid of weeds.

The 1200mm wide spinning barrel has tungsten tip knobs that churn the soil up. It can break up clay, gravel etc leaving behind freshly tilled soil, ready to lay turf. It can restore gravel driveways that have been washed out or severely rutted by vehicular traffic.

Imagine a builder's site, laden with off cuts of timber, rocks, broken tiles, concrete, bricks, sticks, clay, long grass etc. One or two passes over this area flicks all the debris forward leaving behind freshly turned soil ready to lay turf. The Power Box Rake is capable of levelling ground and can wind row the debris ready to be removed with the 4 in 1 bucket.


Under Road Boring Top of pageUnder Road Boring

This attachment can bore a 100mm diameter hole underneath small roads, concrete driveways and pathways up to 8.2 metres in length. 90mm stormwater pipe can be inserted, enabling permanent access for cables and pipes.


Pallet Forks Top of pagePallet Forks

Pallet forks are variable width. The Boxer has a 476kg lifting capacity.


Rippers/Irrigation Pipe Laying Top of pageIrrigation Pipe Laying

Irrigation pipes of up to 25mm diameter can be directly laid into the ground using the specially designed ripper. Any larger pipes can easily be installed using the trencher.


Lifting Jib Top of pageLifting Jib

Awkward loads can be slung from the lifting jib and safely maneuvered into position.
