Cat 796AC Mining Truck Assembly

The typical Mackay wet season didn’t stop the team who worked tirelessly to make it happen… Raining one minute and hot the next when we were onsite recently to see part of the assembly for a Cat 796AC Mining Truck at the EA Pad.

Firstly, we saw the chassis and front axle assembly lifted onto 50t Composite Stands. Secondly, the superstructure raised and secured atop. The beginning of one fine oiled machine!

A special thank you to Paul Carman, Foreman. We appreciate your support and the time you took to spend the day with us, to show us how it all works at Hastings Deering. It was an impressive sight to see and one that you obviously have down pat.
