Most opperators I know liked the 8s but wit no cab, No AC and no ride control they are dynosuars now. Also too much power too slow. Put a rookie oin one and they will break it lol.
I don't opperate, just observer. Well I was untill Vale Inco put us on strike for a year and I doubt I will ever go back......
@northerbrewer What a POORLY DESIGNED scooptram:small fuel tank(I work 10.5 hr shifts),only 2F-R speeds,door doesn't open wide enough,very bouncy ride,bucket/boom ctrl keeps hitting "do u want to do brake test"button,seating position is NFG as compared to a WagnerST8,some of us operators are tall people! In a Sandvik I prefer a 1400 over a LH514 anyday! ATLASCOPCO RULES in my book!
This is new model from Toro 1400, made by same factory. Made in Finland, town name Turku. Tamrock/Toro were bought by Sandvik about 10years ago, and they have now stopped using Tamrock/Toro brands (Now Sandvik drills and loaders/trucks).
