Tiltrotator fans gathering

The next event on the calendar for the Digger Man Blog takes place this coming Saturday 3rd March, with Engcon UK Ltd’s #BigDigDay and its already shaping up to be a massive gathering of tiltrotator A-listers from the UK plant and machinery sector.

Tiltrotator fans gathering
The UK arm of the Swedish manufacturer will display a comprehensive range of Engcon products including EC02, EC04, EC206 and EC214 tiltrotator models. A wide variety of machines are set to be on display with a number of owner operated machines in the line-up, including Rob Bool’s Kobelco SK30 and Owen May’s Takeuchi TB240. Also making a debut will be the first Sany SY35U mini excavator to be fitted with an Engcon tiltrotator with DC2 controls. On the larger side you can expect to see a JCB JS131LC and a JCB Hydradig 110W C/W Engcon EC209 and joystick steering. The event takes place just up the road from Engcon UK's headquarters and the details you need to find it are as follows: Valley Plant Training, Newton Farm Business Park, Ashchurch, Tewkesbury, GL20 7BE. A friendly welcome is always guaranteed from the guys at Engcon, who should be congratulated for this initiative, which I am sure will be a huge success as the UK’s tiltrotator glitterati descend on Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire. Gates open at 8.30 and there will be food and drinks available all day to warm you up during the current cold snap!
I have an Earthmovers site visit locally the day before so will be staying in the area if all goes to plan, ready for an early start, see you there!
