he C-750 is a cylinder concrete finisher that is capable of finishing widths up to 156 ft without the need of an overhead truss assembly. It has an electronically controlled automatic advance which changes the attack angle as needed, and the automatic self-widening carriage controls its travel distance. The operator is able to make on-the-fly crown height adjustments using the power-train adjustor controls built into the console. he Pile Driving Analyzer has wireless sensors for monitoring the dynamic load testing of deep foundations. Rather than requiring heavy cables, which can be damaged during testing, to connect sensors to the data analyzer, the wireless sensors allow the data analyzer and its user to be a considerable distance from the actual load testing. he Varilex WSF 1600 speed-controlled angle grinder sports a 12.27-amp motor and an infinite variable-speed control from 2,000 rpm to 7,300 rpm. It has toolless disc changing with an Easy-Lock clamping nut and spindle lock button, as well as an ergonomic, balanced handle and a weight of only 5.2 lb. It is available with 41⁄2-in. to 7-in.-dia. safety guards for grinding discs, or flap discs for cutting or polishing. he 6538-21 Sawzall Reciprocating Saw has a 15-amp motor that features extensive overload protection to avoid burnout, while its Gear Protecting Clutch is designed to protect the motor and gears from the high-impact forces of sudden blade lock-up. The manufacturer claims the Constant Power feature allows the saw to maintain a constant speed and power under the cutting load. This reciprocating saw features both a variable speed trigger and a dial speed control. he EDSC10 crane body mechanic’s truck is designed to fit Dodge Sprinter chassis. Its 11-ft crane body is rated for a 10,000 ft-lb telescopic crane, and is fully integrated into the chassis unlike modified service bodies. At a body weight of 2,660 lb the EDSC10 is light for a mechanic’s truck, and boasts better fuel economy and maneuverability as a result. Includes a shelf hanger bracket system and side packs for storage.
