Mixing Station: Ready for Dust Control
The Pelican PMP08DC-23 mixing station can be used for the preparation of adhesives, over- or underlayments, coatings and other self-leveling materials. Powered by a two-gear, variable speed motor, the Pelican can work with highly viscous materials. It features an integrated hood with a connection for a dust-extraction vacuum, reducing dust on the jobsite when working with engineered concrete mixes and polymer-based compounds.

Rotary Hammer: Clip-on Dust Extraction
On display at World of Concrete 2019 in Las Vegas on Jan. 22-25, the GBH18V-26D Bulldog cordless rotary hammer is able to deliver up to 1.9 ft-lb of impact energy and runs on Bosch’s 18V battery platform. The bare tool weighs only 5.8 lb, with a brushless motor reducing weight and size. The tool can accept a dust-extraction system running on its own battery to contain concrete dust during use. Its built-in accelerometer can shut off the tool in bind-up situations, reducing kickback. Bosch Power Tools; www.boschtools.com
Circular Saw: Compact and Cordless
The SC 60W-A36 wormdrive-style circular saw runs on a 36V Hilti battery and can perform repeated cuts with performance comparable to a corded saw. The simple trigger design allows for finer control over the saw, with no secondary switch required to start working. The saw has a cutting depth of 115⁄16 in. at a 45° bevel, with a maximum bevel of 53°. The tool can be used with Hilti’s 36V 5.2 AH battery, which offers extended runtimes to keep working through the entire day, according to the manufacturer. Hilti; www.hilti.com
Compact Truck Loader: Improved Hydraulics
The SVL65-2 compact track loader has a rated operating capacity of 2,100 lb at 35% or 3,000 lb at 50%, a lower ROC than earlier models with many of the same features as the larger machines. The hydraulic system features a multifunction valve that maintains pressure when multiple attachment functions are in use, such as grapple buckets and augers. The loader boasts a reach of 34.9 in. and a hinge-pin height of 118.5 in. The bucket’s self-leveling function can be activated with a single switch, for when loads on forks or buckets need to be kept stable. Kubota Tractor; www.kubotausa.com
