Komatsu Opens Edmonton Parts Center, Doubles Canadian Warehouse Capacity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s fair to say we’ve been crushing on Komatsu’s impressive infrastructure lately. We got a firsthand look this summer when the CE crew visited Chattanooga, Tennessee, to see Komatsu’s Chattanooga Manufacturing Operations (CMO). The facility celebrated 40 years of manufacturing and rolled out its 60,000th excavator. Watching those assembly lines, interacting with those skilled workers, and seeing the final product pieced together gave us a real appreciation for everything that goes into buildin
How to Prepare Construction Equipment for Winter Work or Cold-Weather Storage (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fleet managers have two big questions heading into winter: What machines are working out in the cold, and which ones are going into hibernation? Both groups need attention, and you need to start thinking about it right now in September. Working machines need cold-weather fluids, healthy batteries, clean undercarriages, and smarter operating routines. Stored equipment needs protection from moisture, corrosion, and months of inactivity. With fall on the horizon, let’s get all those machines sorted

A Fleet Manager’s Guide to Cold-Weather Fluids and Filters for Construction Equipment (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Winter changes how everything flows. I live in Cleveland. We have lake-effect snow and Erie’s bitter wind. Temperatures get cold and hot so everything crystallizes and then turns to mud. Traffic slows. Schools close. People tread carefully. This also applies to construction equipment, which often keeps working in the winter, finishing projects or moving snow. Their chemistry changes. Hydraulic fluid slows. Wax crystals collect in diesel fuel filters. Engine oil thickens. “Viscosity is one of the
Another Telehandler Brand? AXCS Arrives With Five Models (opens the original)
Read excerpt
AXCS Equipment. Have you heard of them? It’s a clever brand name for an aerial lift manufacturer, but it might be a new one to a lot of our readers. AXCS Equipment just officially launched its complete TH-Series telehandler lineup in North America, so I thought it might be a good time to talk about this new brand and (bonus) talk about teleys at the same time. OK. The story goes back to September 2023, when Turkish industrial group ASKO Holding acquired a majority stake in Custom Equipment, make
