WALK BEHIND CONCRETE SAW – #B07046

 

Utilities/Water Distribution requested bids for a walk behind concrete saw.  They requested a high torque lower RPM diesel which will reduce fuel consumption and extend blade life.  It is to replace Unit 227, a 1996 Target concrete saw which has high maintenance costs and has reached the end of its service life.  This purchase was approved in the 2007 budgeting process.
