Old meets
new – antique
demolition plant,
in this case
a crane and
wrecking ball,
across the way
from two of the
latest Kocurek
high reaches that
were on show
Kocurek carried out the
modifications on this
Volvo EX480DL to allow
the cab to hydraulically
lower to ground level
to allow the operator
to ‘step down’ for
maximum safety
The ability to get ‘hands-on’ with a Volvo ADT
on a specially constructed course was another
attraction at the event

Armac’s Arden site provided an ideal location for
the display of large demolition equipment
