TESTIMONIALS

Cottle Contracting

“We finally got our new Sumitomo SH225, complete with Trimble GPS gear into work on the Kapiti Expressway in mid January and within days it was commissioned to undertake a 800m open drain south of Palmerston North. This contract to give the GPS and especially the tilt hitch a solid workout was a great opportunity.

I can’t give enough praise for the quality of your equipment as I was changing buckets probably up to 15 – 20 times in a day and so fast (15 seconds) too. The tilt was worked hard with both buckets and many native stumps were struck around 3m down and removed with no problems. The drain depth started around 3m and after almost 30,000m3 finished at 6m deep and on time (1 month) and on budget. So not a bad effort with the new combination of gear and a big thanks to your attachments which really proved its high quality and strength.”

“We bought our first Snaplock+ tilt hitch system and bucket four months ago, after being recommended by our local mechanic. We were on the search for a hitch system that would allow a full 180-degree tilt and tough enough to withstand our workload.

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Mark and hearing his knowledge and assurance of quality of the product. We knew we were building a long-term relationship with the Doherty team, being a new business in the industry it’s nice to know we’re using reliable gear with ongoing support.”

“I’ve had other operators borrow my Doherty cleaning bucket and they’ve been massively impressed with how it cuts and picks up material. They ask to swap with their bucket brand so they can keep using mine!”
