For a commercial landscaping company, a residential home construction company, an excavating service or a road construction company, having the right equipment to get the job done is important.
When it comes to the need to drill through hard soil, rock or combinations of different materials for any type of construction job, having the right drilling attachment can make even a tough job a lot easier. As there are different drill attachments available, knowing what is needed for a given job will be important.
Small Jobs
Sometimes, it isn’t practical or feasible to use heavy equipment on a job. When this is the case, using a smaller skid steer and the right drilling attachment can make it practical to navigate the equipment into tight spaces without sacrificing on power and control of the drilling process.
With the option to choose a drifter with percussion rotary motion, it is possible to allow for a full range of motion and mount the attachment on either side, allowing full use of the bucket or blade on the equipment.
Look for attachments that can be customized to your skid steer. It will also be important to consider the controls used to operate the drill as they need to be intuitive and work for the operator and the cab configuration.
Large Jobs
Excavators are the best option for large projects or when there is significant drilling required. With excavators, finding a company that will customize the drilling attachment and provides installation on your equipment will be critical.
This will ensure that the drill is set up correctly to avoid any damage that can occur with poorly configured attachments. Manufactures that offer this customization can end up saving a construction company time and money on the installation in addition to providing a drill system that is going to have a long-life cycle with just basic maintenance requirements.
