OTRAC Heavy Equipment, the authorised dealer in Egypt for both the Bobcat and Doosan ranges from Doosan Infracore Construction Equipment (DI CE), recently demonstrated the trenching capacity of the Bobcat WS32 wheel saw attachment.

Two separate demonstration events were organised and presented by Emad Saloum, sales and marketing manager for Otrac, with the first taking place in New Cairo, while the other in the El Minya district of Upper Egypt.

At the events, the WS32 wheel saw attachment was put through its paces mounted on a new Bobcat A770HF all wheel steer loader to demonstrate its capacity to carry out trenching work that will be required on future gas pipeline installation projects in Egypt. The WS32 wheel saw attachment is the largest model ever offered by Bobcat. Designed to cut efficiently through asphalt, rock and concrete, the WS32 wheel saw has a fixed trenching width of 250 mm while the depth can range from 450 to 800 mm.

Karl Fakhoury, district attachments manager Middle East and Africa for DI CE, said: “The WS32 model and the rest of the Bobcat range of wheel saws can cut through a variety of surfaces including asphalt and reinforced concrete, making them ideal for demolition, road repair and creating trenches for utilities such as water, gas, electric or fibre optic cable.
