Oil analysis can show you trends in the health of your engines and oil. It can also tip you off to eminent catastrophic failure.

Case Construction Equipment’s new PT240D pneumatic tire roller is designed to require fewer passes and improve penetration and compaction density.

It is built for sub-base and asphalt compaction on large road and highway projects, airport runways and commercial development. The compactor runs on a 100-horsepower, turbocharged, Tier 4 Final Deutz engine. The engine requires no diesel particulate filter, instead using a diesel oxidation catalyst and selective catalytic reduction to meet federal emissions requirements.
