efficiently. When the line-up of equipment that is produced here is stacked up, it’s even more impressive – especially when you consider that some models are exported to South Africa. This includes the 1110-EX Compactor, the V-Series Backhoe Loader and the stellar CX220C LC HD Crawler Excavator. Each piece of equipment built in India is built tough so it will work, effectively, around the world. The following equipment is available in South Africa. 1110-EX Compactor Designed for heavy and demanding applications, the 1110-EX Compactor is equally at home in road and construction job building sites, as it is in mining operations.
