In May 2017, the side banks of the highway 440 close to exit 31 to Montée Saint-François had to be cleared from scrub and mud to guarantee a free drain through the drainage canals. Lefebvre & Benoit from Laval, Québec, was awarded the contract.

The drainage between the highway and
the neighboring streets and buildings did not only have to be cleared,
but also put back in shape with gently slanting slopes - the perfect
challenge for the Kinshofer TR14NOX Tiltrotator with 360° rotation and 2
x 50° tilt angle. |

"The advantages for me are clear: much
less travel and it gives easy access to restricted areas. Normally to
clean this ditch I need about a week since I have to remove everything
around and it only took me two days with the NOX!" he smiles. |
„Compared to the
competitors there are just less maintenance costs due to the lack of
cylinders and the width of the tiltrotator is also reduced. For
functionality, mobility and general harmony I am giving the NOX 10 of
10."
