Asphalt Heater Box for Swap Loader

I had the pleasure of meeting with Ron Macey, president of KM International in North Branch, manufacturer of asphalt maintenance equipment about feasiblity and economic benefit of mounting a 4 ton asphalt patch heater on Swap Loader equipped truck rather than a trailer.  You could mount a 4 ton unit (see picture) on a Swap Loader equipped truck, eliminating the need for a dumping trailer and realize a savings of between $2,000.00 and 2,500.00 without losing any capacity or functionality plus eliminate trailer maintenance and backing accidents.  KM International is very willing to mount their units on Swap Loaders skids.  Something to consider when contemplating truck replacement and Swap Loader purchase.  There is lots of potential for savings and increased equipment usage and flexibility.     http://www.kminb.com/  Check out KM International website.
