The Secret Life of Quarries

Without maintenance, every machine in every quarry would eventually fail.

Tools grow blunt, tyres deflate and engines need ever more fuel to do ever less work.

But submitting a machine for maintenance too early dents production and reduces profits. 
In quarrying maintenance, timing is everything.


There's a perfect point to change every tool. And an ideal pressure for every tyre. Timing it right takes know-how and practise.
