TJ Earthmoving is a family owned and operated business with over 25 years' experience in earthmoving. The company undertakes small to large residential, commercial, civil and general works, and offers a personalised service from start to finish.
Based in D'Aguilar, Queensland, most of TJ Earthmoving's work is done servicing the local area: Moreton Bay, Somerset and Sunshine Coast regions.
Owner Dave Andreassen is the second generation working under the well-respected name.
"We're a small, family-owned earthmoving company," said Dave standing proud in front of his latest acquisition: a Hitachi ZX85US-B7. "I took over from my father five years ago, and things just keep going up."
The compact ZX85US-7
Hitachi's new ZX85USB-7 is equipped with a swing boom which allows it to efficiently excavate near walls and guard rails, and is driven by common-rail, direct-injection Yanmar diesel equipped with proven turbocharging technology. The environmentally friendly engine meets EPA final Tier 4/EU Stage V emissions standards, with diesel particulate filter, EGR and common rail to help further reduce emissions.
It also features a versatile Power/Economy work mode that adapts the machine's performance to the specific task at hand. In Power mode, the engine operates at higher speeds to deliver additional horsepower when necessary, whereas the Economy mode optimises fuel efficiency by reducing engine speed during regular operations.
