The business was founded in 1991, but Richard Wilcoxen has been moving dirt since he was a young man. \u201cWhen I was a kid I used to run around with the tractor and loader and try and build and fix wash-outs and dry dams,\u201d he explains. \u201cThen I got a bulldozer and just got bigger and bigger. I just like being outside and playing in the dirt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">Wilcoxen owns a fleet of earthmoving equipment including dozers, excavators, CTLs and backhoes, and as an owner-operator he covers a lot of ground. \u201cWe do lot of farm work, [earthen] dams and terraces. We&#8217;ve built quite a few ponds this year. We&#8217;ve done room additions. We\u2019ve done large building demolition. We do septic tanks. We pour some concrete\u2014a little bit of everything.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nJVGep6EJEk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>The company<\/strong> recently purchased two new pieces of equipment from Gregg Kromphardt at <a title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.birkeys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Birkey\u2019s<\/a>; a CASE <a title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D excavator<\/a> and a <a title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/casece.com\/en_us\/Equipment\/Crawler-Dozers\/Pages\/1150M.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CASE 1150M crawler dozer<\/a>. In both cases, each machine represented a step up in size and power from previous machines to allow his company to take on bigger projects. When it comes to purchasing decisions, Wilcoxen says that it comes down to a few simple things. \u201cReliability, parts available, and quick service. If they&#8217;re loyal to me, I&#8217;m loyal to them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Increasing Speed, Reducing Fuel with the CX210D<\/strong><br \/>\nWilcoxen previously owned an older CASE 9020 excavator, but he needed something with more power and a manageable footprint that would still work with his existing trucks and trailers. \u201cThe <a href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D<\/a>, it was a little bit lighter [than larger models] and it had lots of power. I thought it had plenty of power and our dealer brought it out and we tried it and we really liked it. We looked at a larger excavator but it was a lot heavier and had to have more permits and a larger trailer to move it around.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">The <a href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D <\/a>weighs 48,973 pounds and is powered by a 160 horsepower Tier 4 Final engine. The excavator relies on an innovative combination of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) technologies, which helps maximize uptime and performance \u2013 all with minimal maintenance. There is no diesel particulate filter (DPF), no DPF regeneration or associated lifetime service costs. These technologies, combined with the CASE Intelligent Hydraulic System, make the <a href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D<\/a> among the most powerful and efficient CASE excavators ever introduced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">Wilcoxen is already impressed by the excavator\u2019s fuel efficiency, speed and smooth operation. \u201cThis <a href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D<\/a>, it will do twice the work or more and burns half the fuel. The most we\u2019ve ever burned in a 12-hour day was about thirty-six gallons. If you&#8217;ve got a machine burning forty gallons a day at $1.80, at $2 a gallon, that&#8217;s a savings of $80 a day. If you figure that up over thirty days, that makes a payment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">\u201cIt&#8217;s quiet and it burns hardly any fuel. It&#8217;s got plenty of power and you can set it for how much RPM&#8217;s you want and how much your hydraulic pumps pump. If you&#8217;re really into something tough, you can turn it up and it&#8217;s smooth and fast.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">The <a href=\"http:\/\/specs.machine.market\/index.php\/2017\/01\/30\/case-cx210d-crawler-excavator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CX210D<\/a> features a new electronically controlled pump, a larger control valve and multiple sensors \u2013 all which combine with the CASE Intelligent Hydraulic System (CIHS) to make the best use of the machine\u2019s power and momentum to achieve cycle times up to 9 percent faster.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">\u201cWe do a lot of dirt work where we load semi trailers and you don&#8217;t want to be paying a semi $100 an hour to sit around waiting on you,\u201d says Wilcoxen. \u201cWe tore out a levee and had twenty-two trucks and they never waited\u2014we were waiting on them. About five buckets full and we had a semi loaded. It was fast.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">Power and speed are always important, but the ability to operate smoothly is also important to Wilcoxen. \u201cYou don&#8217;t want a machine jerking, we put in a lot of pipe and work on some bridges and sometimes we use the excavator to set beams down in there. You want something really smooth\u2014you don&#8217;t want it jerking around.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Greater Dozer Power with the 1150M<\/strong><br \/>\nWilcoxen also upgraded from an older model CASE 850L dozer to a new 1150M, which comes standard with many new features like best-in-class draw-bar pull, improved visibility, a quieter cab and adjustable operator controls. \u201cWe had an 850 for about a year or so and we got to tearing out trees and we were tearing out trees bigger than the 850 would push, so we wanted to get a bigger one,\u201d Richard explains. \u201cThey brought us this 1150 to try and it rode well, it&#8217;s quiet. It&#8217;s comfortable and you can set the speed forward and back, how fast you want it to go from forward and reverse.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">The more robust Tier 4 Final 1150M offered Wilcoxen additional advantages. \u201cIt&#8217;ll push a lot more. It&#8217;s a little bit bigger. The 850 was a 4 cylinder, and the 1150M is a 6 cylinder. It&#8217;s got more torque in it. It rides a lot better. It&#8217;s just heavier. I think it&#8217;s more comfortable than the other one. They&#8217;ve changed the seat in them. Air ride seat, and the controls are a little bit smoother to run. The machine has a lot of improvements on it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">The 1150M dozer features customizable steering, shuttle and blade settings that allow the operator to fine-tune the machine to the task at hand. \u201cIf you got finish work like grading a parking lot, you can slow everything down and do a lot better job than if you get out where you&#8217;re wanting to really move some dirt, you can speed everything up. It&#8217;s nice that way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Planned Maintenance, and the Right Dealer Partner<\/strong><br \/>\nBoth new machines come standard with CASE ProCare, the industry\u2019s most complete factory-provided heavy machine coverage. ProCare includes a three-year, 3,000-hour full-machine factory warranty; three-year, 3,000-hour planned maintenance contract; and a three-year Advanced CASE SiteWatch\u2122 telematics subscription.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">Richard and his team will often handle basic maintenance items, but Birkey\u2019s handles all of their planned maintenance that is covered through CASE ProCare. \u201cThey come out and they change the oil and everything in them for us. They come right out to where we&#8217;re working and do it. They&#8217;re real good about that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-family: Arial;\">Wilcoxen Construction will continue to grow, and as the jobs get bigger, Richard has been considering even larger machines. \u201cWe&#8217;ve got some terrace jobs to do. We\u2019ve got one big levee job to do and a terrace job, and if we get a couple more of them, we&#8217;re talking about getting a 1650M.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wilcoxen Construction is an earthmoving and demolition company based in Avon, Illinois.
