The Makita EK6100
petrol powered, 12" disc-cutter is already firmly established with
site operators due to its powerful, 61cc, 2-stroke, 4.2HP engine and
110mm maximum depth of cut. This is the deepest of any 12" machine
available on the market as well as offering the smallest overall size
profile of any machine available. A further advantage is being
offered for a limited period only – free service cover for three
years.
The Makita Service Plan
enables machine owners to return the Makita EK6100 disc cutter to
their local distributor who will send the tool to Makita's national
service centre at Milton Keynes. Here a full mechanical service will
be carried out completely free of charge. The machine is then
returned to the owner who will incur no cost at all. If damage is
apparent the owner will be advised via the distributor and asked to
sanction the repair cost.
"Our disc cutter
range is proving very popular so we have decided to reward purchasers
with this free 3-year Service Plan offer which is valued at £510
over the period," says Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager, Makita
UK. "It is our intention to drive home the Makita message that this
disc cutter sets the industry standard of cutting depth for 12"
machines with power and manoeuvrability, low weight, clean exhausts
and great value for money."
The Makita 12, 14 and
16 inch disc cutters join the world's first 4-stroke EK7650H 12"
machine to provide a powerful model range of four disc cutters that
serve all sectors of the construction industry. Coupled with the
extensive and popular Makita Cosmos range of diamond blades, this
comprehensive range of disc cutters will meet all requirements of end
users and hire operations.
These models have a
single multi-function "touch and stop" control switch for choke,
on/stop, with a service position and efficient engine cooling is
achieved by a new design of engine cover. These new Makita disc
cutters also feature the latest design in multi-rib drive belt
systems with semi-automatic cam tensioning for longer lasting cutting
wheel performance. The Makita Cosmos range of diamond-cutting wheels
provides enhanced performance and cutting productivity.
