Working equipment

Old iron is worth keeping alive.

A machine that still does the job is worth more than the quote to replace it.

Around Hammonton a lot of equipment is older than the people running it, and the dealer network gave up on it years ago. That is exactly the equipment this shop is built for. When the part is discontinued, the machine shop and the fab shop make a new one.

What comes in

Wheels, tracks and implements.

Tractors

Farm tractors and the implements behind them, repaired and kept working.

Loaders & backhoes

Loaders, backhoes and heavy iron, all the way up to a D9.

Forklifts

Yard and warehouse forklifts, including the hydraulic and frame work.

Lawn & grounds equipment

Riding mowers and lawn tractors, the small end of the same trade.

Hydraulics & cylinders

The ram, the pin and the bore, with the machine shop on site.

Fabricated parts

Brackets, buckets, guards and pins made new when nobody sells them.

In the yard

Big iron, small engines.

Harvest and season

Downtime does not wait for a part.

Equipment never breaks in the quiet month. It breaks in the week you need it, and the clock that matters is the season, not the repair order.

A shop that has to order every part is at the mercy of whoever still stocks it. A shop with a machine shop and a fab shop on site can cut, bore, weld and build the piece and get the machine back out. That is the whole argument for bringing old equipment here instead of writing it off.

Questions

Straight answers.

Anything else? Call (609) 704‑8211.

How big can the equipment be?

Anything from a simple riding mower to a large D9 Cat, and everything in between.

Do you work on farm tractors and implements?

Yes. Tractors and the implements behind them, for the farms and growers around Hammonton.

My machine is old and the dealer will not touch it. Can you?

That is most of what comes through. Age is not the problem, availability of parts is, and parts that cannot be bought get made in the machine shop and the fab shop here.

Can you make a part that is not sold any more?

Usually. Bring the broken one, or what is left of it, and the shop will tell you honestly whether it can be made or whether you are better off sourcing used.

Do you do hydraulic work?

Hydraulic cylinder and pin work goes through the machine shop alongside the rest of the job. Call (609) 704‑8211 and describe what it is doing.

Do you come out to the farm?

Work is done at the shop, 586 Tenth Street in Hammonton, by appointment. Call first and the shop will plan it with you.
