Say cheese!

Wicklow Farmhouse Cheese, based near Arklow in the Republic of Ireland, has acquired a new Komatsu WA100-8 wheel loader that company founder John Hempenstall confirmed will play a pivotal role in the company’s production chain.

The WA100-8 wheel loader is fitted with interchangeable loading bucket, silage grab and front lifting forks. It will be used on ‘yard and warehouse duties’ centred around the management of their large 170-strong Friesian herd. Supplied to by Komatsu distributor McHale Plant Sales of Birdhill and Rathcoole, the Komatsu WA100-8 wheel loader was developed for farm and agricultural applications from a machine originally conceived for construction use.
