The trade-in is still in er.cellent running condition, and was replaced mainly hecause Winnebago County charges to the State a�d towns are hased partly on equipment depreci�tion� and this piece of equipment had been fully depreciated. The roller had been traded to Prook:s Tractor Incorpor�ted, and I took: the liberty to asl: brooks for- � proposal ta4;ing our 1961 roller in trade.

The roller we are presently usinq is �5 years old is continually in need of repairs. Therefore, will be look-ing to replace it within the next yerir or two. The roller under consideration is not only in excellent condition but the fe�ture of articulated steering would be very beneficial when work:ing around curb retur�s. There was �ppro:<imately �2US,�JO�J placed in the 1986 capital improvements program for major equipment replace�T�ent for the F'ublic Works Department. That equipment has now all been bid and ordered o-�ith the total bid prices appro::im�tely ��3,��UU less than budgeted. We could therefor-e tzk:e advantage of this unusu�l opportunity to upgrade our eq�iipment fleet without budgeting additional dollars. � m�D o� 0 x N Resolution #211 BROOKS TRACTOR INCORPORATE� HWY. 4'I P.D.

Attn: Ken Robl Sir, BFaANCH OFFICES: Milwaukee [4'14j 462-9790 Sun Prairie [60B] 837-5'14'I La Crosse [60BJ 786-2644 We would like to propose to you a Hyster C 530A Roller which we took in trade from Winnebago County Highway Dept. The benefits of an articulated roller are many relati•;e to the Bros. roller that you currently have in use. Benefits: - With Articulated steering wheels provide full width compaction coverage on turns. Fewer passes are required. Dependable all gear drive train runs in oil. Problems and adjustments of chain drive are eliminated. -Oscillation - up, down and to left or right - assures even compaction on irregular surfaces. - Functional frame design incorporates ballast compartments for low center of gravity and exceptional stability. - Shortest inside turninQ radius of any pneumatic compactor. Maneuverability is unequalled. - He:maa AnQiaeerir:Q keeps tSe operator comfortable, alert, and more productive. Seating and controls are designed for easy and safe operation. - Effortless hydrostatic steerinQ has automotive feel and follow-up. - Service is very easy. No daily lubrication is needed and all the maintenance checks can be com- pleted while standing on the ground. The Hyster C 530A is not only efficient, but also the most productive pneumatic roller in the industry today.

The popularity of the Hyster C 530A is unsur- passed. As a matter of fact, there are more Hyster C 530As sold today than all other pneumatic rollers put together. In Wisconsin alone, 108 Hyster C 530As were sold over the past ten years. Price of a new Hyster C 530A is $56, 834.00 However, we have recently taken one in trade from Winnebago County. The condition is excellent, and the service records indi- cate normal maintenance items but no major problems. We can offer this roller for: Minus your Bros. roller trade Your trade difference is: $26,000.00 - �,000.00 $1�,000.00 Please con sider this proposal closely. You will be attaining a lot relative to the price diferential. The roller should last another 15 to 20 years during which time you will be reducing considerably the operation hours per job, thus reducing the expense of each project.
