IN FOCUS / ANGLOMOIL AND FULLER MOBILE CRANES
FULLER MOBILE CRANES DELIGHTED WITH ANGLOMOIL PERFORMANCE Fuller Mobile Cranes has been using Anglomoil products for over seven years. Kane Fuller discussed the relationship with Paul Laganis and the team at Anglomoil and why they continue to utilise the locally manufactured and stocked oil and lubricating products. “UP UNTIL SEVEN YEARS AGO, WE were using a competitive product, but we could see the machines were not performing at their optimum levels and we were having issues. We bought a testing kit, which enabled us to check the viscosity of the oil, and we compared the new oil from the drum to the oil which had been drained as part of a service. The test revealed the new oil was sitting at the same specification as the used oil,” said Fuller. “We immediately went on the hunt for another supplier. I spoke to Paul, and he came back with the right pricing for the Anglomoil product, and we were on board. Since then, Paul has continued delivering what he says he will, and in the time frames we discuss. “Quite honestly, we have been amazed by the performance of Anglomoil’s products and, over the seven years we have been using their products, we haven’t had a problem.” “We service our cranes as per the OEM’s recommendations and we know the oils are performing because there has been no need for interim maintenance. This provides us with peace of mind and we can focus on more important aspects of our business. Recently, we moved to Anglomoil for all our greasing and other lubricating products, which means we use them for everything,” said Fuller. Fuller goes onto explain how well 74 / CAL March/April 2022
he is serviced by Laganis and the Anglomoil team. “Paul is phone call away and, if we need him here, he will be in the yard within the hour. It makes life so much easier when we are dealing with one person for everything as opposed to calling four different suppliers. Anglomoil’s products perform, there is no doubt about it, and Paul’s customer service takes away any hassle. When you call, you are not talking to a machine, which seems to be the direction everything is headed,” said Fuller. Fuller Mobile Cranes brings in subcontractors for some of the maintenance of their machines. It brings their own tools and parts, but Fuller makes sure they use the Anlgomoil oils and greases. “With all of our machines, we find the Anglomoil product performs really well. You can check the viscosity of the oil in our cranes and we find the Anglomoil products keep their shape for longer. Some of our cranes are still showing 70 per cent viscosity when they are due for a service, which is outstanding. Anglomoil product is in our fleet of cranes, trucks, and cars, including my personal car,” said Fuller. Fuller Mobile Crane’s facility has full tanks for the main oils and these feature airline connections. They have also built a bay for the 200-litre drums.
