  • Cable Avoidance Tool Hire

    This Cable Avoidance Tool (CAT) is an essential piece of equipment for use before the start of an excavation or any dig. The CAT can effectively detect underground piping, cables, and utilities – removing the risk of damaging the piping and avoiding the need for costly repairs and delays, or personal injuries. The Cable Avoiding Tool has three different modes, each detecting a different kind of underground cable or utility. These different modes allow the CAT to effectively detect signals given off by loaded underground cables and VLF radio signals radiated by gas, communication and water service lines. Through the use of a CAT you can map out the location of the cables and plan the excavation more efficiently.

  • Item: Cable Avoidance Tool. Weight: 3kg.

    Please note: This product description and specification is based on the model most widely stocked across our network of partner stores. Alternative brands of equivalent specification may be supplied based on location and availability.

From 1st April 2022, our suppliers will only fuel machines with white diesel. This is due to new government guidelines.

If you, as the hirer, refuel any equipment while it is in your possession, it must be with WHITE DIESEL.

YOU MUST NOT USE RED DIESEL IN HIRED MACHINES OR EQUIPMENT.

If you return a machine refuelled with rebated diesel, suppliers will have to remove and dispose of the fuel. They must also flush the tank and supply lines before they can refuel them. The process is chargeable, with no exceptions.

An insurance charge will be calculated at checkout. If you have proof of your own Hired-In Plant Insurance (HIPI) and wish to opt-out of the insurance charge, you can do so by booking via Live Chat.
