Jefferson County Highway Department Selects Stertil-Koni

July 8, 2015

Stertil-Koni on July 7, announced that the Jefferson County Highway Department, located in Jefferson, Wisconsin, has selected three of the company’s heavy duty vehicle lifting systems for its new, 83,500 square foot maintenance facility.

Located midway between Madison and Milwaukee, the Jefferson County Highway Maintenance Facility is the hub for its fleet of vehicles which in turn are dedicated to upgrading, repairing, and maintaining nearly 400 lane-miles of state highways, more than 500 lane-miles of county highways, and various town highways. The department services a fleet of 40 plow trucks and related vehicles, including utility trucks and small-load dump trucks.

Helping to make it all happen was Midwest Equipment Specialists Inc., a Stertil-Koni distributor specializing in heavy duty transit, bus, and trucking facilities. Midwest Equipment Specialists Inc. sold the lifts and managed the installation process.

The Jefferson County Highway Department recently held an open house for its employees and patrons on Tuesday, June 9, 2015, where it unveiled new equipment, including the three state-of-the-art Stertil-Koni heavy duty lifting systems. Present was Larry Beyler, president of Midwest Equipment Specialists, Inc., who stated that Jefferson County’s demand for heavy-duty lifting equipment was distinct and necessary. Explained Beyler, “The role of the Jefferson County Highway Department is to ensure that the state, county, and local roads are safe for the population and for visitors to Jefferson County. They simply cannot adequately perform their job unless the vehicles that service these roads are kept in top shape.”

Continued Beyler, “In determining which lifts to purchase, Jefferson County’s highest concerns were safety, durability, and versatility. Stertil-Koni was the lifting company that met all of these needs.”

For its facility, the Jefferson County Highway Department selected the Stertil-Koni Diamond Lift 96, the Stertil-Koni Freedom Lift, and six Stertil-Koni EarthLifts, which feature wireless technology and the company’s new ebright Smart Control System. 

As Beyler explained, “Midwest Equipment Specialists, Inc. is the exclusive dealer for Stertil-Koni for the state of Wisconsin, and we are honored to partner with the Jefferson County Highway Department. We believe they have chosen the optimal lifts for the service and maintenance requirements of their diverse fleet.”

Concluded Stertil-Koni President Jean DellAmore, “We exclusively specialize in heavy duty lifting, and it is extremely gratifying to see how our lifts can support a public entity such as the Jefferson County Highway Department in terms of streamlining their maintenance operations while ensuring the highest levels of safety and durability.”
