During Ovarian Cancer Month, we will work toward drawing attention to the world's most lethal gynaelogical cancer. 

Ovarian cancer is a disease that affects women around the world, and it is one that is often overlooked and underfunded. Despite 51% of women not surviving 5 years after diagnosis, it is not as well-known or well-funded as other types of cancer, such as breast cancer. This is a serious issue, as early detection and treatment are crucial in the fight against ovarian cancer. 

Knowing the signs can save lives. Read Siobhan's story... 

This is where we come in, as we are working with OCRF (Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation) during Ovarian Cancer awareness month to bring attention to this horrible affliction that affects thousands of women every year and, to raise funds and awareness for ovarian cancer research. 

One of the biggest challenges in detecting ovarian cancer is that its symptoms are often vague and mimic other common female complaints. Symptoms such as a swollen or bloated pelvis, appetite loss, feeling full quickly, tiredness, and unexplained weight changes can all be caused by various conditions. 

There is currently no early-detection test for Ovarian Cancer.

With no early-detection tests and such vague symptoms, many women are not diagnosed until the disease has already progressed to a more advanced stage, which makes treatment much more difficult and diagnosis a death sentence.

The same ovarian cancer treatment and drugs have been used since 1992, and the need for new, innovative treatments is crucial. According to the OCRF, an early detection test could save the lives of more than 8,000 Australian women over a decade, or save 1.3 million lives globally over the next decade. This is a significant number, and it highlights the urgent need for more research and funding for this disease. Unfortunately, only 29% of women diagnosed at a late stage will survive more than five years.


What actions can you take? Spread awareness by sharing your story and using the #OvarianCancerAwarenessMonth tag.

Also, donate to the OCRF to support their efforts in finding new treatments, managing recurrence, early detection, and prevention. Your support is crucial in the fight against ovarian cancer, so spread the word and make a difference.

How to Operate A Digga Bucket Broom

Having trouble operating your Digga bucket broom? There are a few tips and tricks when it comes to brush adjustment & height, rotation direction and the broom emptying procedure. We've summarised them for you below. Direction of travel and brush rotation Always sweep at a high enough brush speed and low ground speed to effectively discharge the material being swept. Brush height adjustment Remove the handle pin, twist the handle, and replace the pin. Re-adjust the axle to the correct height using both handle adjusters. Return handles to their original position. Correct Brush Height Set the height of the brush so the bottom of the brush is approximately 30mm lower than the bucket cutting edge. The brush must be level. Emptying Procedure When the bucket requires emptying, stop the rotation of the brush, lift your loader arms and crowd the bucket forward so the Bucket Broom hood swings away from the bucket. Examples of Damaged Bucket...

How to Replace DR Auger Rock Picks (Dedicated Rock Augers)

-
Image
Rotating rock picks, are the auger teeth used on our Digga dedicated rock augers (DR) for drilling from soft rock to hard fracturable rock. Here are some things you can observe to determine whether the rock picks are worn: The teeth need to rotate while drilling to maintain an efficient cutting tip. The tungsten tip and tooth should be evenly pointed. Poorly maintained teeth reduce cutting efficiency and wear out faster costing time and money. We recommend you replace worn teeth immediately! Tip: the outside teeth (C) will wear the fastest as they are travelling the greatest distance so will need replacing more often. Try swapping the outer tooth for an inner tooth to keep the wear even. Always use your best teeth on the outside pockets. Here are some examples or rotating rock picks in various states of wear. Tooth A has not been rotating in the pocket and as a result the tooth is uneven and will cut poorly. We recommend changing this tooth. You may also notice if the tungsten tip has...
