Boom lowers injury risk
August 1st 2008 Construction industry
supplier SIG has bought lead
booms from Invicta Forks &
Attachments to reduce
manual handling risks for
personnel in its roofing
division.
SIG Roofing Supplies
routinely handles heavy rolls
of lead. The booms have
enabled these to be handled
more easily and has
simplified the operation of
loading them onto vans. The
need for manual handling
has been reduced and the
risk of injury lowered.
A key safety feature is a
fully automatic heel pin
retention. This is said to
eliminate any possibility of
the attachment slipping off
the forks during handling. More articles from Invicta Forks & Attachments: |
