Excavator attachments manufacturer,
Hill Engineering, has taken
thousands of semi and singlelocking
automatic couplers out of
commission and replaced them with
what is claimed to be one of the
safest and most technologically
advanced couplers available, after its
new-for-old exchange program
proved an “unprecedented success”.

The Northern Ireland-based
company has increased production
of its Auto-Loc 3 coupler, with its
fully automatic dual pin capture
system, to satisfy increasing
demand from UK contractors and
plant hire companies wanting to
upgrade out-dated couplers on
their excavator fleets.

The new-for-old programme
also provides comprehensive onsite
training, full installation
assistance and guidance, after-sales
support and advice, as well as any
necessary customisation to suit
individual customers’ specific
coupler requirements.
