Quick hitch safety road shows

Plant hire company Lynch Plant Hire is marking its switch to Hill Engineering's dual pin capture quick hitches with a series of Quick Hitch Safety Road Shows. The shows will highlight the benefits of its new hitches and address safe on-site working practices with appropriate staff including equipment users and nonoperator personnel. The company is replacing the fully automatic hitches on its excavator fleet with Auto-Loc 3 dual pin capture quick hitches through Hill's 'new for old' exchange scheme. Hill is supporting the road shows to explain how the technology works, by not only doing away with the need to manually insert a locking pin, as with semi-automatic hitches, but also providing fully independent locking.
