Be Compliant: Be Safe, Not Sorry
Do you know the Facts?
There has been a lot of emphasis in recent months on ensuring that quick couplers are safe and fit for purpose. The current Australian Standard is AS4772-2008 to which all quick hitch couplers MUST comply to. The British Standard EN474-1 and Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC is also a proficient global standard which is recognised in many countries.
Important
If your quick coupler allows an attachment to swing on one pin only or releases the attachment in the event of loss of engagement forces, then it DOES NOT meet the EN474 standard or the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Many Construction Companies also have their own onsite safety regulations, many of which specify that your quick hitch coupler MUST: Have an automatic safety system and/or be dual locking.
Snaplock+ Keypad
Safety is paramount when it comes to quick hitch couplers and the Snaplock+ Coupler Keypad is another innovation provided by Doherty which ensures safety on the job site. The Keypad replaces the traditional “missile style” or “toggle switch” eliminating the possibility of accidental attachment release. It is wired the same way.
Key Features:
- Warning buzzer and flashing light activates when in unlock mode
- Self checking on start up
- Suitable for retrofitting to all types and brands of electrically switched couplers
