Praise Of Service Following Bowmonk BrakeCheck Purchase

Commercial repairers and in house workshops can complete regular inspection sheet brake tests with a brake tester BrakeCheck. BrakeCheck will conduct a Service, Secondary & parking brake test with ease and store in its memory for later printing via PC or portable printer.

A BrakeCheck decelerometer is the solution to carry out regular vehicle brake tests to meet the DVSA vehicle maintenance guidance, a company has offered praise and response to their purchase.

Following the purchase of a BrakeCheck with PC software Janice Rea of New Farm Produce Ltd said “May I credit you on the professionalism of your Company, from the original sales enquiry and follow up and to your own advisement and administration.

The team are a credit, in an environment when too frequently I find myself having to complain, it is a welcome change to send praise and a big thank you.”

Decelerometers have moved on significantly from the old mechanical brake testers such as Tapley Brake Meters. Being electronic there is a much higher accuracy and additional information such as average deceleration, a left/right pull measurement, speed at braking and stopping distance. All tests are time and date stamped.

Truck Fresnel Lens

Blind Spot Lens Receives Excellent Feedback

Due to a blind spot, drivers of trucks cannot see smaller vehicles or other vulnerable road users which are immediately next to the passenger side door of their HGV. These unseen road users can be hit if the truck changes lane in their direction.

DVSA says, “Even the latest HGVs with a full complement of six mirrors, in compliance with the latest EU directive, still have blind spots to the passenger side which are large enough to hide a family saloon car. The solution is to fit a special Fresnel lens.”

Fresnel lenses are now accepted as a very important visual safety aid for HGV drivers and so organisations such as Transport for London and Crossrail insist that trucks are fitted with lenses before being allowed to undertake transportation work on busy urban roads.

A recent customer stated “Great item, the Lens is as described, thanks for fast postage!”.

Another customer past comment with “Very pleased with the Truck Fresnel Lens, happy to purchase further products. Many thanks!”
