A recent Health and Safety Executive (HSE) eBulletin has drawn attention to an important safety notice concerning the Everun ERT 1500 Rough Terrain Telehandler.
The bulletin links to a new Product Safety Report published by the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS), which identifies the model as presenting a serious risk of injury.
OPSS identify that due to the absence of a coherent conformity assessment and quality control regime essential safety features, such as Longitudinal Load Moment Control ( LLMI), may be missing.
The OPSS report highlights safety concerns that could compromise the safe use of the Everun ERT 1500, and users are strongly encouraged to review the details and take appropriate action. Ensuring that all lifting equipment meets required safety standards is critical to preventing accidents and maintaining safe working environments.
We will continue to monitor updates from HSE and OPSS and share further information as it becomes available.
