Lower vibration
22 July 2015
British Gas Energy Experts (BGEE), the UK’s largest provider of cavity wall insulation, has changed to Makita rotary hammer drills to improve productivity and better protect staff.
Test-room and real-site trials showed the Makita HR4013C ultra-low vibration drill to have 50% more safe operating run-time than the alternative machine before the users were likely to reach their EAV and giving nearly two hours more work, before ELV was attained.
The Makita machine is far safer for operators with a maximum vibration rating 20% lower than the machine it has now replaced across the BGEE field teams.
