Easy to operate coupling device
December 1st 2011

Sole UK distributor of Yale Europe Materials Handling forklift trucks, Briggs Equipment, has provided an innovative materials handling solution for a horticultural nursery in West Sussex, which supplies garden centres across the country.

A long-term customer of Briggs, New Place Nurseries recently took delivery of a new 2.5t diesel truck that has been equipped to handle a hydraulic tipping bucket as well as traditional forks.

Clive Richardson, Briggs sales executive, says: "The new truck replaced an older vehicle that had a very labour intensive system for the hydraulic connection, which was being fitted and removed several times a day.

"Working with the company and Yale, we have developed a new coupling device that is much cleaner, easier and safer to operate, saving the company time and making its on-site operations much more efficient."
