Wausau Equipment Promotes Safety First with Loose Wheel Nut Indicators
November 4th, 2010
Wausau Equipment is committed to improving public safety, while eliminating equipment failures, and excessive vehicle downtime by including Wheel-Check's loose wheel nut indicator on all SnoDozer chassis. Loosening of lug nuts on heavy duty vehicles has been an ongoing issue for years. The growing number of failures on public roadways has reinforced Wausau Equipments stance on safety.
By adding Wheel-Checks to our vehicles the operator can be assured of proper wheel torque by simple visual means. This will reduce the risk of a wheel detachment, which can result in personal injury or property damage, All while reducing costly downtime. In the snow removal market, equipment downtime can effect public safety and cost thousands of dollars in lost revenue.
Also, by adding Wheel-Checks, the need for a standard re-torque procedure is virtually eliminated. The operator / mechanic can do a visual inspection in seconds rather than checking torque on all 4 wheels.
