9 Container bin hooklifts
Container bin hooklift systems as illustrated below do not require certification of the unit mountings to the chassis rails. The unit is manufactured on it’s own bed and bolted to the chassis rails ensuring that no part of the chassis is subject to increased stress.
The A.T.I.B. lift system as illustrated also employs a hydraulic locking device for the securing of the container bin to the hooklift. This system uses a load and lock hydraulic valve that ensures that it cannot release without the application of hydraulic pressure. This has been designed and manufactured to meet the load security rule. In these cases certification to NZS5444 is not required. The A.T.I.B. lift systems are identified with a manufacturer’s plate attached to the right front side.
Any other type of locking system used by other manufacturer’s may require certification.
