4 EBLO FIT 3 POINT BELT TO KOMATSU DOZER SEAT Our customer Van der Vlist based in Moerdijk, Holland wanted to increase operator safety in a Komatsu Dozer at a difficult work site. Their request was to modify the existing Komatsu seat by fitting a high visibility 3 point belt. So that in the event of an impact the operator would be retained in his seat within the cabin. The orange belt can be seen by site supervisors and also includes a safety switch so that the vehicle cannot move until the driver is strapped in. This conversion was made by the EBLO Technical team and reinstalled on site as part of the service. ESCAPE BELT Recently EBLO Seating has added an Escape belt device to our range. The Escape belt is an innovative and thoroughly tested product. In the event that a passenger car or commercial vehicle falls into deep water the Escape device has a plunger to immediately release the occupant s seat belt. The device is ideal for vehicles frequently being driven in areas with canals, lakes, sea fronts, docks and rivers. It avoids the occupant being trapped by their seat belt underwater. The Escape belt is available for dealers in a handy counter display. If you are interested in the Escape belt, please contact us via our website 4

The team working the stand included John s dad, mum, sister, uncle and best friend and myself David Hale as we handled famers from all over Ireland and the good weather ensured a great turnout.
