Coach tour operator Edwards Coaches has upgraded lifting equipment at its Welsh depots with Stertil Koni ST1075FSF electro-hydraulic mobile column lifts.
Edwards' 190-strong fleet of buses and coaches is maintained at the Swansea workshop, where two sets of the new lifts are handling vehicles weighing up to 30 tonnes.
The operator has already ordered two more sets for its nearby Pontypridd site, which is a newly-authorised test facility for HGVs and PSVs.
The lifts have a push-button control box on each of the columns, allowing the equipment to be operated – individually, in pairs or simultaneously – from any one of the columns in the set. Maximum lift height of 185mm can be achieved in 75 seconds.
