[QUOTE="Sparkplug, post: 4169450, member: 41938"] The problem with the LOLER testing situation in Agriculture is that it is not properly regulated - as seen from the above comments - every inspector has a view - and no two are the same. If this testing was brought up to Industrial standards I guarantee very few machines on farms would pass at all. You are all getting away lightly, in the real world many of your machines would be marked as "condemned" so until it was repaired to the Inspectors Standard and re-inspected, it would be parked up! So think twice about running along the floor with your TH Forks as your only allowed 10% wear on the heels before they are scrapped and pins and bushes throughout all lifting pivot points are a major failing point, plus cracked hoses, cuts in tyres that may lead to a blow out, horn not working, cab heater/ demister not working, wiper motor not working, seat belt missing or inoperative, mirrors etc etc are all fail points - latest regulations On Site - machines have a Green Beacon- connected to your seat belt - so if your driving the machine the green light has to be flashing indicating you have your seat belt on!
