The Importance of Having Your Heavy Equipment Glass Repaired
websitebuilder • Mar 11, 2016
Heavy equipment such as excavators, bulldozers and backhoes are extremely helpful on a number of jobs. However, before you send one of these pieces of machinery onto a job site, you should be certain that the glass is intact and safe. There are many factors that you should consider when your heavy equipment glass needs to be repaired.
Keeps the Driver Safe
The reason the glass is there is to protect the equipment operator from any flying pieces of debris. As you are bulldozing something, random objects could fly into the air and hit the glass. Something could be heavy enough to create a chip or break. If the issue is not fixed quickly, then the crack can grow until the glass shatters completely, putting the driver in danger.
Keeps Others Safe
The other issue that arises when a crack develops in glass is that the driver’s vision becomes impaired. There might be people walking around the site that are placed in harm’s way because the driver cannot see a certain area in front of them.
Guidelines are in place so that everyone on a job site remains safe. It is always preferable to deal with an issue while it is still small than to allow it to get worse.
