Brake Testing

We can provide dynamic brake testing (to Australian Standard 2958.1-1995), practical in-field testing and mandatory brake testing completion to ensure you meet compliance.

You need to contact us if:

• If your employees are not competent
• If you do not have the vehicle fleet to warrant training
• If your workplace location changes
• If you are concerned about performing the brake testing
• If you require suitable supervision and employee development for brake testing

You need to perform brake testing because:

The Coal Mines Health & Safety Regulations state requirements to afford safe brake testing and systems, such as:

• Part 10 Plant-Division 1 Fixed and mobile plant-66 Braking systems
• Division 2 Mobile plant-73 Checking mobile plant

Australian Standards dictate the parameters of the brake system testing, assessment and required results to be considered safe to use.

• Australian Standard 2958.1-1995 – Earth-moving machinery – Safety – Wheeled machines – Brakes.

Testing applies to all of Brake System, Slew System and Steering System interpretation and analysis.

Our solution

We have competent staff; calibrated machines; and we can test your brake equipment onsite or at our location.

Understanding that some clients have an extremely high turnover in people, we can make our services available on a periodic basis to ensure that your obligations under the Coal Mining Act are adhered to.
