Description

The John Berends Implements Post Driver is the safest and best value for money post driver on the market. Made in Australia. Based on simple but strong designs, the post driver runs off a single set of remote hydraulics. No plumbing in the back axle is required. Compared to most brands, the design is almost frictionless resulting in a virtually free falling weight with a greater “pounding force”. As a result, a lighter weight can be used. Suits a range of post sizes from star pickets to strainer posts. The protective cage is fitted with a micro limit switch which is connected to a solenoid valve to the ram. When the safety cage doors are opened the hydraulic system is shut down. The system is extremely quick and easy to operate. Note – It is a requirement that all post-drivers meet the design standards set out in the WorkSafe Industry Safety Standard May 2009 edition. Failure to comply can result in the machine being “condemned” by WorkSafe. The John Berends Post Driver meets this standard. For more details contact WorkSafe in your state or ask John Berends for a copy of the standards.
