IMPLEMENTATION OF
“WAGTECH”
OPERATOR ADJUSTED
MIRRORS.
2
THE AIMED IMPROVEMENTS
• Improved Skilled Tradesman utilization to
high priority tasks
• Improved Operator comfort as the Mirror
is adjusted to individual needs
• Improved Truck Availability
• Improved Safety to Operators
• Improved Safety to Fitters
• Improved Expenditure on Mirror
replacements
• Improved Safety to Operators due to
having more control of their Environment
3
THE OLD STYLE
• Overall weight 22kg highlighting
a risk to Fitters
• Mirror suffers vibration issues
due to fitment design
• Main frame is made of heavy
metal but is corroding badly
requiring frequent replacement
• Unable to be adjusted by
Operator without tooling
resulting in lost time waiting for
fitters
4
THE ISSUES
• Rusted and
seized bolts
• Operators
carrying tools
to adjust
mirrors where
possible
• Waiting on
Fitters to
Adjust or
replace mirrors
5
THE NEW STYLE
• Stainless steel, Teflon and
Nylon components to eliminate
rusting
• Once the Nylon blocks are
mounted, Mirror slots into place
resulting in minimal weight
handling by Fitters
• 19kg overall weight to prevent
strain if damaged and requires
replacement. (3kg Saving)
• Simple spring loaded latches for
insert replacement. No tools
required
6
ANTI- SEIZE ADJUSTMENT HANDLE
• Just unscrew the
handle
• Adjust the Mirror
inwards or outwards
• Re-tighten handle
• Threaded Nylon bush
is extremely effective
and convenient as it
makes a very firm fit,
but can not be over
tightened
• No slip hazards for
Operators when
adjusting
7
THE SIMPLICITY
• Existing Mirror
Mounts
• Teflon Blocks
• Mirror slots onto the
Teflon blocks
• Stainless Steel Frame
and Handle
• NO RUST
8
QUICK AND EASY
• Quick Release Latches to pull frame forward
• Easy to hold insert tab to make it easier to
remove the glass insert with out the use of tools

get any
easier than
