BRADBURY RAMP:TYPE H4103ATL 4tonne limit

Posted by ANDREW CUNNINGAM on July 1, 2008, 8:54 pm

HAS ANYONE RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS RAMP FROM BRADBURY & NOT HAVING ANY TROUBLE WITH IT?

WE HAVE HAD OURS FOR 4 WEEKS & THE LIST OF FAULTS IS ENDLESS, NEW FAULTS SEEM TO APPEAR EVERY WEEK.

HAS ANYONE HAD THIS RAMP REMOVED FROM THEIR PREMISES BECAUSE OF REPEAT FAULTS?

THIS RAMP IS A ONE-MAN MOT TEST RAMP WITH SHAKER PLATES.

PLEASE HELP BY GIVING YOUR OPINIONS. THANKS.

Andrew,
Is this a 4 poster or scissor lift,
We had out ATL installed a year ago, bradbury originaly fitted a 5 tonne scissor lift but removed it after 6 weeks (they couldn't get it to work properly) they then removed it and fitted a 1043ATL 4 poster which has been great ever since.

I have the same but single phase, has been in about a year, after initial problems, mainly with installation it has been ok apart from balls falling out of turning plates everything else seems ok. Would be interested to hear your problems as i got 18 months warranty and i need to keep my eye on possible problems.

Hi
Are you sure its a 4103 4tonne as these are shown as a three tonne?
We have a 4403 4 tonne as part of our ATL. The whole installation is kack to my mind. It being trouble from the outset.
After the expiry of our warranty MSI a sister company of Bradbury decided all the components they had repaired now needed replacement these included a 400.00ukp lead light!
Our problems where not just related to the lift but also software and the brake tester. We found Bradbury rep Andy Malone? to be next to useless and as for his manager he didn't respond to my Emails. Judging from other members of this site I am not alone in being ignored. I kept a log of the call outs and the reasons on a s/sheet and this proved useful in arguing our case. Eventually, with the help of the office manager, the charges were absorbed by Bradbury.
I would never buy Bradbury equipment again. Being hung out while Bradbury and MSI (both related companies) slogged it out and us with no means of testing is not an experience I would want to even take a chance of repeating.
I have managed to deter a number of people from purchasing Bradbury stuff by recounting my experiences with this company and I take comfort in that.
I would advise you log everything including phone calls and put in writing now to Bradbury (recorded delivery)your feelings and head it Complaint
What are the specific problems you are having?
