Solas service deal launched
HM Plant, the UK's Hitachi construction equipment distributor, has
introduced a new service and an extended warranty agreement.
Solas offers a non-stop nationwide parts and service facility from
its 10 regional depots and costs a fraction of the price of many
competitive service agreements, said the company.
In the London area there is a motorcycle-equipped, rapid-response
engineer. If a machine breaks down, Hitachi's technology enables an
engineer to trace faults quickly and minimise downtime. If a
machine cannot be fixed within 48 hours, Solas customers will get a
machine on loan.
HM Plant chairman John Jones said: "Our customers need the right
equipment for the job so that their work doesn't grind to a halt.
If they operate machinery that isn't completely safe, then they run
the risk of being held accountable for their actions and that can
prove expensive."
