MITSI EVO X Engine . Here’s an example of either one of or both things going wrong. Pre detonation at high RPM or a timing issue probably the first given this valve has been sent through the entire engine. Another reason why it’s important to run the correct fuel and make sure boost settings as well as fuel to air ratios are tuned correctly. This motor is toast 💥

On January 5, 2015, an equipment rental company truck driver was delivering elevator assemblage to a construction site. After parking on an uneven surface, he finished removing the ratchet straps that secured a 1,000 pound elevator door and turned his back to roll up the straps. The elevator door shifted and fell on the driver, resulting in fatal crushing injuries.

This is a terrible incident that could have been prevented.

With health and safety at the forefront of the transport industry there is a high need and desire to mitigate risks & human factors.

Over the last year we’ve developed this dual axis incline warning system which can be installed on both trucks and trailers to send a visual and audible in cab warning to drivers if they’re parked on an uneven surface or slope that is unsafe to load/unload the product they’re hauling.
Incline measurement parameters can be adjusted on both axis to meet different carriers requirements.

We’re excited to bring this product to market and add another tool to help ensure everyone gets home safely at the end of the day 👊🏽
