HIGHWAY CRASH CLEARANCE Boniface is staging an event that will demonstrate
the benefits of their equipment and the skills of their customers in
clearing the road quickly. To be held on May 13th 2008 at the
Mallory Park race circuit in Leicestershire and utilising the skills of
some of the world’s most experienced recovery professionals, Boniface
will create an example of a motorway accident that will be cleared using
a wide range of the latest types of equipment used in the UK and the
USA. The day will be both interesting and informative to
all connected with the business of keeping Britain’s highways moving
and we advise you to book early as space will be limited. |

NEWS
FLASH This is an interesting example
of the capabilities of the Century 1060S Rotator rolling a casualty
over,this was recently undertaken as part of the preparations being
made to add a rotator training module to the IVR training course. The
load is around 25 tonnes, a single winch has been used for the lift
with multiple snatch blocks and strops to keep the cable within its
SWL and protect the structure of the casualty. The second winch has
been used for restraint, so that after the load has past the C of G it
can lowered gently to the ground. |

Miller introduce new front stabiliser legs A new front stabilizer
leg was demonstrated at the Florida Show in April, this is an option and
available in either two or three stage extension. The three stages
increase the width of the spread on the ground to 264”! The leg is
angled at 3 ½ degrees specifically to cope with camber on the road. Boniface can now offer 5 types of forward front outriggers, the standard which is unchanged, the two new lengths of under slung leg, the Sumo leg, and the XP850 leg. |

Manufacturing process
improvements at Miller Last year we featured the robots at Miller’s main manufacturing plant in Ooltewah that had been installed to weld up the superstructures of the light duty range, this year the investment has been in robots and facility improvements that will increase efficiency in the heavy duty production. The robot welder pictured here is being trialed at welding the extension boom of the Century 9055, the quality of the weld is excellent and the consistency is maintained throughout the product, we welcome visitors to the plant in the USA so if ever you have a chance to pass please call us and we will arrange for you to be welcomed. |

TOP SECRET SCOOP STORY This
truck was spotted by one of our correspondents in build in a secret
location in the United States, rumour has it that this is a new 75 tonne
Rotator being assembled for NY, with extra turret winches, new style
front outrigger legs, four stage rear out rigger legs and locker doors
with no handles! NO HANDLES, what’s going on? And it’s got the SDU4
under lift with a Maxilowreachrider H under lift, how does this guy do
it? I expect Micky Bons will have to add special scoopy up parts, maybe
this truck will be at the Euro in June. |

Two additions to the
Albert Road fleet, which Boniface have supplied recently are a Scania
which originally had been built for George McPhie who had upgraded to a
Rotator, this was thoroughly checked and then repainted in Albert
Road’s striking yellow paintwork and a Renault Midlum which was fitted
with a Chevron 14 series steel bed. Both trucks will add to the
resources of what must be one of the most modern fleets in the Essex
region, Albert Road have also added two Recoverers and a Rotator, Roger
Brown the manager of this facility specified Boniface equipment due to
numerous factors, he is familiar with the excellent characteristics of
the Boniface range who also had the capability to supply the equipment
within a short time frame. Roger is like many Boniface customers a tough
guy to satisfy, but remember Boniface try hard and are OK people! |

latest vehicle supplied to Boleyn for them to store timber for use at
recovery scenes. With internal hinges that open up the door lays flat

Boniface custom built bodies is a sliding accessory stowage cabinet.

they already provide weights of all their accessories, brackets have
been designed to assist in the removal of many attachments from within
the locker system. Some of these features can be retro fitted and are
