The Safe and Reliable Way to Engage with Plant and Machine Operators
At H. E. Services (Plant Hire) Ltd, fostering a culture of site safety has always been our top priority.

Adding an Extra Layer of Safety with Digital Thumbs Up Plant Equipment Hire
The thumbs up procedure is widely adopted across the construction industry, allowing personnel to safely communicate with machine operators. With the Digital Thumbs Up system, we take this safety practice to the next level. Here’s how it works:
The Digital Thumbs Up Procedure
- Red LED Warning: When the machine is in operation, the shield sign mounted on the cab exterior automatically displays a red LED light, warning personnel not to approach.
- Thumbs Up Gesture: To approach the machine, give a thumbs up gesture from a safe distance to the plant operator, asking permission to enter their work zone.
- Controlled Stop: Upon seeing your thumbs up signal, the operator will bring the machine to a controlled stop and press the in-cab button to activate the Digital Thumbs Up signal.
- Green LED and Audible Signal: When the green LED Digital Thumbs Up sign is activated, the machine is disabled, and an audible instruction allows you to safely approach.
Key Features
- Excellent Visibility: High luminosity LED display with a broad dispersion angle ensures visibility even in poor weather conditions.
- Robust Design: Made with acrylic and metal components, the system has an IP67 rating, offering protection against all weather.
- Simple Operation: The panel-mounted push button switch is illuminated and easy to use.
- Visual and Audio Alerts: Emits a loud, high-decibel audio warning that’s clear even in noisy environments.
- AI Technology: Ensures safe interaction between operators and site personnel.
