TransportGuard™. Exclusive to Vanguard®
Rental equipment returned to rental depots often has the fuel valve left open. Failure to shut off the fuel supply before equipment transportation can lead to fuel and oil dilution, resulting in unnecessary and costly oil changes. In addition, these unnecessary oil changes increase your organization's CO2 footprint. TransportGuard™ exclusive to Vanguard eliminates this problem.
The 3-in-1 lever shuts off the fuel supply automatically when the operator turns off the engine ignition.
