Don't misunderstand Ponds...I'm not confrontational by nature, but OSHA doesn't "certify" anything, either. Again, anything may "meet OSHA standards"...

If the ROPS is added here, then it would be nice to assume it "meets OSHA standards", but then again, if they are a foreign company, who (READ Professional Engineer) certifies this compliance? What testing was done? I'd be a bit leery is all. There are Chinese companies (and others, too) that have just added the "UL Listed" stamp to their goods (Xmas tree lights come to mind, most lately) when, in fact, no such testing or certification was obtained. That's a bad example, as UL does actually "certify" stuff (they perform testing).

Don't bet your life on this stuff, is all I'm saying. Sorry to rant, but I run into this all the time with vendors coming to our plants to sell the safety teams "OSHA certified xxxx (insert gloves, ladders, harness, etc.)"

:rolleyes:
