Details: Please see attached an HSE Action Note applying to a Pinfari Zyklon Coaster for your action/dissemination as necessary.

It is stressed that it is not clear whether this type of secondary braking system has been applied to other examples of this ride or to other types of coaster so all coaster operators should have sight of this note.

Please check with the ride manufacturer and/or jurisdictional authorities for information on rides operating outside of the UK.
