Boom Lift Training Hamilton

Boom Lift Training Hamilton - Elevated work platforms, also referred to as aerial platforms, enable workers to carry out tasks at heights which will otherwise be inaccessible. There are various types of lifts designed for different site conditions and applications. If not carefully operated, elevated work platforms could cause serious injury or death. The most common reasons for related accidents are electrocution, falls, crushed body parts and tip-overs. Lift operators must be fully trained in techniques to avoid accidents while operating lifts.

Aerial Lift Safety course is designed for people who need to operate the devices more safely and effectively. The course provides thorough instruction on the most utilized lifting devices within the business.. Types of lift covered comprise articulating, boom supported and scissor aerial lifts. The video presents the right techniques operators should follow. Instruction focuses on protection against falls, pre-operational inspection, stability of the device and safe driving procedures.

The boom lift training course will help to deal with employee safety and equipment reliability, making use of materials that are fully compliant with your regional and local regulations and requirements. Course management and training methods would be taught. The trainer would also become well versed in the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.

Components of the Boom Lift Training course include both practical training and classroom training. Both sessions must be completed successfully for the participant to receive a certificate of achievement.

The difference between self-propelled elevating work platforms and self-propelled boom-supported elevating work platforms is that, on the latter type, work platforms could be positioned totally beyond the base of the machine. The theoretical component of the training is nearly the same for both kinds. The practical training component could be finished faster if only one kind of machine is utilized.

Elevating Work Platform Training Program Objectives:

Aerial Platform/Boom Lift Training provides competency requirements for safe operation of Boom-Type Elevating Work Platforms and Self-Propelled Elevating Work Platforms (for use on paved/slab surfaces). Training would help operators to make more efficient use of elevating work platforms whilst lessening the chances of an expensive workplace accident. Trainees will review of applicable rules and company polices, discuss Due Diligence, study Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, supervisors and workers. Participants would study machine features, stability, operating procedures, parking and charging/fueling procedures. Site-specific safety problems will be addressed.
