Boom Lift Training Avondale - Aerial platforms or likewise known as elevated work platforms are devices which enable workers to carry out duties and tasks at elevated heights which would not be otherwise accessible. There are a variety of aerial lifts available to perform various applications under various site conditions. If carelessly operated, elevated work platforms can result in serious injury or death. The most common causes of related accidents are falls, electrocution, tip-overs and crushed body parts. Lift operators should be trained completely in techniques in order to prevent accidents while operating lifts.
The Aerial Lift Safety program offers needed resources to help individuals required to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the program, participants would be given thorough instruction. Kinds of lift covered include articulating, boom supported and scissor aerial lifts. The video presents the right techniques operators must follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational inspection, protection against falls, safe driving procedure and stability of the device.
The program addresses equipment reliability and employee safety. All instructional materials are compliant with state, government and provincial agency regulations and requirements. Course management and training techniques would be taught. The trainer would likewise know the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.
Both classroom training and practical training are parts of the Aerial Platform/Boom Truck Training course. Both sessions should be successfully completed 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 completely beyond the base of the machinery. The theoretical training component is virtually the same for both types. The practical part of the training can be completed more quickly if just one type of machinery 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 efficiently use elevating work platforms whilst decreasing the chances of an expensive accident in the workplace. Trainees would review of business policies and applicable rules, talk about Due Diligence, review Criminal Negligence and consequences to employers, trainers, employees and supervisors. Participants would review machine features, operating procedures, stability, parking and fueling/charging procedures. Site-specific safety issues will be dealt with.
