Format: 3 days
No of Participants: Up to 4
Certification: FAS CSCS logbook/ticket and FETAC certificate
Objective
Instruction and practical training in the appropriate use of site dumpers in different environments, to ensure that all participants receive certification in line with current regulations.
Background
In a diverse range of construction and manufacturing sites, site dumpers are already being used in a wide variety of applications, on both big and small projects. From cramped construction and rough terrain project sites to utility, landscaping, golf course, nursery, cemetery and rental applications — site dumpers save contractors many hours of loading and unloading materials.
Site dumpers haul all types of materials including clay, sand, gravel, spread fill, asphalt, rubbish, rubble, lumber, ashes, coal, slag, turf and fertilizer.
Certified training is essential to operate a site dumper safely in a wide variety of sites and also to recognise the potential hazards associated with each site.
