Boom Lift Training Mesa

Boom Lift Training Mesa - Aerial platforms or also known as elevated work platforms are devices that allow workers to carry out tasks and duties at elevated heights which will not be otherwise reachable. There are a variety of aerial lifts available to perform various applications under various site conditions. If not carefully operated, elevated work platforms can cause serious injury or death. The most common causes of related accidents are falls, electrocution, crushed body parts and tip-overs. Lift operators must be trained completely in techniques in order to avoid accidents while operating lifts.

The Aerial Lift Safety program offers needed resources to be able to help those needing to learn how to operate these devices more effectively. Through the program, participants will receive thorough instruction. Kinds of lift covered include articulating, boom supported and scissor aerial lifts. The video presents the right methods operators must follow. Instruction focuses on pre-operational inspection, protection against falls, stability of the device and safe driving procedures.

The course addresses employee safety and equipment reliability. All instructional materials are compliant with state, government and provincial agency regulations and requirements. Training methods and course management will be taught. The trainer would also know the technical aspects of aerial lift safety.

Both classroom training and practical training are components of the Aerial Platform/Boom Truck Training course. Both sessions should be successfully completed for the participant to be given a certificate of achievement.

The self-propelled boom-supported elevating work platforms are different from the self-propelled elevating work platforms in that they are able to position their work platforms completely beyond the base of the machine. The theoretical part of the training is virtually the same for both kinds. The practical training component can be completed faster if just one kind of equipment is used.

Elevating Work Platform Training Program Objectives:

For safely operating Boom-Type Elevating Work Platforms and Self-Propelled Elevating Work Platforms, boom lift training would help operators make use of their machinery more efficiently and will lessen the chances of accidents in the workplace. Trainees would review of company policies and applicable regulations, discuss Due Diligence, review Criminal Negligence and consequences to trainers, employers, employees and supervisors. Participants would study machine features, stability, operating procedures, parking and charging/fueling procedures. Site-specific safety issues will be addressed.
