WHAT DOES THIS ROOFER'S CRANE TRAINING COVER?
A telescopic roofer's crane is not only used by roofers; it is also a widely used crane for placing solar panels, air conditioners, windows or construction materials.
We organise this training with all possible types: self-propelled or trailer-mounted, and brands: Paus, Klaas, Böcker, Geda, Effer, Amak or Unic.
Your safety depends on stability and balance. If the outriggers are not placed or placed incorrectly, both your load and crane can tip over.
In addition, it is very important to sling the load correctly, so that it does not come loose and fall. Experienced or not? Every user is welcome in this training! Whoever passes receives their official certificate afterwards!
You not only learn to work safely with a roofer's crane, but after this training you also do it faster and more efficiently.
