WHAT DOES THIS DUMPER TRAINING COVER?

A dumper is used to transport bulk materials such as soil, gravel, sand or other building materials. The material is tipped into the skip by an excavator or wheel loader.

You tip the skip by hydraulically raising it at the front. Before getting started with this powerful machine, thorough training is recommended.

As a driver, you are responsible not only for your own safety but also for that of your colleagues on the site.

Besides safety, your feel for the machine is essential for fast and precise work. And you only get 'the feel' by practising a lot!

Experienced or not? Every dumper operator is welcome in this training! Those who pass then receive their official certificate!

As an experienced driver, you can also opt for our new 1-hour dumper competence test.

You not only learn to work safely with a dumper, but after this training you also do it faster and more efficiently.
