Course Overview
This course is designed for operators with prior experience, or those who already hold certification in chainsaw maintenance and crosscutting; novice operators may require further training.
One-day training combines hands-on practical instruction with essential health and safety guidance. It also provides evidence that you and your employer have undertaken appropriate training to comply with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER). Topics covered include safety features, maintenance of the chain, guide bar and engine, pre-use checks, assessment of the work area, and pruning saw checks.
Candidates should have their own equipment and PPE compliant with current CE/EN standards. If this presents a problem, please let us know well in advance of the training so suitable arrangements can be made ensuring the equipment is available.
