This assessment gives operators the basic principles of Lift Trucks enabling them to realise the possible hazards due to location, surface conditions, instability, the machine in use, the loads moved, and take the necessary safety precautions and gives experience in difficult working situations.
To successfully pass the assessment the operator must be able to:
The object of surface dressing is to create a stable mosaic of chippings securely attached to the road surface.
This is achieved by spraying the correct amount of bitumen onto the road surface followed by the appropriate amount of the correct size of chippings according to the softness of the road surface.
To successfully pass the assessment the operator must be able to:
