Pedestrian or Rider-Operated Pallet Truck Training (A1 – A2)
Serving South Wales & South West England
Pedestrian and Rider-Operated pallet trucks may look simple, yet accidents still happen when loads run heavy, aisles grow busy and deadlines bite. I offer Pedestrian pallet truck training (A1) and Rider-Operated pallet truck training (A2) on your own equipment, so operators master safe low-level handling without leaving site.
Training is led by me, Povilas – an AITT (Cat. 1) qualified instructor with hands-on warehouse experience and a keen eye for workplace safety. Every course follows the Accrediting Bodies Association for Workplace Transport & Association of Industrial Truck Trainers syllabuses, as well as the advice in the L117 ACOP for Rider-Operated forklift truck.
