Cherry Picker

Cherry pickers are often used for maintenance, construction, and cleaning. They feature articulated or telescopic booms, reaching heights often exceeding 85 feet. Key benefits include increased safety over ladders, rapid deployment, and versatility across terrains. Operation typically requires specialised training and they require regular maintenance to ensure safety.

Courses we offer

1B - Static boom
3B - Mobile boom

Course Details

The Cherry Picker courses we offer are aimed at operators with different levels of ability. We are able to cater for both novice and experienced handlers. We also offer conversion and refresher courses.

This can vary depending on the experience level and the number of candidates completing the course. For a novice with no prior experience, a typical course can last around 1-2 days, and for the more experienced handler, courses including the conversion course can be completed within the same day. A refresher course can be completed on the same day, aslong as the candidate has an in-date certificate within the previous 5 years

This will depend on what level of experience the candidates have already reached. The list below explains what course is best suited to each candidate;

Novice course - The novice course is designed for candidates who have had no previous experience on this equipment

Experienced course - The experienced course is designed for candidates who have previous experience on this type of equipment but cannot provide evidence of a previous accredited training certificate

Conversion course - The conversion course is designed for the candidate who has previous experience on a similar piece of equipment
Refresher course - The refresher course is designed for candidates wishing to extend their current certificate (Handlers must have an in-date certificate within the previous 5 years)
