Final Adminstration & Candidate Feedback
​
Distinction is made between different types of attachment, capacity of the loader, remote controlled loaders and various specialist applications (e.g. static mount, etc). Categories are in place due to the individual skill requirements needed to operate these types of loader crane safely and efficiently.
​
For example, if an operator is trained and certificated in the use of only a hoist attachment (category 2), they should not be permitted to use other attachments until conversion training has been undertaken. Likewise, a certificated operator who is trained on the use of lorry loaders with a capacity of up to 20tm, is not to use a lorry loader with a capacity greater than 20tm, as conversion training will first be required.
