Excavator 360 Training

The Excavator 360 is the main stay of most construction and civils sites, this equipment can be achieved in the above or below 10 tonne category and with countless attachments, buckets and boom configurations.

During the Excavator 360 training course, based at our training facility in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, the potential operators will be taught pre-start checks, the correct identification and operation of all types of quick hitches, the correct methods and considerations when digging a variety of excavations and soil stability and soil placement.

The correct method of dumper loading and the communication required will also be taught. On completion the operator will be formally assessed excavating trenches to specification, loading and unloading dumpers/dump trucks, forming benches/platforms and the safe travel and negotiation of slopes.

Course durations and costs can be amended depending on the candidates’ experience.

A pre-requisite for this course is the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) test for operatives which can be completed at a local Pearson Vue Centre or can be arranged by XRE.
