Overhead crane and rigger training

Anyone who will be working with a crane or hooking must have documented safety training. This applies to both future crane operators, hookers and workers responsible for load handling.

G11 provides basic theory for all hooker and crane operator training, and the G4 course provides a thorough introduction to using a crane.

The course gives you:

• Basic HSE and regulations
• Insight into crane types, structure and areas of application
• Proper use of slings and lifting equipment (sling and hooker course)
• Understanding accidents, risk assessment and safe behavior
• Practical training in overhead cranes and goods handling

The course is suitable for:

• Future crane operators and hookers
• Supervisors and professionals responsible for lifting operations
• Anyone who will be involved in load handling in construction, industry or a workshop environment

For those of you who later want to build on your expertise, we offer a separate extension course in fixed-mounted hydraulic cranes (G20).

Certificate of Competence: G11 - Lifting Equipment

The purpose of the course is to give hookers and future crane operators a thorough theoretical introduction to the use of cranes. The theory course is fundamental to all crane operator training.

This course covers modules 1.1 and 2.3.

In the course we review:

• Basic HSE
• Requirements for hookers/crane operators
• Slings and lifting equipment
• Accidents, construction and operation
• Inspection, reporting and maintenance
• Use and safety regulations.

Once the theory has been passed, practical training must be carried out, which can be carried out at SSGR.

A certificate of competence is issued when the theory and practice have been passed.

Certificate of Competence: G4 - Bridge and overhead crane

The course gives future overhead crane operators a thorough introduction to the use of overhead cranes.

The training focuses on safety and correct attitudes towards lifting operations with a crane.

The course covers the following modules:

• Module 1 - Safety, responsibility and control (theory)
• Module 2.3 - Sling and signal transmitter (theory)
• Module 2.7 - Bridge and overhead crane (theory)
• Module 3.7 - Basic practical use of overhead crane
• Module 4.7 - When the theory is passed, an in-depth practical training in overhead cranes will be carried out

A certificate of competence is issued when the theory and practical driving are passed.

• Course materials, compendiums and practice exercises are included.
• The exam consists of a theoretical and practical test.
• Courses at our head office in Lindeberg include lunch.
