It’s a great day when you get to work with some of the best customers and the best cranes in the Edmonton and area marketplace. Training operators to be even safer in our humble opinion is as good as it gets. There are choices to be sure, some are very low priced training companies that are simply giving what OHS is suggesting, we don’t for a minute believe that. In fact we go above and well beyond, we bring our 24 years of knuckle boom crane experience to your doorstep. Yes we are more, but you get “from the factory” information, not some stuff that was picked up here and there. Propane companies realize the capability of knuckle boom cranes
Reading and Understanding Crane Load Charts
I recently posted a brief summary on how to read load charts on Linkedin. You can see it HERE. However I did not go into great detail on how to read knuckle boom crane load charts, I simply went over the “other” information that they provided. So ill go into greater detail, but still in short form here so that that there is greater clarity. Because we specialize in light duty knuckle crane training, the information applies directly to that type of crane. The one dimension load chart above shows the following information: Crane model – 210.5 or 21.5 Meter/tonne rated crane NOT a 21-Ton crane Shows the capacity of the crane in both metric and imperial capacities When you

There comes a time when handing the keys of a $150,000 and up oilfield service truck has to send shivers down the spine of owner who had to hire based on availability. We don’t just ask you to bring a 4′ level to the training, what for? There is NO way you can level any picker truck unless the ground is flat. How many times I hear this makes it even more clear, there are those teaching this program who have no idea what they are doing. When you have one set of outriggers, how do you expect to have a level vehicle? it’s much like letting most of the air out of the driver side tires and expecting the
Does Your Company Need Crane Training?
I get asked this question many times over and the answer hasn’t changed. There are (at the time of this update), no Provincial requirements that mandate your company to take the awareness program we provide. All knuckle boom instruction is voluntary only. If you are told by anyone who sells cranes that you are required to have training of any sort (particularity in Saskatchewan), I would ask them to provide you with Provincially mandated proof! I get someone wants to sell you a training program, we will never “Lie” to you or mis-lead you in any way. You either want the program as part of your pro-active COR or safety recognition program, or you don’t. Suffice it to say, good
1-Day Light Duty Oilfield Picker Certification
Our one-day light duty oilfield picker certification training course covers all sizes of light duty cranes and boom trucks that do NOT fall under the provincial apprenticeship program for Cranes and Hoisting Equipment Operator. Basically if your crane can’t lift 8-tons up close on the load chart, our training will work for your compliance. See our FAQ page for more details or click HERE for all of the details. Edmonton picker training is something we have been doing for the past 8 years and many of our customers keep coming back as our program has evolved over that time to reflect changes from CSA.
