Identifying damaged parts
Inspection and maintenance procedures
Understanding colour-coding systems
Proper sling storage techniques
Safe and effective use of slings
Different methods of slinging
Using charts to determine proper lifting capacity
Optimal angles for lifting operations

Our Slinging and Lifting Training program provides operators with the necessary skills to safely and accurately sling loads during lifting operations.
