MANUALS:
Each student will receive a manual for the course being taught, along with other hand – outs. These manuals contain between 100 and 250 pages (depending on the course being taught) of quality illustrated crane safety material, which has been time proven in the classroom or for self study. We incorporate load charts and load chart exercises for the crane(s) you have on your site.
