February 3, 2006—Bucket trucks can make working at high elevations easier; however, they can also put workers and passers-by in danger if they are not operated safely, notes Coastal, a leading training product publisher. The company has introduced a new training program, Bucket Trucks: Extending Your Reach, designed to help bucket truck operators work safely.
According to Coastal, it covers operator training, pre-trip inspections, PPE, electrical hazards and maintenance.
Bucket Trucks: Extending Your Reach is currently available on video. DVD format coming soon. For a free preview, or to order, visit the Coastal Web site.
