Powered Pruner training - 1 day Lantra CLMC56R

As with general chainsaw training, Powered Pruner training covers a mix of maintenance and practical skills. Candidates who already hold CS30.1 (NPTC Chainsaw Maintenance Cert.) only need to be assessed on 'On-site preparation and Use of the Polesaw'. For candidates without a Chainsaw Certificate, the first half of the course covers generic risks, safety, engine maintenance, sharpening etc. The second half of the course covers site safety, safe working distances, pre-start checks and various pruning cuts.

Powered Pole Pruner Training and Certification is a requirement of PUWER. Powered Pole Pruners are often referred to as Polesaws

The assessment is divided into 2 compulsory parts:

• Part 48.1 Maintenance of the Powered pole pruner
• Unit 48.2 On-site preparation and basic pruning

Candidates must successfully achieve all Assessment Activities unless otherwise specified.

NB. Candidates who have already achieved CS30.1 will not be required to undertake part 48.1.
