Australian Pump<\/u><\/strong><\/a> provided a free training program for operators based on its \u201cClass A Safety Operator\u201d training modules.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a great opportunity to trail the revised training course that brings it in line with the new Australian Standards AS\/NZS:4233 for Class A machines,\u201d said Hamish Lorenz, Aussie Pump\u2019s Operations Manager. \u201cThe operators were trained in hazard identification, controlling risks and safe working procedures,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The course also covered an overview of how the entire positive displacement pump, a \u201cBig Berty\u201d Bertolini triplex pump, operates.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat Bertolini pump is the heart of the system, providing reliable, trouble-free high pressure,\u201d said Lorenz. \u00a0Also covered was the effective use of Personal Protection Equipment and the detailed procedures for daily checks on the equipment to identify potential issues before they become dangerous. Training included comprehensive operator manuals, was well as practical and classroom training.<\/p>\n
