The training will also cover topics such as pre-operational checks, safe loading and unloading, and emergency procedures. Participants will have the opportunity to practice these skills in a controlled environment under the guidance of experienced instructors.

The next part of the course will focus on operating the 360 excavator in various scenarios, such as digging, loading, and backfilling. Participants will learn how to properly position the machine, use the different attachments, and handle different types of soil and terrain. The training will also cover safety measures and best practices to prevent accidents and injuries.
