Catalog description

This course is restricted to students presently studying under the direction and oversight of an approved apprenticeship program, working in partnership with Columbus State Community College. The crane major apprentice must follow the upgrade description of prerequisites but will only need a minimum of 120 hours of practical seat time. This course discusses the hydraulic power system, preventive maintenance, and the safe operation of Hydraulic Cranes. Apprentices must pass a simulated CCO practical test and a TSP. Apprentices who wish to pass the crane upgrade but are not a crane major will still be required to operate hydraulic cranes a minimum of 160 hours at the training center.
