Front-End Loader Training Course
Front end loader training is one of the heavy equipment operator training courses available online. Front-end loaders are purpose built for moving solid materials. Often referred to as bucket loaders or wheel loaders, front-end loaders are efficient at moving large volumes of materials with the bucket attached. Front-end loaders also can have other attachments for different uses, such as forks for moving pallets and grapples for securing and moving other larger items such as logs or rocks.
