The PASMA Cantilever Towers for Users course will equip you with the specialist knowledge you need to work safely with cantilever towers. Using a combination of theory and practical work, this course builds on your existing tower knowledge (delegates must hold a current PASMA Towers for Users card) by introducing new techniques, such as the use of ballast to balance the tower.

You’ll also be introduced to new enabling components, such as cantilever frames and frame links. Plus, you’ll learn about the different safe working load capabilities of this type of tower.

The course is delivered through a combination of classroom-based tutorials and practical assignments. Delegates will be assessed through a mixture of theory and practical tests.

Agenda:

Work at height responsibilities of employers, employees and suppliers
Standards affecting the manufacture and use of cantilever towers
Where to find crucial safety information
When it’s safe to use a cantilever tower, and when it’s not

Delegates must pass the theory test before undertaking the practical element of the course.

Delegates must hold a current PASMA Towers for Users qualification.

This course is for all delegates responsible for the assembly, use, dismantling, alteration, moving, and inspection of cantilever tower structures.

Since the safe use of mobile access towers requires that you consult safety notices and read and thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s instruction manual, literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any tower user.

Similarly, since the assembly and use of mobile access towers can be physically demanding, users should be physically fit and healthy. Delegates should generally not have problems with eyesight or hearing, heart disease, high blood pressure, epilepsy, fear of heights, vertigo, giddiness, difficulty with balance, impaired limb function, alcohol or drug dependence, including prescribed drugs or psychiatric illness.

Upon successful completion of the course and registration with PASMA, delegates will be provided with their certification number that can be used to access their digital PASMA card via PASMA’s Towersure app.

The Towersure app is free to download on Apple iOS and Android devices. Our Trainers will talk you through this process at the start of your PASMA course.

If a physical PASMA card is required, these must be arranged with the training department before the course start date. An additional charge applies.
