Stump Grinder Integrated Training & Assessment
(Internal assessment leads to a LANTRA level 2 certificate)
Learn to use this powerful machine safely and expertly with our specialist one-day course.
Stump grinders remove tree stumps by literally chipping away at them - usually with a cutting wheel, as a result, they can be dangerous tools if used incorrectly or without adequate training. Our course will teach you the appropriate techniques and safety guidelines.
It's ideal if you work in the arboriculture, forestry, horticulture, landscaping or grounds maintenance industries.
This is a hands-on course that delivers both practical skills and health and safety guidance as well as demonstrating that you and your employer have completed sufficient training to meet the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER).
