Course Overview

TLILIC0024 – Licence to Operate a Vehicle Loading Crane (Capacity 10 Metre Tonnes and Above) gives participants the practical skills and knowledge to safely operate a vehicle-mounted loading crane in a range of workplace environments. The course covers how to plan lifts, read and apply load charts, deploy outriggers and stabilisers, assess ground conditions, use correct signals and communication methods, lift and transfer loads safely, and carry out shutdown and securing procedures.
A vehicle loading crane is a crane that is mounted on a vehicle and used for the principal purpose of loading and unloading that vehicle. This course applies to slewing vehicle loading cranes with a Maximum Rated Capacity (MRC) of 10 metre tonnes or more, and is the unit required to apply for the Vehicle Loading Crane (CV) High Risk Work Licence.
Training is delivered by experienced industry trainers at our facility or on-site across Western Australia. On successful completion of training and assessment, participants can apply to WorkSafe WA for their High Risk Work Licence in the CV class.
