Overview

The abrasive wheels training course from H&W Training is suitable for farmers, managers, fitters, foremen and other workers that use bench mounted abrasive wheels or petrol powered saws. The duration of the course largely depends on the number of categories you wish to be trained in and your level of experience. For example, a novice operator may require 3 days of training to cover all 3 categories, whereas an experienced operator without prior formal evidence may only require 2, possibly even 1 days training.
