Through a combination of classroom instruction and hands-on practice, trainees gain confidence and competence, ensuring they’re prepared to operate dumper trucks on any job site.

Introduction to Dumpers

In our Introduction to Dumpers module, you’ll learn the key concepts related to operating forward tipping dumpers, including their basic mechanics and functionality. This section is essential for beginners, but it also serves as a refresher for experienced dumper operators. The course covers the different types of dumpers, such as front-tipping and rear-tipping dumpers, and explains the roles they play on construction sites. By the end of this module, you’ll have a solid understanding of dumper trucks and their purpose.

Dumper Safety Procedures

Safety is a cornerstone of our training at Vally Plant Training, and the Dumper Safety Procedures module is designed to teach you how to prevent accidents on-site. From pre-operation checks to safe loading techniques, this section covers everything you need to know about minimising risks. Our Stroud instructors emphasise real-world safety practices to ensure that you not only meet but exceed industry safety standards.

Dumper Operation Basics

Our Dumper Operation Basics module is perfect for anyone looking to get hands-on experience in dumper operation. You’ll be trained on the essential functions of a dumper truck, including starting, stopping, manoeuvring, and controlling the vehicle. Our training site on your site in Stroud offers a realistic environment where you can practice your skills under the supervision of experienced instructors.

Load Handling and Dumping Techniques

Effective Load Handling and Dumping Techniques are critical for efficient dumper operation.

Our instructors in Stroud will guide you through best practices to prevent tipping, spillage, and other common issues faced during dumper operation.

Site Safety and Hazard Awareness

The Site Safety and Hazard Awareness module focuses on ensuring you are prepared to recognise and handle potential hazards on any job site. Dumpers operate in environments with various risks, and it’s important to stay aware of your surroundings while working. Our Stroud instructors teach the critical skills needed to assess hazards, such as uneven ground, steep inclines, and the presence of other workers.

Maintenance and Inspections

Understanding how to perform regular Maintenance and Inspections on your dumper truck is vital to maintaining its performance and safety. This module covers basic maintenance tasks such as checking oil levels, inspecting tires, and ensuring all safety features are in proper working order. By performing regular maintenance, operators can reduce downtime and prevent costly repairs.
