IPAF | PAV (Push Around Verticals)

COURSE INTRODUCTION

IPAF is renowned as the standard when it comes to powered access. This course aims to provide the knowledge and skills required to operate Push Around Vertical platforms.

"IPAF has introduced this course in response to market developments and the need for appropriate training on this new type of machine. Push Around Verticals are essentially small, simple static vertical machines. However, unlike Static Verticals (IPAF category 1a), they have no mechanical drive and are physically pushed around." IPAF | News
