I`m comming up to do my 1st lot of refreshers.I train on Counterbalance and Reach truck.As you may know by now i`m a in-house instructor.
So i`m planning on 1 day for each truck(3 trainees) do you think this is too long ?
If a driver can drive both trucks can i refresh him on just the one truck to cover both.
Will i have to test on both with theory and practical tests.
Cant see much info about this in my manuals.I`ve got a good idea but would like a second opinion.
Thanks....
