Remote Control Mowers

Remote Control Mowers

Remote controlled mowers are becoming more popular amongst operators who need to cut grass and vegetation in hard to reach areas. Using a remote controlled machine allows the operator to stay at a safe distance whilst the machine does the job! 

High quality training on maintenance and use can help keep operators and bystanders safe. The aim of our Remote Control Mower course is to provide candidates with an insight into safety awareness and risk assessment in order to reduce the likelihood of accidents occurring.

Who is it for?

Our training course will suit anyone who is required to use remote control mowers as part of their work. Training is suitable for novices or those requiring a refresher. Course duration is expected to be 1-day, but those with no experience of mowers or remote control machinery may require more time.
