MEWP Ticket

[samthornton1990]

Looking at doing my MEWP ticket with chainsaw as I want to go onto Utility work.

 

Now can I do a combined course? Or do I have to do the MEWP ticket then the MEWP with a chainsaw?

 

Also does anyone know of any running in the Yorkshire area?

 

Just spoken to TFK and they haven't got any running and there's no waiting list so that's a no go at the moment.

 

Thanks

Hi Sam,

 

In "old money", if you've got CS39 you don't need CS47 but you do need a MEWP ticket. Most people suggest IPAF for this as it's accepted by all, generally speaking, including on construction sites where training by other organisations might be challenged (that said often training with Lantra, for instance, is more relevant to tree work activities.)

 

Hope this helps.

Ah sound I'll look into that.

 

Paul, I have to do both, fountains say that you have to have the Chainsaw with MEWP to be able to work on the lines.
