Hello

 

Very new to this, not sure how it all works.

Does anyone know anything about a taster day in north yorkshire?

Its something Phil lowe of lowe maintenance is doing in yorkshire? (somewhere!) try his website?

Hi D

 

From what I remember of my assessment it was stripping a saw, cleaning it, sharpening it and answering a few basic questions such as the pitch of the chain and two-stroke mixtures. There shouldn't be any trick questions.. The cross cutting was literally cutting the end off a log a couple of times. I'd recommend reading through an assessment schedule.

 

Good luck

The assessor guidance states that a minimum of 10 cross cuts and a minimum of 1 boring cut MUST be made.

You should have a copy of the assessor schedule, and if you note #14 it states that you may take a lantra work book or any other publication but NOT the schedule.

We have both 550 and 560 and have had no problems off either.

Hi all, I have just carried out some training with two providers one in County Durham and one in North Yorkshire.

Phil Lowe (Lowe Maintenance) in Yorkhire, runs great climbing courses and John Storey at Durham (Borders Training Ltd)
