Front-End Loader Operation - Simulator Approach

Description

Learning the basic techniques related to the operation of a front-end loader in a mining environment in carrying out of learning scenarios on a simulator.

Objectives

  • Practice the front-end loader's operation techniques on a simulator
    • Situate oneself within the simulator operator's station and environment
    • Achieve the performance criteria established for different scenarios related to the operation of a front-end loader in a mining environment

Content Overview

  • Front-end loader simulator operator's station: LCD display, buttons, indicators, contol and command systems, security equipment, etc.
  • Technical data: characteristics, capabilities, limitations, uses, risks and dangers, warning and caution labels, effective modes of operation, etc.
  • Points of consideration related to the simulated operation of a front-end loader: inspection of the machine, starting procedure, security (machine and environment), good practices, standards, modes of communication and shutdown procedure, etc.
