The Hydraulics workshop is a comprehensive, highly practical and interactive five-day course. You will have an opportunity to discuss Hydraulic Systems construction, design-applications, operations, maintenance, and management issues and be provided with the most up-to-date information and Best Practice in dealing with the subject. Towards the end of the workshop, you will have developed the skills and ability to recognise and solve hydraulic problems in a structured and confident manner.

• Analyze and explain the purpose of hydraulics
• Examine and describe how mobile hydraulic systems and components operate
• Demonstrate the ability to properly disassemble and reassemble hydraulic components
• Prepare written records of repairs and lab activities including the evaluation of hydraulic components used in class
• Use accepted industry tools and procedures to diagnose problems and assess the serviceability of hydraulic systems
• Demonstrate the ability to read and understand International Organization for Standardization (ISO) hydraulic schematics
• Evaluate and perform required maintenance on mobile hydraulic systems.

• Operation, maintenance, inspection & repair managers, supervisors & engineers
• Plant engineers
• Plant operations and maintenance personnel
• Mechanical engineers and technicians
• Design engineers, Consulting engineers
• Process technicians
