Snowplow – One Person Plowing
Time constraints coupled with poor visibility and messy weather can make One Person Plowing a very difficult job. Many are out there without the required skill or confidence to run without a wingman. It is vital that you prepare your operators with a comprehensive training package that teaches them to be more relaxed, focused and skilled – thereby producing excellent results on the first pass.
Who Should Attend
Operators who are converting from using a wing-man to one person plowing.
