The GWO Service Lift User Module is aimed at personnel working on wind turbine generators where the use of service lifts is required. During the training, participants gain insight into the risks and hazards associated with lift operations in the wind industry and learn how to control and mitigate these through safe working practices, correct procedures and effective communication.
Evacuation from the lift is demonstrated by the instructor in accordance with the GWO Lift Training Standard guidelines. Participants do not practise evacuation during this module. If you wish to perform and practise lift evacuation yourself, please refer to the GWO Service Lift User (SLU) Advanced Training.
Our training facilities are equipped with three different types of service lifts: two cable guided models and one ladder guided model. Together, these represent the vast majority of lift systems used in the onshore wind industry.
This module involves physical activities such as manual handling, climbing in the service lift, ladder climbing and working in confined spaces. Prior to attending the course, participants are required to sign a medical declaration on site.
Participants must bring:
- Valid ID/proof of identity
- Weather-appropriate clothing for indoor and outdoor activities
- Comfortable, durable clothing suitable for physical tasks (e.g., long sleeves and trousers)
- All necessary PPE will be provided during the course
