IPAF PAV (Push Around Vertical) Training

This IPAF course is a half day course aimed at operators of Push Around Verticals; these are small static vertical machines without drive also known as PAV’s. Unlike Static Verticals (IPAF category 1a), they do not have mechanical drive and are physically pushed around. They are typically used at low levels in areas such as warehousing, construction and manufacturing environments.

IPAF Course Detail

The IPAF PAV course covers a range of topics relating to the safe operation of PAVs, as well as guidance for those who use, supervise, or manage work where PAVs are required. The course includes both theory and practical sessions covering safe operating methods and hazards.

Course topics include:

• Legislation and guidance
• Safe operating methods
• Hazards
• Pre use and post use inspections.
• Practical training and assessment as well as post-theory test

Note:- If you have a valid licence with Static Vertical (1a) or Mobile Vertical (3a), you will only require familiarisation on the PAV machine, which would negate the need to do this course, and this should be recorded in your IPAF log book.
