Course Overview
Equip Global’s 5 day AGL Installation and Maintenance provides an in-depth
overview of various AGL installation, operation and maintenance aspects,
procedures, tools, equipment and practices. It provides an extensive
understanding of product, operation and maintenance safety. It also helps
establish practical maintenance processes related to product/systems (in terms
of spare parts, tools, frequency, etc).
After attending this AGL installation and maintenance workshop, you will
establish a typical state-of-the-art maintenance structure depending on the
installed base including its functional description. It helps define the roles and
responsibilities of each member of the AGL maintenance team (including the
competency management) and builds awareness of Health & Safety (H&S) cases,
to establish a professional H&S plan.
Key Benefits of Attending
