Chainsaw – Trim and cut felled trees (Level 1 chainsaw operation)

NSW Quad Bike Safety Improvement Program

Check the quad bike. Is it safe? Do you know what to look for? Then ride the quad bike. Do you know its limitations? What you can and can’t do on it? And when you get back safely, do you have a procedure for shutting it down and making sure it’s ready to go next time you need it? Come to Tocal’s one-day course. We’ll get you sorted.

Operate Side by Side Utility Vehicles

Safer than a quad bike, but still carrying its own risks, the side by side is becoming the “go to” vehicle for many jobs on the farm. This one-day course at Tocal will help you get the most from your side by side.

Operate Tractors

The better you know how to operate and maintain a tractor, the safer and more productive your farm will be. Learn about how to set up tractors for your business, become familiar with the controls of tractors, and learn how tractors affect biosecurity.

Operate farm motor bikes (2 wheel)

Sometimes, using a motorbike on the farm is smarter and safer than a quad or a side-by-side. This one-day Tocal course covers you from basic maintenance through to advanced riding techniques in rough terrain.

Chainsaw – Operate a pole saw
