Off-road four wheel drive
Where can you take a 4WD? OK. Better question: where can you take a 4WD and then bring it back again? What trouble can you get into, and how do you get out of it? How do you prevent yourself getting into trouble? These questions and many more are covered in Tocal’s two-day 4x4 training course.
Chainsaw – Operate a pole saw
When a chainsaw is too big to carry up a ladder, and too dangerous to use while on the ladder, a pole saw is exactly the tool you need. But what sort of pole saw? And how do you use it safely? Tocal’s one-day course can help you get the most out of this useful tool.
