Jimmi Nolan Say hello to our 8 (not so) little friends:
This ‘little crane that could’ has bred more crane operators in its long history than most cranes in the training industry. It’s honest and has been involved in crane training for over 15 years. Many (in particular QLD Licence holders) have been behind the sticks of this little beast.
Our director Matt’s baby – a traditional ‘Aussie’ crane that was part of the revolution of ‘Pick & Carry’ cranes. With a smaller capacity than modern 20-25T frannas, this little beauty is a rocket ship with a lighter road weight, tighter articulation and agility in and around sites. Makes it the perfect platform for candidates to start out on non-slew cranes.
Used in our CN, C6, RB, RI & RA training, this is the ‘go to’ crane when anything has to be lifted in the yard.
This manoeuvrable and versatile rough terrain crane will give the experience you need to go from the road to the most tricky on site ground conditions. This crane is a very SOLID lifter, and fitted with technology well before its time.
Used in our DG, C2, C6, RB, RI training, this was the crane that started it all for OTJT before the major fleet expansion.
A very different piece of lifting machinery to its all-terrain counterparts, this 50 tonne beauty has considerations while operating such as generally larger footprint and jib surface areas. It also bears the challenges of non-level ground surfaces with the lack of outriggers used on all-terrains.
Used in our C6 & RI training, this crane is a handful, and provides second to none practical experience for our C6 candidates.
Affectionately known by the locals as ‘Baby Hulk’, the pride of the training yard stands at 45m and offers unspoilt views in every direction, from the beach to the Gold Coast hinterland towering over the M1.
Used in our CT, RB, RI & RA training, this crane with its 50m jib configuration has access to every inch of OTJT yard, and flies the flag for our Helensvale campus.
The type of tower crane you’ll find on smaller construction sites, they’re fast and agile and operated via remote control. While traditionally not a common crane particularly QLD, they have definitely become more common with a shift to low & mid rise projects throughout Australia.
Fun fact: Active Crane Hire in Sydney had 40 HD40’s in action during the construction of the Sydney Olympic Games.
Used in our CT, CS, RB, RI & RA training, OTJT is unique in having both CT & CS cranes available for crane licence training & assessment onsite.
As we always say at On the Job Training, you can’t replace years of experience with a short form course in the training yard. What we can do is provide you with the best possible learning experience to ensure you’re as prepared as possible to whatever your future work life throws at you.
Through ‘hands on’ operating experience with our fleet of cranes, coupled with e-learning support we believe we set the industry benchmark in crane licence training. Give us a call on 07 3807 6061, drop a message below or talk to us on live chat now to learn more.
The Queensland Government only requires you to train on one of the many types of cranes you’re allowed to operate holding a Slewing Mobile Crane C6 Licence. For us, this inadequately prepares you as being ‘job ready’. We offer the ability to operate as many of 6 of these mobile cranes – check out our video with what some of students and trainers had to say about this industry leading course.
The C6 slewing mobile crane licence also encompasses CN class non-slewing cranes. If you train exclusively on a 25t truck mount slew crane, are you ready to jump in the seat of a 14T franna non-slew crane? Our director Matt discusses the intricacies of a franna with King Duffy, our in house franna expert.
