CQM-01 | 5-DAY TRAINING PROGRAM
Maintenance & Repair of Quarry Heavy Equipment
Program Overview
A practical, field-oriented program covering the maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of the heavy mobile and fixed equipment used in quarry and mining operations, including excavators, wheel loaders, haul trucks, crushers, and conveyor systems.
Target Audience
Maintenance engineers, mechanical technicians, plant/quarry supervisors, and equipment reliability staff.
Learning Objectives
● Identify the major systems of quarry heavy equipment (hydraulic, powertrain, undercarriage, electrical)
● Apply structured troubleshooting methods to reduce equipment downtime
● Plan preventive maintenance schedules based on OEM and condition data
● Manage spare parts, lubrication, and component life-cycle costs
● Apply safe work practices during repair and field maintenance activities
5-Day Program Outline
