Watertown, SD (June 14, 2016) — To keep mechanics and service technicians up-to-date on the latest Terex® equipment technologies and equipment advancements, Terex Utilities hosted its annual Service School on June 7-9, 2016, in Watertown, S.D. At this year’s event, the Terex Service Department hosted 59 people, representing 38 utility companies. Attendees came from as far away as Australia, China and New Zealand to participate.
The 2016 Service School offered attendees the opportunity to learn tips, tricks and techniques on utility trucks and support equipment from experienced Terex Support instructors. During the 3-day event, participants rotated through a series of stations that incorporated Terex utility equipment and training aids to educate attendees on the most current maintenance, troubleshooting and repair procedures for the company’s digger derricks and aerial devices.
Vlasman added, “Our highly experienced staff of instructors ranged from field service technicians, engineers and national service technicians who have over 300 years of experience collectively and an average tenure of 21 years with Terex.”
For mechanics and service technicians not able to attend the Watertown event, Terex Utilities will host Service Schools around the country throughout the year. In addition to these in-person training events, customers can request customized training at their own facilities or take advantage of Terex Utilities’ online training university.
