RIIHAN311F – Conduct Operations with an Integrated Tool Carrier

Take control. Handle the load. Keep the operation moving.

Ready to operate a powerful, versatile machine built for demanding mine-site conditions?

The RIIHAN311F Conduct Operations with an Integrated Tool Carrier course gives you the practical skills and safety knowledge required to operate an integrated tool carrier safely and efficiently in site-based workplaces.

Integrated tool carriers are designed to lift, transport and position heavy loads across mining and resource operations. This nationally recognised unit helps you build the machine control, load-management skills and workplace awareness needed to perform confidently in challenging operating environments.

What You’ll Learn

This practical, hands-on course will teach you how to:

  • Plan and prepare for integrated tool carrier operations
  • Interpret work instructions and equipment documentation
  • Identify hazards and implement effective risk controls
  • Conduct pre-start and operational equipment checks
  • Assess ground, terrain and workplace conditions
  • Identify load weight and equipment capacity limits
  • Secure, stabilise and manage loads safely
  • Lift, carry, transport and position loads
  • Manage changes to the load’s centre of gravity
  • Operate safely across varying terrain
  • Communicate using hand signals, audible signals and radios
  • Monitor gauges, indicators and equipment alarms
  • Identify and report common equipment faults
  • Respond to changing conditions and emergencies
  • Shut down, secure and complete operator maintenance activities

You will develop the skills needed to keep the machine stable, control the load and coordinate safely with other operators and site personnel.

Who Should Enrol?

This course is ideal for people working or looking to expand their operating skills in:

  • Coal mining operations
  • Metalliferous mining
  • Underground and surface mining environments
  • Resource-processing operations
  • Materials handling and production roles
  • Mine-site maintenance and support activities
  • Mobile plant and heavy equipment operations

Versatility That Carries Serious Weight

Operating an integrated tool carrier takes more than driving and lifting. It requires concentration, clear communication and a strong understanding of equipment capacity, stability and load movement.

Our experienced trainers deliver practical, workplace-focused training designed to help you develop safe operating habits, improve your machine control and confidently manage heavy loads in real site conditions.

SKILLS RECOGNITION

Credit Transfer is available for unit of competency RIIHAN311F Conduct operations with integrated tool carrier. Credit Transfer is a process that grants credit for Units of Competency previously achieved through formal and accredited training. To obtain Credit Transfer for individual units of competency that have been completed previously, students must provide the enrolling officer with official transcripts for Units of Competency achieved within a nationally recognised qualification at the time of enrolment. These transcripts will be verified and applied where relevant.

Skills Recognition, commonly referred to as Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), is an assessment process that evaluates an individual’s formal, non-formal, and informal learning to determine the extent to which the individual has met the competency standards.

ENROL

All students must complete an enrolment. You will receive further information from Lexmar Training to begin your enrolment process.

As part of the enrolment, students maybe required to undertake a Language, Literacy, Numeracy and Digital (LLND) Skills Assessment. This assessment helps determine your suitability for the program and ensures that your current skill levels align with the unit requirements.

Submitting an enrolment does not guarantee a place in the program. Lexmar Training carefully reviews each application to ensure students are placed into units where they are most likely to succeed.

Additional information and documentation may be required to process applications, including:

  • Proof of identification (drivers’ licence, passport, photo ID card)
