In the field, we all want performance; gear that runs hard, fast turnarounds, zero downtime. But if your crew isn’t safe, none of that sticks. Hydraulics, when ignored, don’t just cause breakdowns—they can wreck lives and shut down operations in a blink.

We’ve seen it firsthand. Over 20+ years working across mining, ag, and construction, APT has trained 7,000+ workers and delivered 2,500+ qualifications. Safety’s not a checklist for us. It’s the foundation of everything we do.

The Danger Is in the Pressure

Hydraulics don’t scream when something’s wrong. They hum along quietly—until a burst hose or pinhole leak throws a grenade into your shift.

A pinhole can eject fluid at 600+ feet per second. That’s enough to pierce skin and inject oil into a bloodstream. The result? Infection, surgery, even amputation. And that’s just one risk.

Untrained eyes miss the signs. “It looked fine at start-up” doesn’t cut it when someone’s injured or the site’s shut down. Most of the time, it takes a serious near miss before better training gets a look-in. We’d rather help you beat it to the punch.

What Smart Sites Do Differently

The best crews don’t rely on luck. They:

• Understand the systems they use
• Spot risks before they become problems
• Act with confidence when something goes wrong
  

That’s where we come in.

APT delivers hands-on hydraulic safety training that fits your crew, your site, and your schedule. We teach more than just “what to do” — we drill into the “why it matters.”

Your crew will learn:

• How to prevent leaks, blowouts, and hose failures
• Daily checks that actually catch issues
• Safe routing, pressure handling, and emergency response
• What not to do when a system faults out
  

Training That Fits the Tools, Not the Textbook

Our programs run on-site, or in flexible formats to fit around your shifts. Every lesson is grounded in real-world scenarios—because we’ve lived them.

Better Training Means Safer Crews and Smarter Projects
When teams understand hydraulics from the inside out, everything lifts:

• Downtime drops
• Equipment lasts longer
• Near misses go down
  Confidence goes up
  

Don’t let old habits put your people at risk. We’re here to lift standards, not just skills.
