Beginner skid steer operation

Hey everyone, I came across this great little video for your new hires that have never been in a skid steer loader before.  It’s truly the first basics, but we all started somewhere, right?  It’s put out by Environmental Health and Safety, Iowa State University.  Very clean, simple instructions to get started.

They are using a John Deere skid loader, so things are obviously different for other brands but he does a nice job with the female student giving her the basic run through.  I think she had fun!

They did a good job!  ~Skidworks
