Schwing Announces 2017 Training Service Seminar Schedule

Schwing has announced its 2017 service seminar schedule, offering more choices to appeal to a wider audience of concrete pumping professionals. In addition to intermediate training for operators/mechanics and advanced training for mechanics, the company will offer an SP school focusing on the stationary pump line. The seminars are held at Schwing’s dedicated training facility in White Bear, Minnesota, and include multi-media training aids and hands-on troubleshooting. Students also receive a service manual on CDROM, along with a printed copy of the training manual. Concrete pump owners, operators and mechanics are advised to sign up soon. “We are reacting to the growing SP market for our smaller pumps by offering this specialized service seminar,” states Myron Birschbach, Schwing vice president/GM of aftermarket parts and service. “Business is back and pumping companies are hiring, so the seminars are more popular than ever.” Participants may sign up for the scheduled seminars online at http:/-schwing.com/service.
