How To Control Excavator

Excavators are one type of heavy equipment used in excavation or dredging activities. To be an operator or operate heavy equipment types is certainly not be any people or without adequate skill, even a driver's license is required to operate the excavator B2 for this.

I do not think too hard to be able to operate excavators this, but it may need concentration and a good experience and would meet the requirements to become a heavy equipment operator.
