It applies to those who fit earthmoving and OTR tyres, wheels and rim assemblies of not less than 600 mm (24 inches) nominal diameter, noting that this may vary based on the occupation of the learner.
Earthmoving and OTR tyre handlers must be operated in compliance with the licence requirements and regulations of the relevant state or territory authority.
Licensing, legislative, regulatory, Australian standards or certification requirements may apply to this unit in some jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority.
