For example, more attention was paid to maintenance for small tonnage forklifts and safety operation for large tonnage forklifts. The training combines theory and practice, with interestingness and practicability in mind.

The 220-ton all terrain crane QAY220 of XCMG has the highest value and complexity among the assistance supplies, and is also the currently the largest tonnage crane owned by a port company.

29-year old Mandov Alibaz is a mechanist at the port company, who was particularly excited about his participation in the training.

"The assistance equipment is of the latest model, which is what the company needs badly now. The Chinese engineers taught us the installation and commissioning, service and follow-up maintenance. This is exactly the information we need at present. I'm so glad to participate in the training to learn from the Chinese friends. "

By the end of the project, Mandov and his colleagues had mastered the maintenance of all the equipment.

In order to better make the equipment better used for a longer time and serve the Azerbaijani people, the XCMG team not only imparted operation skills, maintenance methods but also the "four principles of non-damage", "shift and handover record system", "checking module before start of equipment”, “ten principles of prohibition in hoisting" of the crane and other safety precautions, and trained over 100 Azerbaijani trainees in total. The XCMG team taught everything they know in this technical service, got along with the Azerbaijani staff and received unanimous praise.
