As a former ExPress\u00ae plant operator\/manager, I understand all too well the problems of maintenance, wear problems, as well as, the benefits of proper maintenance and wear part rotation.\u00a0 I also know what it is like to have an operator leave and not have someone to properly train a new one.<\/p>\n
The best way to describe what happens is similar to gossip.\u00a0 You started with an operator that was probably trained correctly but over time, has learned several shortcuts that work for him.\u00a0 When that operator trains a new and different operator, he tends to teach him his shortcuts instead of the proper way to do things.\u00a0 Then the \u201cnew guy\u201d learns his own shortcuts and passes them down to the next operator in training. \u00a0 Here is an example; \u00a0when I was a child in grade school, the teacher used to line all of the class up in a single file line.\u00a0 She would tell the child on one end a story or sentence to be passed through the line to the other end.\u00a0 Probably 9 out of 10 times the story or sentence was changed completely by the time it reached the other end of the line.\u00a0 The point of my example is that as operators train new operators, they tend to add or delete important steps or procedures along the way.<\/p>\n
That is why we have come up with the new Insta-Pro Service Plus plan.\u00a0 The best way around a potential problem like the one noted above is to be sure that your operators are properly trained and they stick to the schedule that the Insta-Pro Tech taught them, especially when training new hires.\u00a0 One way to assure that you have someone trained correctly is to purchase the service plus program.\u00a0 Once a year your regional service tech will come out to your plant and spend one or two days talking with your operators and training\/retraining them in a correct manner.\u00a0 The tech will also be able to assess your operating parameters and wear parts to see that everything is working properly.<\/p>\n
We have three service plan options, they are as follows:
\n1. One year
\n2. Two years
\n3. Three Years<\/p>\n
You may choose to have one to three days per visit.\u00a0 Depending on how much attention that you feel your plant needs.<\/p>\n
