Most construction equipment is much more sophisticated than an automobile or truck. One broken part or electronic system failure can stop a machine from working, and can cost a contractor thousands of dollars in downtime. Someone needs to know all about this advanced and complex technology, be able to diagnose equipment failures, and be able to correctly and efficiently repair any problems. That someone can be you!
