Hello! My name is Tommy Segersteen and I am a teacher at the Vehicle and transport program with orientation Lorries and mobile machinery in BorĂ¥s, the school name is Viskastrand High School.
It's my second year as a teacher and worked as a mechanic at substantially heavier vehicles before that. This photo is the front of my workplace.
This is the entrance to the workshop. The workshop is about 3 km from the main school.
This is the workshop!
To the left is an old Volvo FH12a that the students do some exercises on, the red car with rotating beacons are our service car and with that the students go out and do field work on the other educational programs vehicle, the white is the main transport vehicle that the students go and get parts to vehicles that we repair. The blue truck cab belonging to a crashed FH12a that we got from Volvo, the plan is to repair and used for educational purposes.
This is a student who will take apart an AC compressor and see what it looks like inside and then answer some questions.
Here have a student removed a transmission on a truck and removed the bell housing to check why it sounds bad on the reverse. The truck gearbox sits on a Volvo FM7-owned transport orientation that students have repaired and serviced.
Here is a student who welds an excavator bucket. The entire left side was replaced in the bucket. When we got the bucket it was very cracked.
