What do you mean tractor dozer? Do you have a machine in mind?

Are you talking about a tracked machine with a blade? Or a wheeled tractor with a blade?

What do you mean by saqa outcomes?

PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD:
This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Quality Assuring Bodies have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Quality Assuring Body should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.

we are a training company we give courses on them im learning how to develop these cours materials so i thought it would be nice if i got some info form everyday users

Maybe it's just me, but I think you are going to have to simplify the question, or questions considerably. And maybe narrow the scope of the question some.

YMMV:2cents:
 
   / Tractor Dozer #6  
if you don't know how to operate one you sure don't need to be teaching someone
 
   / Tractor Dozer #7  
Looks to me like an opportunity for a knowledgeable consultant to come over and assist you in the production of this course, or for you to make a trip here for some hands on instruction.

I am assuming that you are talking about what we call a "Dozer" or "Bull Dozer". Another good source of information for you might be heavyequipmentforums.com . They have a specific forum for Dozers

Good luck,

Tim

Suggest you contact Barloworld for information. There is a possibility, however, that they already have a manual that covers the trading for which you are preparing your manual but there is a possibility they will let you familiarize yourself with a machine and it's operation at their training sites in Joburg or Capetown.
