6.1
START-UP
6.1.1
Initial Start-Up
The initial start-up of the equipment concerns both the manufacturer and the future us-
er, the customer. In general, the job required here will be carried out jointly in a training
held at the manufacturers or in a briefing on the construction site.
Even before the first rigging operations are begun, the operator of the equipment must
be familiar with all the control elements and their capabilities.
6.1.2
Visual Inspection before Starting
A visual inspection and thorough check is required before putting the equipment into
operation:
● Inspect the entire equipment for loose connections and missing pins or bolts.
● Check all components for wear.
● Check all electric lines for damage.
● Look for leaks and fluid spills.
● Check all contained oils and fluids have the proper level.
