INSPECTIONS
Pre-operation Inspection Fundamentals
It is the responsibility of the operator to perform a pre-
operation inspection and routine maintenance.
The pre-operation inspection is a visual inspection performed by
the operator prior to each work shift. The inspection is designed
to discover if anything is apparently wrong with a machine
before the operator performs the function tests.
The pre-operation inspection also serves to determine if routine
maintenance procedures are required. Only routine
maintenance items specified in this manual may be performed
by the operator.
Refer to the list on the next page and check each of the items.
If damage or any unauthorized variation from factory delivered
condition is discovered, the machine must be tagged and
removed from service.
Repairs to the machine may only be made by a qualified service
technician, according to the manufacturer's specifications. After
repairs are completed, the operator must perform a pre-
operation inspection again before going on to the function tests.
Scheduled maintenance inspections shall be performed by
qualified service technicians, according to the manufacturer's
specifications.
