4.2 INSPECTION
4.2.1 Visual Inspection
A complete visual inspection should be
performed on the application of Davit System
you are using prior to the operation. The
following items should be checked; and the
results recorded on the “Inspection Log” sheet
(see Section 4.3).
1. Labels
Check that all labels are clean and legible.
Clean the labels if any are dirty using a mild
soap and a damp cloth. Replace if any are
illegible (Refer to Section 5 for a listing of all
labels).
2. Fasteners
Check that all screws and other fasteners
are tight. If any are loose or missing,
contact your local dealer or UCL
manufacturer. Refer to replacement parts
drawings in this manual.
3. Structural Components
Check the components for cracks, dents,
bends, or breaks. Minor cosmetic damage
in the component body will not affect the
function of the davit system. However if
there are major dents or any other structural
damage, the unit should be removed form
service and returned to the manufacturer for
service.
4. Corrosion
Check all components for damage from
corrosion. Although all components resist
corrosion, working in corrosive
environments can lead to damage. Inspect
all structural components and fasteners for
signs of damage. If damage found, remove
from service and return to the manufacturer
or service.
