Care and maintenance
Ring cotters
▪ Visual inspection for obvious damage and deformation.
▪ Functional test of the locking mechanism as described in
Chapter 3.11 "Ring cotters" on page 20.
If a ring cotter can no longer be properly fitted to the fixing bolt
and locked, it must be exchanged.
XSL Flying frame and Compression frame
▪ Visual inspection regarding any indication of deformation and
damage (e.g. cracks and corrosion) including all drilled holes of
the component.
▪ Visual inspection regarding the attachment and securing of the
shackles.
▪ Regularly check the flatness of the frames. For this purpose
position the frames on a flat surface and visually check the
frames for deformation and/or torsion. For obvious deformation
and/or torsion contact d&b audiotechnik for further advice on
how to proceed.
XSL Load beam
▪ Visual inspection regarding any indication of deformation and
damage (e.g. cracks and corrosion) including all drilled holes of
the component.
▪ Visual inspection regarding the attachment and securing of the
shackles.
▪ Regularly check the flatness of the beam. For this purpose,
position the beam on a flat surface and visually check the beam
for deformation and/or torsion. For obvious deformation
and/or torsion, contact d&b audiotechnik for further advice on
how to proceed.
Z5707 SL Aiming plate
▪ Visual inspection regarding any indication of deformation and
damage (e.g. cracks and corrosion) including all drilled holes of
the component.
▪ Visual inspection regarding the attachment and securing of the
shackles, coupling shackle and chain.
XSL Compression set components
Z5775 Safety chain set
Z5776 Hoist connector chain
Inspection according to the appropriate regulations for lifting
devices (EN 818-6:2000).
▪ Regularly inspect within a 12 months period.
▪ Regularly inspect for cracks within a 36 months period.
