Ensure camera and light ports are clean.
❑
Check the reel for the following:
Check that the Shipping Brake is disengaged, and the Friction Brake is engaged.
Check that the tether has no loose, dangling coils. Dangling coils can propagate as the drum rotates
and have the potential to jump the drum. Take care of these before deploying the tether.
❑
Power up the system and check the following:
Check for sufficient SSD drive space for recording.
Check record directories are set.
Test video recording.
Test track control.
Test camera control.
Post-Operations Check
A Post-Ops inspection should be carried out after every deployment using the following checklist:
❑
Inspect the tether for damage as it is reeled in.
❑
Visually inspect vehicle for entrained debris or mechanical damage.
❑
Test each function to ensure proper operation.
❑
Clean the system by hosing it down with water at regular line pressure. Do not pressure wash. The
tracks may be cleaned off by hosing them down while running. If the system has been used in salt water,
thoroughly rinse the vehicle with fresh water right away.
❑
Take time to pack the system properly for transport away from the worksite.
❑
Store the system in a dry environment.
Note:
Ensuring the Versatrax 50™ system is always stored in good working condition will minimize
deployment time for future inspections.
