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 the 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 proceeding
with the function tests.
Scheduled maintenance inspections shall be
performed only by qualified service technicians,
according to the manufacturer's specifications
and
the
requirements
listed
in
the
responsibilities manual.
