PLATFORM INSPECTION AND TESTS
GENERAL
To establish a good standard of care and maintenance for the vehicle, the platform and
its associated equipment, it is recommended that a full structural inspection and platform
test be undertaken every 1000 hours or six months of operation.
The inspection and tests are to be carried out by authorised persons and must comply
with L.O.L.E.R. 1998.
The electronic moment limiting system fitted to these vehicles is an essential part of the
system safety and must be checked for correct operation.
Please contact Gardner Denver UK Service department for vehicle parameters.
The purpose of the structural inspection is:
1.
Examine the condition of the structure and check for any signs of cracking or
deformation.
2.
Examine the powered mechanisms for raising and slewing.
3.
To ensure security of all fastenings.
All faults should be rectified before returning the platform to service.
THE PLATFORM IS TO BE WITHDRAWN FROM SERVICE UNTIL THE FAULTS ARE
CORRECTED.
INSPECTION OF PLASTIC CAGE
The cage should be inspected daily as damage may be caused by impact at any
time.
Any damage must be reported and the appropriate action taken.
Under no circumstances
should repairs be attempted in the area of the mountings
or cage corners.
