Devices and cranes are to be checked periodically by a specialist. Primarily, visual and functional checks are to be carried out,
whereby the state of components with respect to damage, wear, corrosion or any other changes is determined. In addition, safety
equipment is assessed for completeness and efficiency. It may be necessary to dismantle the equipment to correctly assess wear
parts.
Load-bearing parts must be inspected over their entire length, including covered or hidden parts.
All periodical inspections should be arranged by the operator.
