S
. The two final columns on the same
row will tell you the remaining DWP% and the estimated remaining service life.

Record the value of the DWP % in the log book.
For example
, if we use
S
= 640, Hoist duty group
= M5 (2m) then the DWP % = 60 %:
When the DWP % reaches zero, a General Overhaul (GO) must be conducted. Refer to chapter General Overhaul
(GO).
