PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
The CONDITION of the unit prior to start-up is a very IMPORTANT factor as it directly
affects the operator’s safety as well as those around him. It should be a common practice
that the operator performs a general inspection of the
REED 00 MODEL C50SS before
each day’s operation.
The purpose of the operator’s inspection is to keep the equipment in
PROPER working
condition and to DETECT any sign of malfunction during normal operations between
scheduled maintenance checks.
DOWNTIME is COSTLY and can possibly be prevented by taking a few minutes prior to
start-up to do a thorough walk-around inspection. This inspection must be performed each
day before the unit is operated. Report any damage or faulty operation immediately.
Attach a sign, if need be, at the control panel which states ------
DO NOT OPERATE ------.
Repair any discrepancies before use.
Some major items to be considered for your inspection include the following:
1. OVERALL MACHINE CONDITION
