Function Test Fundamentals

The operator must follow the step-by-step instructions
to test all machine functions.
A malfunctioning machine must never be used. If
malfunctions are 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 and function tests again
before putting the machine into service.
