following steps each day before use.
Perform a complete visual inspection of the entire unit prior to operating. Check the following areas for dis-
crepancies:
1. Open the covers and check hydraulic components and hoses for damage or leaks.
2. Check electrical components and wiring for damage or loose connections.
3. Inspect the chassis, axles, hubs, and steering linkage for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or
missing hardware, and cracked welds.
4. Air-filled tires: check for damage, punctures, and inflation; tire pressure must be 5.5 bar (80 psi).
5. Check all hoses and cables for wear.
6. Inspect the elevating assembly for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or missing hardware, and
cracked welds.
7. Inspect the platform and guardrails for damage, deformation, buckled paint, loose or missing hardware,
and cracked welds. Ensure that the gate operates freely and latches securely.
