Service and Maintenance
4.1 General remarks
Since the OKTOPUS
®
system is a load lifting attachment both the manufacturer and the op-
erator carry a high responsibility to guarantee the relevant safety standard throughout the en-
tire operating time. Thus, service and maintenance are of great importance.
For maintaining a high level of operational safety the OKTOPUS
®
GLASS-Jack GL-N
400/300 has to be inspected by the service workshop of Wirth GmbH or by an especially
qualified person
⇒
at least every 12 months or in shorter intervals, if required by national standards or
regulations or
⇒
after special incidents.
Additional operative and scheduled maintenance and service work may only be performed by
a skilled expert. Maintenance and service work may only be performed when the device is
taken out of operation.
Before performing any repair and maintenance work switch off the OK-
TOPUS
®
; slightly lift the switch “Suction/Release” and slide it towards “Re-
lease”.
Defective parts may only be replaced with original spare parts. They will be provided on re-
quest after consulting with the service team of the OKTOPUS
®
manufacturer. Using not orig-
inal spare parts leads to exemption from liability by the manufacturer.
In order to perform maintenance and service work an appropriate tool kit has to be used.
Maintenance has always to be followed by a functional check.
If damages cannot be repaired by the operator’s staff the Wirth GmbH service workshop
needs to be informed.
4.2 Mechanical system
The mechanical system is sturdy and provided with a surface protection. Maintenance works
on your side comprise
⇒
daily visual inspection of the mechanical components of the
OKTOPUS
®
GLASS-
Jack GL-N 400/300 for damages before startup.
The OKTOPUS
®
GLASS-Jack GL-N 400/300 is a load lifting attachment. Therefore, repairs
on the mechanical function parts shall exclusively be carried out by the OKTOPUS
®
manufac-
turer.
Do not perform any repairs at mechanical functioning parts!
