INSPECTION
Safe operating practices require scheduled inspections to ensure that the coil lifter is maintained in a
safe operating condition. An individual record of inspections and repairs, such as the one on the back
cover of this booklet, should be maintained for each lifter.
At the beginning of each shift, inspect the unit to be sure it is in safe operating condition. Be sure all
capacity, weight and safety markings are in place and legible.
Every two months the coil lifter should be visually inspected in the areas indicated. Lifters showing
excessive wear or damage should be removed from service.
Coil lifters are furnished with various types of bails that should be inspected for wear. Call for repairs
or replacement parts if load-bearing sections show wear in excess of 20% of the original. See certified
drawing for original bail dimensions. Do not attempt to repair bails without consulting the factory.
