•
Change of ownership
•
Replacement of motors, engines, mechanisms, structural components, electrical components,
hydraulic components, safety devices and corresponding components
•
Signiicant faults and relative repairs
•
Regular inspections
If there are not enough sheets in the logbook, add other sheets as necessary, by
photocopying them or preparing them in the same way as the ones already present.
The user should indicate the type of platform, the factory serial number and the year of
construction on the additional sheets so that they can become an integral part of this
logbook.
Any maintenance carried out after the irst 100 hours, on a quarterly, six-monthly or annual basis,
should be recorded in section 7 (Periodic checks and maintenance) of the inspection logbook.
The Inspection Logbook should be kept at the disposal of supervisory bodies for a period of ive years
