MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance including Testing, Inspection and Cleaning should be carried out on
the Kibble to reduce the risk of potential hazards arising. In particular, thorough cleaning
after operational use is a must to prevent the Discharge Gate, Handle and/or Chute from
jamming as well as making identification of damage easier. The Kibble should be cleaned
and visually inspected by a “Competent Person” under adequate lighting conditions, before
each shift, to ensure all components are functioning correctly and are free from any
noticeable wear or damage, particularly at any load bearing or highly stressed points. If
components are considered worn or damaged, or if safety charts or labels are damaged or
illegible, the Kibble should be taken out of service and East West Engineering or an
“Authorised Person” contacted for advice. Periodic testing may be required if any damage
is noted, as this could be an indication of abuse or overloading. Keep maintenance records
to ensure safety checks are carried out.
