Inspection before use

The pre-operation inspection is a visual inspection performed by the operator prior to each work shift.
This inspection is designed to discover if anything is apparently wrong with a machine before the operator
performs the function tests.

If damage or any unauthorized variation from factory delivered condition is discovered, the machine must be
tagged and removed from service.
Repairs to the machine may only be made by a qualified service technician, according to the manufacturer's
specifications. After repairs are completed, the operator must perform a preoperation inspection again before
going on to the function tests.
