Inspections
According to the inspection criteria regular inspections are
required; after exceptional incidents additional inspections
are required. All inspections have to be documented in an
inspection record.
Regular inspections / inspection before application
The contractor or operator must ensure that the HALFEN
HLX Lift-Box system is inspected at regular intervals.
Before each use, it must be ensured that the last inspection
and confi rmation of usability were not carried out more
than 12 months ago.
Frequent use or environmental eff ects may require shorter
periods between inspections. The inspections must only be
executed by qualifi ed persons and have to be recorded in
the inspection record.
Additional inspections
After unusual incidents which may infl uence the load
capacity of the HALFEN HLX Lift-Box or after maintenance
work, the contractor or operator has to ensure that an
additional inspection is done by a suitably qualifi ed
person and documented in the inspection record.
