Abdomen
The abdomen should be checked periodically (10 tests) for tearing of the PVC skin.
Note that the wear of the abdomen is greatly reduced by observing the proper
installation procedure. First remove the upper torso. The abdomen can then be
removed by simply lifting it out of the pelvis.
Arms
Check the friction setting of the shoulder-arm regularly. Check the spring
plungers in the elbows. See paragraph 5.2 for instructions.
Cable Routing
Always provide sufficient slack in the cables to allow the dummy to deform without
putting any strain on the cables. This is especially important for the
instrumentation located in the head (accelerometers, load cell). Please note that
the slack can cause the cables to snag behind some other object in the test set-
up, which can result in damage of the head instrumentation.
Dummy Certification
Besides the inspections to be performed before each test as described above, the
dummy should be regularly certified to check its performance. It is advised to
certify the dummy regularly as described in chapter 8.

loosening in normal use. To set the correct 1-2 G setting
of the
shoulder joint,
tighten the M3 screws evenly until the correct setting has been found.
