WARNING: Do not use the clamp if in need of repair.
If, during the every lift inspection, the operator believes the
clamp exhibits excessively worn parts or is damaged, the clamp
should be inspected by a qualified person who will make a de-
termination as to its fitness to make a lift. At this time the con-
dition of the clamp should be noted and recorded. After inspec-
tion by the qualified person it may be decided that a periodic
inspection procedure is necessary.
Frequent Inspection:
A visual inspection (see every lift inspection) by an operator or other
designated person timed according to the clamps service class.
·
Normal Service
: monthly
·
Heavy Service
: weekly to monthly
·
Severe Service

Periodic Inspection:
A recorded inspection by a qualified person as described in the Periodic
Inspection Procedure below timed according to the clamps service class.
·
Normal Service
: annual
·

If during any inspection a condition is found which leads to a
periodic inspection then the next periodic inspection is due
from the time the clamp is returned to service. For example un-
der a Normal Service schedule, one year from the time the
clamp is returned to service.
Renfroe recommends that a periodic inspection be conducted if any
hazardous condition is found.
