Model TL/A Periodic Inspection Procedures
Step 1.
Verify the identity of the clamp by checking the I. D. plate on the clamp
body. If the I. D. plate is missing or not legible an RFID chip (Radio Fre-
quency Identification Device) is embedded in the clamp body or a clamp
component. If the I. D. plate is missing and the RFID chip is unavailable call
the Renfroe factory for instructions on returning the clamp for recertifica-
tion.
Step 2.
Completely disassemble clamp.
Step 3.
Remove all dirt, grease and other matter that may inhibit proper inspection
of the clamp body or clamp components.
Step 4 BODY
A. Inspect welds for fractures. RENFROE recommends a dye penetrant or
similar method of detecting indications on the clamp. If an indication is
found it may be necessary to use a magnetic particle, ultrasonic or simi-
lar methods for determining damage to the clamp or components.
B. Inspect shackle pin guide slots located inside body. Guide slots must
be smooth and free of indentations where shackle pin may seat. Refer
to exploded view.
C. Inspect all pin holes for wear and elongation.
D. Inspect inside jaw opening for displaced metal and distortion.
E. Inspect clearance of lock handle assembly mounting hole for wear.
Clearance with shaft of lock handle assembly should be minor. Mount-
ing holes that are worn oversized may cause the lock handle to mal-
function. Refer to exploded view.
