During the GO process, some of the components are always replaced, and some components are inspected and
replaced if necessary.
The General Overhaul process of a hoist always includes the following phases:
1. Collecting the required information
2. Evaluating the need of General Overhaul
3. Estimating the content and cost
4. Performing General Overhaul
5. Commissioning.
The five phases are not always sequential, as for instance, not all the parts can be inspected before the hoist is
disassembled during the actual GO service.

Evaluation of the need of General Overhaul (special assessment)
A special assessment is a thorough examination and evaluation of the product carried out by authorized service
personnel or an experienced service man that is authorized by the manufacturer or by the manufacturer
representative in accordance with the ISO 12482-1 standard. The assessment is done when the product is
approaching the end of runtime SWP, typically when 20% of the runtime SWP is remaining. Any general overhaul
requirements that are stated in the special assessment report must be carried out before further use of the product.
