should include, but not be limited to, the following
recommendations. Parts should be repaired or replaced as
required. All carts should show proof of inspection (i.e.,
inspection sticker).

Check the overall cart condition. Check for broken welds,
bent parts, and missing parts. Assure that all moving
parts are working properly.

Check seat belts. Assure all seat belts are working
correctly and are properly secured to carts. Replace belts
every three years.

swivel and turn freely. Assure casters and wheels are
properly secured to carts.
