Inspections when first putting into service, handing over

WARNING
Impermissible operation
There is danger to life and limb when the machine is operated without previous inspection.
Machines may only be put into service, when they have been inspected according to the accident prevention
regulations.
By means of suitable measures carried out by the owner or on his behalf, the owner ensures that the load handling
attachments and machinery ready for operation function in complete safety before first being put into service. The
specified measures must allow for the static and dynamic features of the machinery.
The following checks must be carried out when first putting into service:
● The proper condition of the supporting structure and the load capacity of the chain hoist.
● Safety devices must be completely fitted and effective.
● Clearances and safety distances must be complied with.
● The emergency stop device must be checked by actuating the emergency stop.
When putting into service for the first time, all possibilities of intended use must be checked at the corresponding
maximum permissible load. The functioning of the safety devices must be checked (e.g. by lifting an overload). At
the same time the behaviour of the chain hoist in the case of misuse must be checked.
Before handing over, different inspections of the machine must be arranged for:
● Inspection for suitability for operation
● Acceptance test
As soon as the safe operating status of the chain hoist is ensured, the test and inspection records can be prepared.
When handing over the machine, the test and inspection records (test and inspection booklet; observe the relevant
country-specific regulations) are handed over.
After the machine has been handed over, it may be used as intended.
