Page 38: Inspection And Maintenance
6 INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE 6.1 GENERAL MAINTENANCE RULES Maintenance information for the associated HydraPak and HydraWinch is in the respective specific manuals for these units. Proper maintenance of the hoist and related equipment consists of adhering to all the guidelines given in this chapter and in the Pre-Hoisting Checklist in the front of this manual. -
Page 39: Initial Inspection
6.2 INITIAL INSPECTION Hoist erection and dismantling must be done by trained personnel only as defined in Section 6.1. Each time after setting up the hoist and before placing it in service, all parts of the structure, boom, hoisting machine, and other equipment must be thoroughly inspected by trained personnel as described in the remainder of this chapter. - Page 40 Kinking: Severe kinking, crushing, bird caging or other damage causing distortion of the rope structure. Bird caging is a bulging in the wire rope caused by the individual wires becoming untwisted. This untwisting of individual wires is usually caused by impact loading on the wire rope (such as a sudden stop). Heat damage: Evidence of any heat damage caused by a torch or by contact with electrical wires.
