Inspection - UniCarriers FG20 Series Operation & Maintenance Manual

ALWAYS INSPECT BEFORE
■
OPERATING
The operator should always inspect the truck before
each use to verify that all essential safety features
are working. Any abnormality is to be reported to
the supervisor, who is responsible for correcting it.
PERIODIC INSPECTIONS ARE
■
MANDATORY
Monthly and annual inspections must be performed
thoroughly, and any abnormality promptly repaired.
Only a certified expert who has the advanced skills
and equipment is allowed to conduct inspections.

Certain critical parts must be replaced at regular
intervals. Since it is difficult to detect wear on the
above parts by visual inspection, they must be
replaced at the intervals specified, because a failure
would result in a falling load or runaway truck.
FOR SUPERVISORS
■
A truck that has not passed an inspection must
never be operated. Hang a sign on the truck and
remove the ignition switch, to make sure no one
uses it. Then report the problem to the supervisor
and wait for the repair to be completed.
