37.1 General
Chapter 1.1 and 1.2 refer to ISO standard 5057.
37.1.1 Inspection intervals
Fork arms in service shall be inspected in accordance with clause 1.2 at
intervals of no more than 12 months and whenever any defect or per-
manent deformation is detected. If subjected to heavy use, more fre-
quent inspections may be required.
37.1.2 Inspection
The inspection of a fork arm shall be carried out carefully by trained per-
sonnel with the aim of detecting any damage, failure, deformation, etc.
which may impair safe use. Any fork arm that shows such a defect shall
be withdrawn from service, and not be returned to service unless it has
been satisfactorily repaired and tested in accordance with 1.5.2, if
applicable
37.1.3 Surface cracks
The fork arm shall be thoroughly examined visually for cracks and, if
considered necessary, subjected to a non-destructive crack detection
process. Special attention shall be paid to the heel and the top and bot-
tom hooks including their attachment to the shank. The fork arm shall
be withdrawn from service if surface cracks are detected.
37.1.4 Difference in height of fork tips
A set of fork arms shall be checked for any difference in height when
mounted on the fork carrier. If the difference in tip heights exceeds 3 %
of the blade length or that recommended by the truck manufacturer, the
set of fork arms shall be withdrawn from service. The set of fork arms
shall not be returned to service until they have been re-set as neces-
sary (see 1.5.1) and tested in accordance with 1.5.2.
37.1.5 Positioning lock
It shall be confirmed that the positioning lock, where originally provided,
is in good repair and correct working order. If any fault is found, the fork
arm shall be withdrawn from service until satisfactory repairs have
been effected.
