The owner (operator) (page 14) should arrange for the safety inspections to be performed at specified intervals
according to national rules and regulations.

dent prevention regulations and the generally accepted technical rules so that they can assess the sound operat-

ment and the elimination of the determined faults must be confirmed by the owner/employer in writing, along with
