visually deformed or stretched or severely corroded,
with deposits that cannot be removed (e. g. weld spat­
ter), deep cuts, notches, grooves, incipient cracks or
which are overheated, must be replaced. Missing safety
devices such as latches, triggers, pins or defective,
broken or deficient springs must be replaced. Only use
