INSPECTION
Visual inspection of the shop press should be made before each use of the
press, checking for damaged, loose or missing parts. Each press must be
inspected by a manufacturer's repair facility immediately, if subjected to an
abnormal load or shock. Any press which appears to be damaged in any way,
is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally must be removed from

facility. It is recommended that an annual inspection of the press be made by
a manufacturer's authorized repair facility and that any defective parts, decals
or warning labels be replaced with manufacturer's specified parts. A list of
authorized repair facilities is available from the manufacturer.
