Before each shift starts an extra and thorough visual safety check should be carried out in
order to detect:
n Damage that could give rise to structural weakness or cracks.
n Wear that could have the same consequences.
n Cracks or fractures in materials or welded joints.
If the drill rig has been subjected to abnormally high stresses, vital load-bearing compon-
ents may have been damaged. From a safety viewpoint, it is therefore especially important
to check the following points (see illustration: Check points).
