6. Care and maintenance / Disposal
6.1. Transport / Storing
During transport ensure the rigging components are not stressed or
damaged by mechanical forces. Use suitable transport cases.
Due to their surface treatment the J-Series rigging components are
temporarily protected against moisture. However, ensure the
components are in a dry state while stored or during transport and use.
6.2. Visual and functional inspection
Cabinet enclosure:
• Visual inspection of all fitting plates for obvious damage (e.g. cracks
or corrosion).
• Inspection of all fitting plates including front grills to ensure they are
securely attached.
• Regularly lubricate the sockets with WD-40
®
or a similar product.
Locking pins
• Visual inspection regarding deformation and corrosion of the
component.
• Inspection for missing ball bearings and damage.
• Functional inspection of the release mechanism to check it functions
properly.
• Regularly lubricate Locking pins with WD-40
®
or a similar product.
Front and Splay (Rear) links
Visual inspection regarding deformation and damage (e.g. cracks and
corrosion) including all drilled holes of the component.
Z5300 J Flying frame
• Visual inspection regarding deformation and damage (e.g. cracks
and corrosion) including all drilled holes of the component.
• Regularly check the flatness of the Flying frame. For this purpose
position the Flying frame on a flat surface and visually check the
frame for deformation and/or torsion. For obvious deformation
and/or torsion contact d&b audiotechnik for further advice and how
to proceed.
Z5303 J Safety chain
Z5305 J Hoist connector chain
Inspection according to the appropriate regulations for lifting devices
(EN 818-6:2000 Regularly inspection within a 12 month period.
Regularly inspection for cracks within a 36 month period).
6.3. Disposal
When out of use the rigging components must be disposed in
accordance to the national environmental regulations.
Ensure that damaged rigging components are disposed in a way that
they can not be used again.
