6 Putting into service for the first time
6.1 Safety instructions when first putting the unit into service
The machine may only be handed over, if its safety has been verified by a corresponding inspection ⇒ "Inspections
when first putting into service, handing over", Page 60.
WARNING
When first putting into service, safe operation of the machine is not yet guaranteed.
Machines may only be put into service, when assembly has been completed according to the assemly instructions.
– Putting into service may be carried out by specialist personnel, only.
– Before putting into operation check that the safety equipment is fitted / functioning.
– Check that the mains voltage and frequency match the data specified on the rating plate.
– Move the trolleys by hand and check that they can be moved without resistance by hand over the entire length
of the track section (if existing).
– Before starting work ensure that sufficient working clearance is available.
– Secure working and danger zone.
– Wear protective clothing!
Only trained specialist personnel must be employed for first putting into service since:
● it may be necessary to render safety devices or features inoperative when carrying out adjustments or function
checks,
● work may need to be performed in the danger zone when first putting into service.
6.2 Inspection regulations
WARNING
Non-compliance with operating and maintenance instructions
Danger to life and limb.
Compliance with all inspection regualtions is an integral part of securing the safe operation of the machine.
Prescribed tests and inspections must be carried out.
All inspections must be arranged at the specified time intervals / points of time and documented by the owner.
– Inspection in accordance with relevant national regulations, e.g. UVV/BGV D6 for cranes; UVV/BGV D8 for
winches, hoists and towing devices in Germany.
The owner is responsible for ensuring that powered chain hoists are inspected by an expert engineer prior to
first putting into service and after major modifications have been carried out, before putting into service again.
This also applies to manually operated or semi-powered chain hoists with a load capacity of more than 1000
kg.
– Adjustment, maintenance and inspection activities and inspection deadlines including specifications concern‐
ing replacement of parts/assemblies prescribed in the operating instructions must be observed.
– For the values for noise emission measurement according to DIN 45635 please refer to ⇒ "Noise emission /
sound pressure level", Page 26
This work may only be carried out by specialists.
