o Make sure the data plates and stickers are present, legible and in good condition on
the platform, protection mesh and anywhere required.
∞ REFER TO SECTION 4.10 DATA PLATES AND STICKERS, ON PAGE 31.
o At ground level, keep the space around the working zone of the platform clean and
cleared.
o Visually inspect the movement path of the platform and that it is clear of any
obstacles.
o Inspect the condition of the guide rollers.
• Protections;
o If present, inspect the ground protection mesh. Make sure the ground is firm and
solid. Check that the protection mesh adjustable footing is well adjusted to the
ground. Add shoring if necessary.
• Control;
o At ground level, check that the arms and rollers of the level limit switch are in good
condition and pivot easily.
o At every required level, make sure that the level detector pads are firmly attached
and in good working condition.
• Additional components;
Inspect the condition of the following items. Check for jamming, deformation and
breakage;
o Loading and unloading, tailgates of the platform.

o Railings.
o Plinth.
o Protection roof (if installed - optionnal).
• Electro-mechanical;
o Inspect the condition of the motorization.
o Inspect the condition of the main power supply.
o Inspect the condition of the power cables, cable guides and cable barrels. Look for
twists/derformations and sharp edges that may damage the cables.
• Operation;
Make a movement verification and make sure that:
o The end travel detectors are triggered at each floor and ground level.
o The tailgates interlock locks work adequately. It must not be possible to operate
(elevate or lower) the platform when one of the doors is opened

make sure the sound signal works during the rest of the descent, until reaching
ground level.
o Inspect the condition and function of the emergency descent system.
o While operating, someone must inspect the condition of the ground and of the load
distribution elements (legs with adjustable jacks, shoring, etc.).
