Pre-operation Inspection Fun-
damentals
It is the responsibility of the operator to perform
a pre-operation inspection and routine mainte-
nance.
The pre-operation inspection is a visual in-
spection performed by the operator prior to
each work shift. The inspection is designed to
discover if anything is apparently wrong with a
machine before the operator performs the
function tests.
The pre-operation inspection also serves to
determine if routine maintenance procedures
are required. Only routine maintenance items
specified in this manual may be performed by
the operator.
Refer to the list on the next page and check
each of the items.
If damage or any unauthorized variation from
factory delivered condition is discovered, the
machine must be tagged and removed from
service.
Repairs to the machine may only be made by
a qualified service technician, according to the
manufacturer’s specifications. After repairs are
completed, the operator must perform a pre-
operation inspection again before going on to
the function tests.
Scheduled maintenance inspections shall be
performed by qualified service technicians, ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s specifications
and the requirements listed in the responsibili-
ties manual.
