General Safety and Maintenance Manual: Daily Inspection 7
Daily Inspection
You will need to do the following tasks each day to maintain the
equipment and keep it operating smoothly and safely. Each of these
tasks is covered in this section. You should perform those tasks that
are appropriate for the equipment you are maintaining, and skip those
tasks that do not apply.
• Inspect cables and end connections for wear.
• Clean and inspect equipment frames.
• Check warning labels and Instruction placards for readability.
• Clean any upholstery on the equipment.
• Inspect pads for wear.
Clean Upholstery
Clean upholstery daily with a mild soap and water solution in a spray
bottle. Lightly spray upholstered surfaces and wipe dry with a clean
cloth. Cleaning upholstery daily removes surface dirt and perspiration.
Important: To clean the upholstery, do not use cleaning products that
have any of these ingredients: solvents, alcohol, ammonia, and
petroleum. Use a mild detergent-based cleaner instead.
Inspect Pads for Wear
Inspect pads for cracks in the upholstery, loose staples, and loose
mounting bolts. Replace pads as needed (refer to Obtaining Service
to purchase new pads).
Clean and Inspect Frames
Clean frames daily with a mild soap and water solution in a spray
bottle. Wipe the equipment down with a damp cloth and dry
completely. Be sure to wipe down both painted parts and chrome
parts. Cleaning frames daily removes any grease and dirt.
For chrome parts, use a commercial chrome cleaner to restore and
maintain the luster.
As you clean, inspect the frames for cracks, rust, or other damage.
Make sure welds are solid and fasteners are properly secured.
