3.20 Recovery, loading and transporting
Machines shall only be loaded onto recovery vehicles when adequate towing
vehicles are used.
Use the lifting points specified by the manufacturer.
For loading and transportation secure the machine and the required auxiliary
devices against unintended movements.
Clean running gear and chassis of the machine from slurry, snow and ice, so
that the loading ramp can be approached without the risk of slipping.
For transport by truck, low loader or railway secure the machine reliably with
wheel chocks and by fastening it at the lashing points.
Before setting off, the route to be taken must be examined to determine
whether the roads are wide enough, entrances and passages under bridges
are large enough and that roads and bridges have sufficient carrying
capacity.
3.21 Monitoring and inspections
Have the machine inspected by an expert (e. g. machine engineer or
machine foreman) according to the regulations in force in the user's country
(e.g. Accident Prevention Regulations in Germany):
• Before the machine is put into operation for the first time and after
significant modifications have been made
• At least once a year
• In the meantime, according to operating conditions and local
environments
Keep record of the inspection report and file it until the next inspection.
Before the beginning of the shift check the machine following the inspection
plan.
Replace hydraulic hoses as soon as the following damage is noticed:
• Damage to the outer layer which reaches the intermediate layer.
• Embrittled patches on the outer layer.
• Deformations when under pressure or without pressure which differ from
the original shape of the installed hose.
• Leaks.
• Damage to hose fittings or to the connection between the fitting and the
hose.
Check the coolant level only with the engine shut down, carefully turn the
cover to relieve overpressure.
Check the function of the safety devices before using the machine.
In case of any faults inform the supervisor immediately, at change of shifts
inform also the new operator.
In case of faults that could endanger the operating safety of the machine stop
operation until the fault is corrected.
