How to log an inspection, load test, repair or certification on an installation
How to log an inspection, load test, repair or certification on an installation. A step-by-step walkthrough of the screens, buttons and fields involved.
The steps, written out
- Open Hoists & equipment and press Log on the unit (or open it and press Log inspection; New entry in the log card).
- Choose the Log type: Daily inspection, Load test, Service, Repair, Wire rope inspection, Overspeed test or Certification.
- Set the Date and Performed by (both required).
- For a Daily inspection mark every item of the checklist Pass, Fail or N/A (swing stages and mast climbers: wire ropes, stirrups, motors, brakes, tie-backs, outrigger counterweights, lifeline, rope grabs; hoists: mast sections, gate interlocks, landing gates, rack & pinion, brakes, overspeed device, limit switches, base enclosure).
- Add Readings / measurements (for example the load-test weight or rope diameter) and Notes, and sign.
- Press Save log.
Tip
Any failed item makes the entry Fail and takes the unit Out of Service. A pass sets the Next inspection due, Last load test (Load test) or the Certificate expiry one year ahead (Certification). The Owner / Administrator, Office Manager, Safety Inspector, Foreman, Crew Member and Yard Manager can log entries.
