Documenting the test

 

Also in countries which do not require a test log book, it is recommended to document the test in the test log book.

*   Document the result of the entire test in the test log book.

─     Type and scope of the test

─     Items of the test still to be evaluated

The test log book and the complete documentation for the crane must be within easy reach of all persons working on or with the crane.
