The qualified person inspecting the crane is responsible for the type and scope of the test.

In addition to the points described here, all points outlined in the other supplied product manuals must also be checked.

The decision as to whether the crane is in perfect condition may be made only by the person inspecting the crane. Any inadequacies, if found, must be eliminated. The examiner decides whether the crane has to be tested again afterward.

If locally applicable regulations specify further tests, these are likewise to be carried out.

Additionally, at least the following points must be checked:

   Check the wheel flange wear. See Inspecting the wheel flange wear.

   Only for braking function or shut-down: Check the braking distance of the crane in the limit switch range. See Checking the braking distance.

   Check the wear on the guide rollers. See Checking the wear on the guide rollers.

   Check the diameter of the wheels. See Checking the diameter of the wheels.

   Check the condition of the safety buffer. See Inspecting the condition of the safety buffer.

   Check the condition of the crane track and the supporting structure. They must be adequate for the expected loads.
