Scope of the inspection

The qualified person inspecting the crane with trolley is responsible for the type of test as well as its scope.

 

Overview: Checking the trolley

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 trolley is in a perfect condition may only be made by the examiner. Any inadequacies, if found, must be eliminated. The examiner decides whether the trolley will then need to be tested again.

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