The handle of the
SKOOT HT
is to be used as an attachment point for a tether.
5.3. Preparation of Inspection Surface
►
Remove build-up of scale, and other debris
(i.e. dirt, ice)
from surface on which
the crawler is to drive. Excessive build-up will cause the wheels to lose magnetic
attraction which may lead to wheel slippage or crawler detachment.
►
Ensure that no obstructions
(other than standard butt welds)
or voids are in the drive
path. Obstructions and voids could cause the crawler to fall if driven into or over.
►
Ensure that there are no patches of non-ferrous material in the drive path of
the crawler. If the crawler drives over a non-ferrous patch, it will lose magnetic
attraction and will cause the crawler to fall.
