3.1.3.2
Inspect the entire length of wire cable for bent or crushed areas, broken or cut wires,
corrosion and other damage. If any defect or damage is found the cable must be replaced.
3.1.3.3
Inspect end connections and fittings for corrosion, kinking, crushing or other damage. If any
corrosion or damage is found the cable must be replaced.
3.1.3.4
Check the wire rope diameter for signs of decreased area (see fig. #8). Diameter decrease
may be signs of wear and internal degradation in the wire rope. Generally, wire ropes
are manufactured larger than nominal diameter. When placed in service for the first time,
diameter can reduce slightly. Minimum diameter specifications can be obtained from the rope
manufacturer.
