PREPA INSPECTION
SECTION
2
Once the walk-around inspection check is complete, perform a function check of all
systems in an area free of overhead and ground-level obstructions.
IF THE MACHINE DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY, SHUT IT OFF AND REMOVE POWER FROM
THE MACHINE IMMEDIATELY. REPORT THE PROBLEM TO THE PROPER MAINTENANCE
PERSONNEL AND DO NOT OPERATE THE MACHINE UNTIL IT HAS BEEN DEEMED SAFE FOR
OPERATION.
Function Check Items
2.4
Function Check
• Overload Clutch
- Check to be sure the overload clutch is functioning properly by
briefly running the drill motor in the reverse direction (counterclockwise). You should
hear an audible buzzing sound.
Note:
Be sure to maintain a firm grip on the drill.
• Outrigger Interlock
- The optional outrigger base includes four outrigger
interlocks (one per outrigger) to help ensure each outrigger is bearing weight
and stabilizing the machine. To test this, fully lower the platform to the bottom of
the base, then briefly run the drill motor in the forward position (clockwise) with
the outriggers removed. The platform should not disengage from its fully lowered
position and you should hear an audible buzzing sound coming from the
overload clutch slipping.
Note:
Be sure to maintain a firm grip on the drill. Perform this check while in the
platform at ground level.
• Mast Connectors
- Check to be sure the components of the mast connectors are
present, undamaged, clear of debris, and in good working condition.
(See Figure 2.7)
Note:
Be sure the top mast termination plate is present, undamaged, and
securely attached to the mast section.
•
Leg Adjustment Pins
- Be sure the pin springs function properly and pin housing
slides up and down freely. (See Figure 2.6)
•
Leg Adjustment Cams
- Be sure cams draw the legs tight to the outrigger truss.
(See Figure 2.6)
