2.4 DAILY WALK-AROUND INSPECTION
It is the operators responsibility to inspect the machine
before the start of each workday. It is recommended that
each operator inspect the machine before operation, even
if the machine has already been put into service under
another operator. This Daily Walk-Around Inspection is the
preferred method of inspection. (Figure 2-2.)
In addition to the Daily Walk-Around Inspection, be sure to
include the following as part of the daily inspection:
1. Overall cleanliness.
Check all standing surfaces for oil, fuel and hydrau-
lic oil spillage and foreign objects. Ensure overall
cleanliness.
2. Placards.
Keep all information and operating placards clean
and unobstructed. Cover when spray painting or
shot blasting to protect legibility.
3. Operator’s and Safety Manual.
Ensure a copy of this manual is enclosed in the
manual storage box.
4. Machine Log.
Ensure a machine operating record or log is kept,
check to see that it is current and that no entries
have been left uncleared, leaving machine in an
unsafe condition for operation.
5. Start each day with a full fuel tank.
TO AVOID INJURY, DO NOT OPERATE A MACHINE UNTIL ALL
MALFUNCTIONS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. USE OF A MALFUNC-
TIONING MACHINE IS A SAFETY VIOLATION.
TO AVOID POSSIBLE INJURY, BE SURE MACHINE POWER IS
“OFF” DURING WALK-AROUND INSPECTION.
NOTE: Check boom horizontal limit switch for proper opera-
tion and security, both visually and manually. Switch
must shut down high engine and high drive speed
when boom is raised above horizontal:
6. Check platform footswitch for proper operation.
Switch must be released to start engine and
depressed to operate machine.
7. Check that drive brakes hold when machine is
driven up a grade and stopped.
NOTE: On new machines, those recently overhauled, or
after changing hydraulic oil, operate all systems a
minimum of two complete cycles and recheck oil
level in reservoir.
8. Assure that all items requiring lubrication are ser-
viced. Refer to Lubrication Chart, Table 2-1, for spe-
cific requirements.
