Annual Inspection; Important - SKYLOTEC Jackpod Davit Instrucciones De Uso

While minor cosmetic damage will not affect the structural integrity of the Jackpod Davit System, seriously
damaged equipment MUST BE removed from service and returned to an authorized service center for
EN
repair prior to further use.
Additionally, inspect any accessories being used with the Davit System as instructed in the Operators
Manual provided by the respective manufacturer at the time of purchase.
6.1.3 Davit Overload Indicator Operation
The Jackpod Davit Arm is equipped with a unique overload protection feature that guards against
damage to system components and provides a visual indicator of the structure having been
subjected to greater than allowed loading.
Note: Do not test Overload Indicator over an opening or where there is a chance of falling.
To inspect the Overload Indicator for proper engagement:
- Fully extend and lock the Boom Extension Tube as described in Section 4.3,
- Install a winch or SRL on the structure as per the applicable instructions, and,
- Pull with your full body weight on the lifeline and make sure there is no movement of the Extension
Tube. If using an SRL, apply a sharp, steady pull on the lifeline to engage the SRL brakes, then pull on
the lifeline to test the Overload Indicator.
Note: When conducting this test with an SRL, the test should be applied to the lifeline above the snap
hook to eliminate any damage over time to any integral overload indicator in the snap itself.

6.2 Annual inspection

At least annually, and more frequently if subjected to harsh conditions or excessive use, the Jackpod Davit
System MUST BE given a detailed inspection by a competent person as described below, and the results
recorded in an Inspection Log. A sample Inspection Log is provided on Page 16 of this manual. Please
make photocopies of this sample to record all inspection results.
Following the instructions for Daily Inspection contained in Section 6.1.1 to 6.1.3, inspect the equipment
for physical damage and record the results in the Inspection Log.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to review any previous inspection records to be aware of existing concerns and to
allow for re-inspection of any potential problem areas. Cumulative findings may lead to the need for repair
or replacement when looked at together.
NOTE: Any time equipment is returned to a factory authorized Service Center for repair, please provide
photocopies of all previous Inspection Log sheets for that product to assist with diagnosis and processing
of any warranty claims or service issues. Please obtain a Returned Goods Authorization number from the
service center before sending your equipment for service.
