7. Function check
You must subject the portable system to a function check before it is used each time and
every time it has been dismantled, but in any case at least every 6 months. If you discover
faults during the function check, you may not use the portable system again until the faults
have been rectified. To guarantee that the portable system works perfectly, observe the fol-
lowing points.
7.1 Visual inspection
Look at the portable system closely. The portable system may not be damaged in any way
– which could result in parts coming loose
– which may restrict its function or
– which may cause injuries.
If you find any damage relating to one of these points, the portable system must be re-
paired or replaced.
7.2 Check catch
1. Hang the portable system in the wall mounting and allow it to engage.
– The portable system must be located firmly in the wall mounting.
– The red control pin of the catch cross-bar must be flush with the top edge of the
catch housing.
2. Check unlatching next. To do this, reach through the handle and pull the catch cross-
bar upwards.
– The catch cross-bar must be easy to move.
– The portable system may not catch on removal.
7.3 Check protective bag (if present)
