Safety inspections at regular intervals and after exceptional events

The industrial truck must be inspected by a qualified inspector at least once a year or
following an accident. The inspector must assess the condition of the truck in safety
terms alone, with no influence from operational or commercial considerations. The
inspector must demonstrate adequate knowledge and experience to be able to
assess the condition of an industrial truck and the effectiveness of the safety
equipment in accordance with engineering rules and the principles for the inspection
of industrial trucks.
The inspection must consist of a thorough inspection of the technical condition of the
truck with regard to accident prevention. In addition, the truck must be thoroughly
inspected for damage which might be attributable to improper use of the vehicle. An
inspection record must be compiled. The results of the inspection must be retained at
least until the next but one inspection.
The owner must ensure that all defects are rectified without delay.
If the industrial truck does not meet the normal operating and/or safety criteria and it
is impossible to restore it to a condition meeting the relevant standards, guidelines
and regulations for safety at work, it must be scrapped. The dismantled components
and the operating resources removed from the vehicle must be disposed of
professionally in accordance with applicable environment protection regulations.
NOTICE The manufacturer has established a special safety service for this purpose,
with specially qualified employees. As visual confirmation that the industrial
truck has passed the safety inspection, a label is attached to the vehicle. This
label shows the month and year in which the inspection must be repeated.
