other factors (e.g. heavy use, levels of vandalism, coastal location, air pollution, age of equipment, ...).
Moving metal parts must be oiled regularly.
Routine visual inspection (weekly to monthly)
- Always check that the bolts and nuts are securely fastened.
- Check the shock absorbing surface for objects that don't belong there.
- Check for missing parts.
- Check the equipment ground clearances.
Operational inspection (1 to 3 months)
