Transport, Storage, Decommissioning And Disposal - Yale TIGRIP Manual Del Usuario

Repair work may only be carried out by specialist workshops that use original TIGRIP spare
parts. The inspection (mainly consisting of a visual inspection and a function check) must
determine that all safety devices are complete and fully operational and cover the condition of
the unit, suspension, equipment and supporting structure with regard to damage, wear,
corrosion or any other alterations.
Initial operation and recurring inspections must be documented (e.g. in the CMCO works
certificate of compliance).
If required, the results of inspections and appropriate repairs must be verified.
Paint damage should be touched up in order to avoid corrosion. All joints and sliding surfaces
should be slightly lubricated. In the case of heavy contamination, the unit must be cleaned.
The load lifting attachment must no longer be used in the case of wear in the bearing points
which is indicated by large play in the joints of the suspension eye, fish plates or clamping jaw.
Repair, i.e. replacement of the worn components is absolutely necessary, if the play between
clamping jaw and suspension eye exceeds 3 mm. Play is checked by holding the clamping jaw
with one hand and by moving the suspension eye back and forth in pulling direction with the
other. Before this check, disengage the spring.
Repairs may only be carried out by specialist workshops that use original TIGRIP spare
parts.
After repairs have been carried out and after extended periods of non-use, the load lifting
attachment must be inspected again before it is put into service again.
The inspections have to be initiated by the operating company.
