INSPECTING YOUR PRODUCT
Klime-Ezee Ltd.
Your safety, along with the safety of those around you, relies on the condition of your equipment. This is why it is essential to inspect your product before every use. Regular checks help identify any issues that could lead to potential hazards during operation.
In addition to daily inspections, a full maintenance inspection must be completed every six months. Being consistent and proactive with equipment checks not only ensures user safety but also helps extend the life of the product.
Below are some key things to look out for during both your daily and six-monthly inspections. Any of these issues can present a serious risk to the operator. If any are identified during your daily check, the unit should be taken out of use immediately and a full inspection carried out before it is used again.
