INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE (INTRODUCTION)
90 min.
The aim of this lesson is to provide the necessary knowledge foundation for conducting maintenance on the main components on fixed small cranes and hoists in general and enable the participants to take active part in the following practical exercises on inspections and maintenance of cranes and hoists. This lesson builds upon the participants’ previous knowledge and experience with lifting equipment, and it should focus on main components and maintenance tasks in general, while the more technical details of maintaining mechanical, hydraulic and electrical systems will be unfolded in lessons 5, 6, and 7 respectively. Inspection types and requirements will be covered in the practical exercise scenarios.
After having successfully completed this lesson, the participants can:
20) Show interest in common principles for maintaining lifting equipment (Ability, basic level)
21) Take initiative to consult and follow relevant manuals and documents when maintaining lifting equipment (Ability, intermediate level)
When there is lifting equipment available, the participants should experience, touch, and handle this equipment as much as possible; when feasible to support their understanding and learning
Note
The instructor must at all times emphasise the coherence between inspection and maintenance of main components and the related manuals and documents
