record establishes “normal condition”. When conducting  future inspections, compare your observations with the

recordtodetermineifacomponentisinnormalconditionorrequiresrepairorreplacement.

Regularinspections andmaintenancearenecessarytokeepthecartinnormalcondition foraslong

aspossible.

Do not use the cart unless it is in normal condition. Complete all necessary replacements and repairs before

returningthecarttoservice.

Step1:Tagthecart“OutofService.”

Step2:Atleastoncepermonth,inspecttheelementslistedbelow.[Referto“PartsDiagrams”onp.3,4.]

Frame: Inspect all welds for cracks. Inspect the metal tubing for damage, warps, and cracks. Payparticular

securelyfastenedtogetherandthattheboltholesintheframearenotelongated,warped,orcracked.

Casters, wheels, and rollers: Check each of the items for excessive wear, cracks, etc. Both casters and both

wheels shouldsolidlycontactthegroundandshould roll smoothlywithoutwobbling. Examine the center

Handleandhandlereceiver: Confirm that the handle is securely fastened to the receiver (bolt and wing

nut). Check the welds that fuse the receiver to the frame. Make sure that the receiver opening is not

elongated,cracked,etc.Examinethehandleforcracks,flattenedregions,andotherdamage.

Step3:Completeallnecessaryrepairs/replacements.Deformities, severecorrosion or rusting, or excessive wear of

any part warrants immediate replacement of that part. DO NOT return the table to service until adjustmentsand
