Your overhead lifting equipment is a key part of your operation, and a lot of hard work is tossed its way. It is vital to your business and more importantly, vital to the safety of your employees that your hard-working equipment is inspected and found to be in proper working order.

Why is this so important?

First and foremost, the safety of operators and those nearby the operation of the equipment is at stake. Faulty or worn equipment can mean decreased production at best, but disaster at worst.

Trolley rails wear down, brakes lose their effectiveness over time, and even controls can malfunction. Regular inspections can catch these types of problems before they hamper your business. Inspections also keep you up to date with OSHA requirements. Depending on the use and type of your particular piece of equipment, OSHA requires that it be inspected anywhere from semi-annually to quarterly.
