Tasks include visual checks of barrier plates and decals, verifying motor and gearbox security and oil levels, assessing wear on pins and bushings, and confirming cycle times for E-Up, up, and down operations. It covers controls and indicators such as E-Up buttons, limit switches, power keys, relay lights, traffic lights, and safety loop detectors, plus cleaning and lubrication steps. Technicians confirm master panel condition, user manual availability, and update on-site PM logs, with electronic signature acknowledgment for compliance.
