Inspection List
Exterior Inspection
Below is a list of routine inspections which should be done to ensure optimal ramp performance and prevent excessive wear leading to poor operation and possible component failure. Refer to the speci- fied pages within this manual for further details. These ramp inspections should be performed if the ramp has unusual malfunctions, the bus is undergo-
ing routine service, or after every 500 completed cycles, whichever comes first. If the ramp fails to operate at a satisfactory level after performing these inspections and the accompanying adjustment or course of action, please contact your local Braun distributor or The Braun Corporation’s Product Sup- port Department for further assistance.
