Commission under no-load and controlled-load conditions. |
|---|---|
| Maintenance Tips | Inspect pushbuttons, joysticks, contactors, relays, sensors, cables, seals, and enclosure heaters regularly. Check terminals for corrosion or looseness, test emergency stops and interlocks, calibrate load sensors as specified, and keep hydraulic or electrical control components clean and dry. |
| Safety Notes | Isolate and lock out electrical and hydraulic energy before maintenance. Never bypass overload protection, emergency stops, brakes, or interlocks. Keep personnel clear of mooring lines and snap-back zones, maintain communication with the mooring team, and operate within the winch and line safe working limits. |
