The crane will be designed in order to minimize maintenance and make unavoidable maintenance safe, quick and easy. In order to minimize the frequency of maintenance, the temporary table of inspection and maintenance of crane components, contained in the offer documentation, must be drawn up in terms of previous engineering experience and subsequent improvements. The final table, which will be coherent with the temporary one, will be included in the instruction and maintenance manual and will be contractually binding. Each crane component must be configured according to the following maintenance requirements: The components to be maintained and/or inspected must be easily accessible with minimum disassembly; all guards covering components must be hinged and have quick locking systems and stays for their open positions. Every component must be easy to handle and equipped with hooks to allow them to be properly balanced when lifted. Components which need frequent maintenance must be easily accessible and they must not need special tools
All equipment shall be designed such that all components are easily accessible for inspection, repair and maintenance
The arrangement shall make all parts available for easy and fast maintenance
