The contractor will be required to visit each property and inspect, maintain and service the equipment following which a detailed inspection report should be issued. The contractor should also undertake an annual load test on the fixed and mobile hoists (as a minimum tested with maximum load) at the same time as the maintenance and inspection visit, the results of the load test must be recorded on the inspection report. The contractor should also supply and replace lifting belts to the fixed hoists every 2 years, followed by a load test and relevant inspections.
