Part 4— Commissioning, operation and asset management
In the absence of AS 4324.4, the manufacture and construction of the equipment should be carried out to Standards as defined by Appendix B. Where no Standards are defined, the Standards used for, or referred to by, the design shall be used.
Appropriate and sufficient detail and instruction shall be provided such that the manufacture and construction can achieve the design requirements.
Commissioning requirements shall be as defined by Appendix B.  
Operation and asset management (post-supply) should be carried out in accordance with the operating and maintenance manuals, as a minimum .

2. An extract from AS2550.1 7.3 INSPECTION 7.3.1 General
Inspections shall be carried out at sufficient frequency to ensure the crane is kept in a safe and satisfactory condition. Inspections shall be carried out in conformance with this Standard, the appropriate part of AS 2550 and instructions written in accordance with this Standard. All such work shall be noted in the records.
Inspection shall be as follows:
(a) Pre-operational inspection.
(b) Routine inspection.
(c) Periodic third-party inspections.
(d) Major inspection.

3. An extract from AS2550.1 7.3.2 Pre-operation inspection
Before the commencement of each work shift, the crane shall be given a visual inspection
and functional test. The visual and functional tests may be carried out by the operator with
the intention of identifying obvious damage.
The inspection and test should include the following:
(a) Operating and emergency controls.
(b) Brakes.
(c) Safety switches and interlocks.
(d) Structure.
(e) Wire ropes to ensure they are on the drum and correctly reeved on the sheave.
Any personal protective equipment should also be inspected for correct function.
Identified safety-related problems shall be rectified and recorded prior to using a crane.

4. An extract from AS2550.1 7.3.3 Routine inspection
Routine inspection shall be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
NOTE: The inspection should include all items specified in instructions written in accordance with this Standard for routine inspections, including the following:
(a) All functions and their controls for speed, smoothness of operation and limits of motion.
(b) All emergency and safety switches and interlocks.
(c) Lubrication of all moving parts, inspection of filter element/s and fluid levels.
(d) Visual inspection and measurements, as necessary, of structural members and other critical
components such as brakes, gears, fasteners, pins, shafts, wire ropes, sheaves, locking
devices, electrical contactors, wear on wheels and rails.
(e) Signage, including warning signs and control markings.
(f) Checking electrical, mechanical and structural components for safe condition and function.
(g) Additional items nominated in the instructions written in accordance with this Standard.
Particular attention should be paid to any component with a recent or existing history of
repeated failures.

5. An extract from AS2550.1 7.3.4 Periodic third-party inspections
Each crane shall undergo a periodic third-party inspection to provide independent advice on whether the level of maintenance and repairs are in accordance with this Standard. The frequency of periodic third-party inspection shall be based on the working environment and the frequency and severity of use of the crane.
NOTE: The periods specified in Table F1 of Appendix F should not be exceeded.
The inspection shall include all items specified in instructions written in accordance with this Standard and include all items specified by the manufacturer for annual inspection together with all routine inspection and maintenance items (see Clause 7.3.3).
As part of this inspection, the maintenance records of the crane shall be reviewed prior to the inspection. After the inspection, a report on the current condition of the crane shall be compiled.
NOTE: The usage of the crane should be verified for consistency with the design classification.
Particular attention should be given to the following:
(a) Past state of loading and utilization as compared to the crane classifications.
(b) Future intended state of loading and utilization as required by the user of the crane.

6. An extract from AS2550.1
7.3.5 Major inspection
Cranes shall be subjected to a major inspection to assess their suitability for continued safe operation as follows:
(a) Unless assessed in accordance with Section 9 to determine when a major inspection is
due, after two-thirds of the design life specified by the manufacturer or the original
design Standard or, where this is unknown after 7 years of use.
(b) When an old crane is to be recommissioned and previous operating records do not
exist or the Standard to which it was designed and built is unknown.
The major inspection shall involve examination of those critical components identified by the manufacturer, competent person or the assessment conducted in accordance with Section 9. Where necessary, the crane shall be stripped down and paint, grease and corrosion removed from critical components to allow a complete and thorough inspection.
