Maintenance Logbook
This is the record in which every check, replacement and fault intervention carried out on the remote control set is written down together with its date. It is not a one-off document but a trend tracking tool: a repeat of the same fault, a shortening shift duration and increasingly frequent gasket changes only become visible through the record.
Without a record every fault looks like an independent event. Only the record shows that terminals have been retightened three times in three months on the same receiver; this points to a mounting problem caused by vibration, and the solution is not to tighten the terminals but to change the mounting.
- On every line: the date, the machine and set identity, the operation performed, the finding, the part replaced, the person who did the work.
- Also record: the result of the no-load function test, the shift duration worked on a battery, and the distance and conditions at which the range measurement was made.
- Pairing records: the number and serial numbers of the transmitters taught to the receiver; this list is the basis when a lost transmitter has to be erased from memory.
- Spare parts: the replacement dates of gaskets, antennas and batteries also feed stock planning.
The record works together with the periodic maintenance list and the function test; the list says what is to be done, the logbook says what was done.
