WHY MAINTAIN
Economics Responsibility AS3439.1:2002 Clause 5.3 It is the responsibility of the owner of the ASSEMBLY to institute a system of maintenance. The manufacturers recommendations should be addressed, together with the recommendations of AS2467 in a planned AS2467, preventative maintenance programme. This will minimise the risk of injury or breakdown and the f j y consequent human suffering and/or loss of supply.
