Section 13-2. Times for inspection by a competent enterprise

Inspection of work equipment by a competent enterprise as stated in Section 13-1 shall be carried out:
  • -
    every 12 months;
  • -
    when the work equipment has not been used for the past 6 months and putting it back into service may be associated with a risk to life or health;
  • -
    when more frequent inspections are required because of the environment in which the work equipment is located;
  • -
    when the work equipment has been significantly overloaded, and
  • -
    following major repairs or alterations.
Inspections by an enterprise of competence can be carried out at more infrequent intervals when it can be documented that this will not entail any risk to life or health and the expert finds that it is completely safe.
