1 General information
The purpose of this list is to provide the technicians, team leaders, SQA staff, regional managers and the Technical Service Officer in charge with an over-
view of the essential limits for equipment used by the service technicians. If there are any doubts concerning the values, always contact the supervisor in
charge first.
The list is divided into a general section which applies to various equipment categories and special sections that provide more detailed information concern-
ing particular equipment, materials, etc.
The priority section indicates the time period in which the defect has to be remedied. As a general rule, defects/problems should be repaired/resolved as
soon as possible. If it is not possible to repair/eliminate the defect within the specified time period, the respective equipment must be taken out of service
until the problem has been resolved. In any case, it is essential to contact the supervisor or the Technical Service Officer in charge.
"Inspection due" date is the month listed. Beyond the listed month "Inspection has expired" (no longer valid). If an exact shelf life / usability date is marked
on the product, this is the expiry date.
For particular items (e.g. eye wash bottle) it is also necessary to file an incident report because if the item was used, it is generally because an incident or
accident happened.
2 Safety instructions

tional regulations.
