Annual equipment inspections are one of the most effective ways to identify safety concerns and mechanical issues before they become costly problems.

Over time, even well-maintained equipment can develop issues that aren't obvious during normal operation.

Annual inspections help identify concerns such as:
- Structural cracks or fatigue
- Hydraulic leaks
- Worn pins and bushings
- Electrical issues
- Safety device malfunctions
- Improper repairs or modifications
- Missing decals and warning labels
- Expired dielectric test certifications
- Damaged outrigger pads
- Worn hoses
- Inoperative safety alarms
- Incomplete maintenance documentation

Finding these issues early can prevent downtime, costly repairs, and unsafe equipment.

📞To schedule an inspection call us at 800-824-6704 or visit our contact page: https://www.runnionequipment.com/contact-us

Tech Tip from the Shop: Annual Inspections Start with Daily Inspections
Before leaving the yard, take a few minutes to check:
- Hydraulic oil level
- Outrigger pads and controls
- Safety decals
- Warning alarms
- Lights and reflectors
- Visible structural damage

When a truck goes down, most companies immediately think about the repair bill. While repair costs are certainly important, they're often just a small part of the overall financial impact. Preventive maintenance remains the most effective tool for minimizing unexpected failures.

Equipment downtime can result in:
- Lost productivity
- Scheduling disruptions
- Overtime expenses
- Diminished customer relationships

Preventative maintenance practices:
- Complete daily walk-around inspections
- Address small hydraulic leaks before they become major repairs
- Monitor battery and charging system performance
- Schedule annual inspections on time
- Keep maintenance records current
- Train operators to recognize early warning signs

Looking to do some preventative maintenance on your equipment? Schedule an inspection with our service team today 800-824-6704.
