EN 12644-1:2001+A1:2008 (E) 5 NOTE Informative annex ZA provides information regarding relevant EU directives, European and International Standards. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard the terms and definitions given in EN 1070:1998 and the following apply. 3.1 check visual and functional assessment (not a test) of the condition of the crane without dismantling.
3.2 crane driver person operating the crane for the purpose of handling loads.
3.3 examination verification that the crane can safely continue in service including a functional test of all safety devices i.e. limiting, indicating equipment, brakes, clutches etc to verify that they operate within the required tolerances. An examination is more thorough than an inspection.
3.4 inspection looking at the crane for defects and checking the operation of the controls, limiting and indicating devices without loading the crane. This is much more than a check but does not normally require any part of the crane to be dismantled other than removal or opening of cover(s) or housing(s).
3.5 instruction handbook principal means by which the manufacturer provides information or instructions on how the crane has to be used.
3.6 rated capacity load(s) that the crane is designed to lift for a given operating condition (e.g. configuration, position of load).
3.7 service conditions
3.7.1 in-service crane in use handling or preparing to handle loads up to the rated capacity in conditions as specified by the manufacturer.
3.7.2 out-of-service crane out of use, without load and left in conditions as specified by the manufacturer.
3.8 test specific operation of the crane with or without a defined load in order to establish whether the crane is fit for use.
3.9 use any operation with or on the crane e.g. transportation, erection, dismantling, maintenance, movements of the load. SIST EN 12644-1:2001+A1:2008
