Checking Tensioner Parts and Performance

In-service inspections are those carried out by the driver, user, or other qualified persons who have received the necessary training.

The following checks should be included. The table below includes important checks and maintenance activities that will help to control the hazards involved with tensioner usage.

The Maxibinder tensioners have spare parts available from Tegral Transport Equipment, therefore replacement of the parts is often undertaken considering the cost-benefit relationship.
