Example: temporary cover around a fixed maintenance slot

When maintenance has a fixed start time, explain whether temporary air needs to be connected and checked beforehand. Identify the loads that must continue, the connection point and who can release the work area for installation. Include any separate time for disconnecting the hire equipment after the main system returns.

  • When must temporary air be ready for use?
  • Which loads remain active during maintenance?
  • Who confirms the unloading area is clear before arrival?

Choosing equipment for the job

For a maintenance slot covering a working shift, describe the duty and any load changes in a screw hire enquiry. Include the process pressure rather than only the old machine’s size.
