In today’s post, we’ll review what kind of damage to look for when inspecting forklift chains and identifying when the chain should be replaced.
Would you back out of a driveway without checking for obstacles behind you? Or fly with an airline where the flight crew used飞行前检查表“most of the time”?Of course not!
