Crane Inspections and preventative care

To keep your crane compliant with Australian Standards, an inspection/service should be carried out on a basis governed by classification and usage of your equipment.

Having a Crane Aid technician carry out your routine inspection keeps you informed of the wear and tear of your asset as well as its compliance with the current Australian Standards.

The asset’s service is then followed up by one of our friendly Service office staff, providing you with a quotation for repairs to ensure your equipment stays at a reliable operating level.
