The Operator's Manual states that a pre-operation inspection should be conducted to check the following components or areas for damage and improperly installed or missing parts, including nuts, bolts and other fasteners and to be sure that all structural and other critical components are present and all associated fasteners and pins are in place and properly tightened.
