Maintenance & Servicing – Circular Muck Skip MS 1224

To keep your Circular Muck Skip MS 1224 operating safely and extending its service life, we recommend the following simple but effective maintenance practices:

- Clean after use: Remove debris, concrete, or waste build-up inside the skip and around the pivot and locking finger mechanism to prevent blockages.

- Inspect safety locking fingers: Check they engage and release properly and are free from excessive wear or damage.

- Check the lifting eye and bar: Ensure the central lifting eye and bar are free from cracks, deformation, or weld defects.

- Lubricate moving parts: Apply light lubrication to pivot points and hinges to maintain smooth automatic tipping.

- Monitor structural integrity: Look for corrosion, dents, or distortion to the skip body, particularly around the base and stress points.

- Check rated load markings: Confirm the SWL markings remain visible and legible.

In line with PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations), the MS 1224 muck skip should be inspected by a competent person at least once every 12 months.
