Entries in service schedule
If a component is changed which has a change interval prescri‐
bed by the manufacturer, e.g. the toothed belt, the new change
interval begins at the time the component is changed.
•
Therefore it is very important, every time a component is
changed, to document this in the service schedule.
•
This also applies to components which were changed before
the regular change interval.
