General visual inspection.
Visual and aural inspection of the machine, accessories and location for damage, abnormal noise, inappropriate siting.
Lid
Ensure the lid latch operates correctly, and particularly, that the lid cannot be opened, with reasonable effort, while latched.
Inspect and lubricate lid hinges and latching components.
Adjust lid support hinges.
