3. Example of the damages or wastage equipment found on board of ships by the maintenance inspector and the safety authorities.

4. REASON FOR PM Planned maintenance must be “preventive maintenance” The motto is “ prevention is better than cure” This is done to maintain the vessel and ensure equipment's are in good operating conditions by the necessary continuous assessments and actions Equipment, such as a component part, is replaced before the entire unit break down 4

5. REASON FOR PM In general, systematic maintenance should means fewer breakdowns and repairs Planned maintenance ensures the reliability of equipment A plan ensures that the crew is working to maximum efficiency The plan continuously assesses the efficiency of equipment and all aspects of its maintenance 5

6. REASON FOR PM A good plan ensures that no areas of the vessel or items of equipment are neglected or overlooked Well maintained equipment presents fewer hazard to the crew Well maintained equipment will last longer and so reduce capital expenses for the ship owner The ship will be ready to undergo survey at short notice 6

7. REASON FOR PM Planned maintenance ensures that the rate of deterioration of equipment is continually monitored, assessed, and to some extend controlled A well documented plan ensures that the new personnel are aware of the maintenance situation Planned maintenance can reduce or prevent the need for costly shore labor 7

8. Impact if not using planned maintenance Accidents Reduced Productivity Interrupted Workflow Increased spare parts and inventory costs Increased overhead

9. Construction of Planned Maintenance Schedule 9

10. Construction on PM Planned maintenance need not involve extensive paperwork but some basic points should be borne in mind: A PLAN must be adaptable to various weather conditions The plan must be flexible so that changes of orders or cargoes do not upset it unduly The length of voyages, routes and trades that the vessel is involved in operation must be considered The maintenance of safety equipment and emergency team training should be integrated with the overall maintenance plan 10

11. Construction on PM.. cont The plan should be constructed so that the appropriate equipment is brought up to the optimum condition for statutory and classification surveys such as “safety equipment”, and “load line” and “lifting appliances” Drydocking and repair periods should be integrated with the plan Manufacturers’ advice should be complied with, and all manufacturers’ maintenance logs should be completed 11

12. Construction on PM.. cont The plan should include the availability of appropriate equipment for “breakdown” maintenance due to unforeseen circumstances A provision must be made for spare and part replacement due to wear and tear maintenance. There should also be a method for ordering spares as soon as replacement items are used. The plan must be carefully thought out, well controlled, and an efficient recording system must be kept up to date 12

15. How to make it effective ??

16. PM ( For general cargo vessel ) Short Term Maintenance Weekly inspection and greasing (when possible) Wheels on steel hatch covers Winches and windlass Ventilation system flaps and ventilators Anchor securing arrangements Cleats on external weather tight doors Sounding and air pipes 16

17. PM ( For general cargo vessel ) Short Term Maintenance Fortnightly inspection and greasing Accommodation ladder and gangway Life boat falls All lifebuoys Fire hydrants and monitors Life raft securing arrangements All external electric cables and deck- lighting arrangement 17

18. PM ( For general cargo vessel ) Short Term Maintenance Monthly inspection and greasing where necessary Fire detection systems Breathing apparatus and associated equipment Ladders and ventilation posts Fire filters 18

19. PLANNED MAINTENANCE Long Term Maintenance  Three-month interval inspection  Six-month interval inspection  Yearly inspection 19

20. PLANNED MAINTENANCE Long Term Maintenance Three-monthly inspection  All cargo gear  Navigation light connections  Hold ventilation systems 20

21. PLANNED MAINTENANCE Long Term Maintenance Six-monthly inspection  Cargo winches  Fresh water tanks  All running gears, blocks and derricks  Hold equipment 21

22. PLANNED MAINTENANCE Long Term Maintenance Yearly inspection  Rust and repaint derricks  Watertight seals on hatchways  Cleaning and painting of storerooms, cabins and mess rooms  Lubricate all anchor parts 22

23. PLANNED MAINTENANCE Operational Maintenance (To be carried out when necessary)  Anchor cable markings  Check mooring ropes and wires before and after use  Check anchor and cables stowed properly 23

24. PLANNED MAINTENANCE  Pilot ladders and hoists, gangways, accommodation ladders  Test fire fighting appliances before entering ports  Cargo securing arrangements  All cargo gears and hatch closing arrangements  Clean holds, remove all stains 24

26. Maintenance of Cargo-Handling Equipment The appropriate regulation for cargo-handling equipment are in the Merchant Shipping Hatches and Lifting Plant Regulation ( 1 January 1989) 1) Routine Maintenance 2) Testing of Lifting Plants 3) Examination of Lifting Plants 26

27. Maintenance of Cargo-Handling Equipment 1. Routine Maintenance It is clearly pointed out that the requirement for maintenance means that the lifting plant should be kept in good working order, in an efficient state and in good repair.” Safety devices fitted to lifting appliances should be checked by the operator before work starts and at regular intervals there after to ensure that they are working properly 27

28. Maintenance of Cargo-Handling Equipment 1. Routine Maintenance Wire ropes should also be regularly inspected and treated with suitable lubricants. Particular care should be taken with the application of the lubricant to ensure that it penetrates the wire so that internal corrosion, as well as external corrosion, will be prevented. Wire ropes should never be permitted to dry out. 28

29. Maintenance of Cargo-Handling Equipment 2. Testing of Lifting Plants No lifting appliance shall be used unless it has been suitably tested by a competent person within the preceding five years Most of the lifting appliances will be tested by means of a static test by dynamometer 29

30. 3. Examination of Lifting Plant Lifting plant must be thoroughly examined by a competent person. No lifting plant shall be used unless it has thoroughly been examined at least once in every 12 month period. Chief officer could be considered to be a competent person 30

31. All grease nipples on winches, blocks derrick heels, and cranes and similar equipment should be attended to weekly Inspection on ancillary equipment such as chains, rings, hooks, blocks, and shackles every three months A thorough overhaul of the above equipment every 6 months 31

32. Care and maintenance of pilot ladders and hoists The ladder must be in one (1) continuous length. The practice of having a short ladder for the loaded passage, which was then shackled to another length to make a long ladder for the light ship passage, is not permitted The step must be made of hardwood or other material of equivalent strength and the four lowest steps may be of rubber or similar materials 32

33. Care and maintenance of pilot ladders and hoists The steps must be in one piece and if made of wood must be knot free. They must have a non-slip surface and the dimensions should be not less than 480 mm long, 115 mm wide, and 25 mm in depth. All the steps should be the same distance apart the equal spacing should not be less than 300 mm, and not more than 380 mm, and they must be secured in such a manner as to remain horizontal. 33
