Safety Check-Course
In this slideshow you will take part of how a safety check is preformed correctly

2. The list to perform a Safety Check
The safety check is divided into five parts, every part has to be approved in order for the safety check to be completed.
Three parts includes a check of the pit area and upper platform which is around the simulator.
Two parts include the start up and safety check which is to be made on the computer.
And the last driving check is made with a driver in the drivers seat.
Let´s begin!

4. 1. Inspect ground attachment bolts
Make sure that the white spot on the pawn is aligned to the white spot on the ground everywhere around on all three of the attachments

5. 2. Inspect actuator fixation (top & bottom)
Same as previous, make sure that the white spot on very bolt is near the white spot on the plate, to make sure no bolt has loosened up.

6. 3. Inspect wiring & connectors of all actuators
Check if wiring and connectors are attached and not moving except around its attachment.

7. 4. Inspect computer cabinet
Make sure the computer cabninets are in the right position

8. 5. Inspect stand and its fixation

9. 6. Inspect access bridge and its fixation
There is no bridge, therefore it should look like the picture to the left.

10. 6. Inspect pedalbox wiring & connectors 7. Inspect pedalbox fixation
See if the pedals are fixed and the wiring and connectors are attached.

11. 8. Check brake system for oil leaks 9. Inspect even brake pedal travel
Obs! Check for oil leaks under both cylinders

13. 12. Inspect screen attachements
Make sure the screens are still attached – not moving.

5. Inspect steering wheel 6. Inspect general condition of H-pattern shifter 7. Inspect fixation of H-pattern to upper platform 8. Clean upper platform 5
Check shifter flappy paddle
Then check if the red light is on when you push the flappy paddle. 7

1. Switch on motion system 2. Realese E-stop and press red reset button 3. Start operator computer 1
Switch on motion system
This is how it looks when the E-stop is
realesed and the red button is pushed

6. Check if all computers have Racer running 7. Start a new heat and select demo (no driver)
7.1
7.2
6. If Racer is running then all the screens on the simulator have a black background with the Chalmers logo on the middle screen

24. 8. Inspect if motion is properly working
Motion is when the simulator moves
while driving. It can be turned off so
you can drive without movement.
The motion can be checked by listening for noise
and see that the movement is as expected

25. What to check while testing demo
1. Check if simulator comes up OK 2. Check the car and track loads OK 3. Check if spectator view is OK 4. Check if the platform moves OK
