The asphalt calibration tank requires a minimal amount of maintenance.  The components are installed and removed as necessary during the asphalt calibration procedure. A. Inspection 1. Inspect  the  electrical  cable  and  the  load  cell  for  damage.    A  damaged  cable  will  not  provide  an  accurate reading.  Repair or replace the cable and/or the load cell as necessary. 2. Inspect the chains and links on which the tank is suspended.  Replace these if they are damaged. 3. Inspect the tank.  If a large build up of asphalt has accumulated inside the tank,  steam clean the tank to remove the build up.  Check the support straps for cracks or damage.  Repair as required. 4. Inspect  the  calibration  weight  supports.    If  these  are  bent,  cracked  or  show  any  damage,  remove  the weights and repair as required. 5. Inspect the complete frame.  Look for cracks, damage or bent  components.    Repair  any  damaged  areas. The frame cannot contact the tank during the calibration process and therefore cannot be bent. page 3-1233
