Creating a checklist for predictive and preventive maintenance is vital in keeping the facility and equipment running safely and efficiently. Here is a maintenance checklist depending on the type of facility or equipment.
2. Creating a checklist for predictive and preventive maintenance is vital in
keeping facility and equipment running safely and efficiently. Predictive
and preventive maintenance are both planned procedures to keep
assets running smoothly. The main difference is, predictive
maintenance tasks are usually performed when the machines are
running in production mode and preventive maintenance is done when
the machines are shut down.
Predictive maintenance directly monitors the condition and
performance of assets during normal operation to reduce the likelihood
of failures. It attempts to keep costs low by reducing the frequency of
maintenance procedures, unplanned breakdowns and getting rid of
unnecessary preventive maintenance.
Using machine learning and AI (Artificial Intelligence) can track
equipment failures and repairs in order to predict problems that may
occur in the future.
An example would be a vibration analysis of an asset. CMMS can be used
to automatically activate a work order, based on results of predictive
maintenance.
Preventive maintenance is regularly performed on an asset or location to
lessen the likelihood of it failing. It can be set up on a time-based
schedule, such as a monthly inspection, or a usage-based trigger, such as a
car that needs its oil changed every 3000 miles. While a Computerized
Maintenance Management System (CMMS) can help track corrective
maintenance, its strength comes from a well-organized and well-executed
planned maintenance process.
A maintenance checklist will depend on the type of facility and
equipment.

5. • Ensure that adequate space exists between equipment.
• Confirm that safety and caution areas are sufficiently marked.
• Keep walkways and other traffic areas clear of debris and any other
material.
• Guarantee that wires are properly secured and do not present a
hazard.
• Check roof, stairway and walkway railings regularly.
• Inspect structural building elements.
• Comprehensively check and repair building systems .

6. Vehicles
• Check for fuel levels.
• Check fluid levels in the coolant and antifreeze by using gauges or
dipsticks.
• Ensure all safety items like the brakes, horns, and steering are
working properly.
• Schedule regular service sessions for drivability issues like a misfire
and rough idle.
• In case of accidents, refer the respective personnel to get the broken
glass and windows fixed.
• Keep track of when to repair the heaters and air conditioners of all
your vehicles.
• Inspect to get your serpentine belts changed when necessary.
• Examine the batteries and contacts in case of vehicles heating up.
