Italian term or phrase: non a norma
Per il sollevamento della macchina si può ricorrere all’impiego di un carro elevatore, tenendo presente di rispettare i seguenti accorgimenti:
· Prima di sollevare la macchina accertarsi che il montacarichi e le imbracature siano di portata adeguata ed in buono stato.
·Non devono essere utilizzati mezzi o sistemi di sollevamento che non rispondano alle caratteristiche di sicurezza richieste quali:
- Caratteristiche costruttive alterate dall’uso.
- Funi o cavi non a norma.
- Funi o cavi usurati.
- Caratteristiche del sollevatore non idonee (esempio orche corte).
- Capacità di sollevamento inferiore al peso macchina.
Off-standard is not the right translation. Can you suggest something better ?
Thank you in advance
