Storage and management


1. Management measures
Clear labeling:
Each wheel chock should be marked with size, load-bearing capacity and usage status (such as "available", "pending maintenance").

Regular inspection:
Inspect the stored wheel chocks monthly to ensure that they are not damaged, aged or deformed.

Inventory management:
Establish an inventory list of wheel chocks to record quantity, specifications, storage location and usage.

Smart management:
Use RFID tags or QR code management systems to track the status and location of wheel chocks in real time.

2. Use and return
Pre-use inspection:
Inspect the surface and structure of the wheel chocks before each use to ensure that there is no damage.

Proper placement:
Ensure that the wheel chocks fit tightly against the aircraft tires to prevent sliding.

Return process:
Clean the wheel chocks after use and check their status, and return them to the designated storage area.
