10、l.5.1.2 A receiving procedure shall be in effect so thatincoming material is checked against purchasing specifica-tions.5.1.3 A procedure shall be in effect so that material in stockcan be properly identified for future use.5.1.4 Documentation on any material, process, or compo-nents certified shall
11、 be filed for reference.5.2 A procedure will be in effect to ensure that the finalassembly of each product has a permanent date code indicatingits date of manufacture.5.2.1 A date code shall be located on each final productassembly.5.2.2 The date code shall include as a minimum the last digitof the
12、year and a code for the month or the week. (Example: forMarch, 2009 “39” or “C9” or “93” or “9C”.) Any code thatis logical, consistent and able to be decoded by the manufac-turer is acceptable. Any product in production for ten years ormore with no changes will be required to add a third number soth
13、at the last two digits of the year are known.5.2.3 Date codes shall be made permanent.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F08 on SportsEquipment, Playing Surfaces, and Facilities and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee F08.18 on Treestands.Current edition approved Dec.
