Other observations
  • The pull-cord line (red) runs from the drive-end enclosure top to beyond the stop button; its tension and condition cannot be confirmed from this image.
  • The yellow mesh panel covers only a mid-span section of the conveyor; the rest of the underside is open to view.

Recorded on the report as notes. No cue, so no rule consumes them.
