The inspection and tests shall include operation of control devices, speed-limiting devices, brakes and other safety equipment. The inspection shall be made each day the ride is open to the public;

(B) Tests recommended by the manufacturer, to include but not limited to nondestructive testing, shall be recorded and a copy made available to the division and/or contracted qualified inspector. Evidence of satisfactory test results shall be recorded on a form or statement by one (1) of the following:
1. The manufacturer of the ride;

2. An insurance carrier lawfully doing business in Missouri and carrying public liability insurance on the ride; or

3. A registered licensed professional engineer; and

(C) A complete history file, to include current owner's manual, any operational manuals or maintenance guides, complete maintenance, inspection, accident, and testing records for each amusement ride shall be maintained by the company for at least three (3) years. The current year's history file shall be available on-site and the owner shall make such records available to the division or his/her designee or qualified inspector upon request. Failure to have, maintain, or make available for review the materials described above constitutes grounds for the division to temporarily suspend a ride's operating permit during the term of failure or refusal.
