(c) Satisfy themselves by a thorough examination inside and out and by a hammer test after the hydrostatic pressure that the boilers are well made and of good and suitable material;

(d) See that the openings for the passage of water and steam respectively and all pipes and tubes exposed to heat are of proper dimensions and free from obstruction;

(e) See that the flues are circular in form;

(f) Satisfy themselves that the friction (fire line) of the furnace is at least two inches below the prescribed minimum water line of the boiler;

(g) See that the arrangements for delivering the feed water are such that the boilers cannot be injured thereby ;

(h) Satisfy themselves that such boilers and their steam
connections may be safely employed without peril
to life;

(i) See that the safety valves are of suitable dimensions
