Hydraulic Hoses
Hydraulic hoses are subject to extreme conditions such
as, pressure differentials during operation and exposure
to weather, sun, chemicals, very warm storage condi
tions or mishandling during operation or maintenance.
These conditions can cause damage or premature de
terioration. Some hoses, such as reel motor hoses, are
more susceptible to these conditions than others. In
spect the hoses frequently for signs of deterioration or
damage.
CAUTION
Before disconnecting or performing any work
on the hydraulic system, all pressure in the
system must be relieved by stopping the en�
gine and opening the bypass valve.
Keep body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject hydraulic fluid un�
der high pressure. Use paper or cardboard,
not hands, to search for leaks. Hydraulic fluid
escaping under pressure can have sufficient
force to penetrate the skin and do serious
damage. If fluid is injected into the skin, it
must be surgically removed within a few
hours by a doctor familiar with this type of
injury or gangrene may result.
When replacing a hydraulic hose, be sure that the hose
isstraight(nottwisted)beforetighteningthefittings.This
can be done by observing the imprint on the hose. Use
two wrenches; one to hold the hose straight and one to
tighten the hose swivel nut onto the fitting.
