Startup/10 Hour
CMW
Check Hydraulic Hoses
Check hydraulic hoses for leaks before startup and
every 10 hours of operation.
Fluid or air pressure could pierce skin and cause injury or
death. Stay away.
To help avoid injury:
•
Use a piece of cardboard or wood, rather than hands, to search for leaks.
•
Wear protective clothing, including gloves and eye protection.
•
Before disconnecting a hydraulic line, turn engine off and operate all controls to relieve pressure.
•
Lower, block, or support any raised component with a hoist.
•
Cover connection with heavy cloth and loosen connector nut slightly to relieve residual pressure.
Catch all fluid in a container.
•
Before using system, check that all connections are tight and all lines are undamaged.
•
If you are injured, seek immediate medical attention from a doctor familiar with this type of injury.
