Hoses
It is false economy to try and make a damaged hose last a bit longer, because a failure can spill a lot of oil on the
road endangering traffic, the environment and costing money. To reduce the risk of this happening and ensure a
long life from the hoses, follow the guidelines below. On a weekly basis:
Check that all hoses and their connections are in good condition and that there are no leaks or
damage. Replace any hose that is leaking or damaged.
Check to see that hoses are not and have not been chafing against sharp edges. If evidence of
chafing is found then inspect for damage and if found replace. Re-route any hose that has been
chafing using the guidance given in Section 3.9.3.
Check to ensure that hoses are fitted without kinks or sharp bends using the guidance given in Section
3.9.
If in doubt about the condition of any hose replace. When replacing hoses, be sure to tighten to the
correct torque setting, see Table 3.1.
WARNING!
Relieve hydraulic pressure before disconnecting lines or working on the machine. This can
be done by pulling/pushing the selected tractor lever/button.
