• Hydraulic oil leakage at any threaded or clamped joint that cannot be

eliminated by normal tightening.

• Evidence of excessive abrasion or scrubbing on the outer surface of

hose or hoses.

Important: When tightening loose lines or connections, use two wrenches to

avoid twisting hose or tubes. Tighten loose connections only until the
leak stops. An over-tightened fitting may result in overstressing and/or
cracking. Replace any connectors that continue to leak. See
“Hydraulic Fitting Torques” in Section 3 for torque specifications for
hydraulic fittings and hydraulic line connections.
