Leakage

General

NB! Leakage can cause serious mechanical break-
downs and an increased risk of slipping. Wash the
machine regularly to increase the chance of detecting
leakage at an early stage. Deal with leaks as quickly as
possible and refi ll if necessary.

Hydraulic fl uid

Leakage of hydraulic fl uid leads to an increased risk of
dirt getting into the hydraulic system which can lead
to breakdowns and mechanical damage. If you detect
hydraulic fl uid underneath the machine or on the base
plate it is probably due to leakage.

• Check for leakage at the hose connectors, cou-

plings and cylinders. Leakage can also occur at
other hydraulic components and can manifest itself
with a strip of dirt.

Cracks

General

A clean machine makes it easier to detect cracks.

The greatest risk of crack formation is:

• At weld seams

• At holes or sharp corners

Lower part

• Check in particular whether cracks have appeared

around outrigger mountings both on the lower part
and on the outriggers, gear ring mounting and weld
seams between the machine body and the track
sides.

Arm system

• Check in particular whether cracks have appeared

on the arm system’s joints, cylinder mountings and
weld seams.
