Daily Inspections
Before the start of each day’s testing, do a quick inspection of the MTS TestLine system. Following are
typical things that should be checked daily:
•
Check the drip pan and ensure that there are no leaks from the actuator, hydraulic service manifold,
servovalve, or accumulators.
•
Ensure that electrical connections are tight, with no frayed or poorly routed cables.
•
Ensure that hoses are routed properly, they are not wearing, and the fittings are not leaking.

Hoses must be routed as to avoid direct heat sources, moving, or abrasive equipment.
•
Check actuator speed control functionality.
If any problems are encountered, they should be repaired before operating the system.
