8.8.4 HOSES AND LINES
Check hydraulic hoses and lines daily for signs
of leaks.
WARNING
• Avoid high-pressure fluids. Escaping
fluid can penetrate the skin causing
serious injury. Relieve pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic lines. Tighten
all connections before applying
pressure. Keep hands and body away
from pin- holes and nozzles which eject
fluids under high pressure.
• If ANY fluid is injected into the skin, it
must be surgically removed within a few
hours by a doctor familiar with this type
of injury or gangrene may result. Use a
piece of cardboard or paper to search
for leaks.
IMPORTANT
Keep hydraulic coupler tips and
connectors clean. Dust, dirt, water and
foreign material are the major causes of
hydraulic system damage. DO NOT
attempt to service hydraulic system in the
field. Precision fits require WHITE ROOM
CARE during overhaul.
