Mounting and dismounting hydraulic hoses
Hint!
As a matter of principle follow to the following advice when
mounting and dismounting hydraulic hoses:
•
Only use original-AMAZONE hydraulic hoses!
•
Always ensure cleanliness.
•
As a matter of principle install the hydraulic hoses in such a
way, that – in all operational conditions -
ο
the hose is not under tension, except for its own weight
ο
short hoses are not upset.
ο
exterior mechanic affects on the hydraulic hoses are
avoided.
the hoses are arranged and affixed properly to prevent
the hoses from rubbing on components or against each
other. If necessary secure the hydraulic hoses by using
guard covers. Cover sharp edged components.
ο
the permissible bending radius is observed.
•
When connecting a hydraulic hose with moving parts, en-
sure that in the entire range of movement the hose length
ensures that the smallest permissible bending radius is
maintained and/or the hydraulic hose is not tensioned.
•
Affix the hydraulic hoses on the fixing points given. Avoid
hose fixings where they would hinder the natural movement
and length change of the hose.
•
It is forbidden to paint hydraulic hoses.
