•
Installation requirements not complied with.
•
Life span of 6 years has been exceeded.
The date of manufacture of the hydraulic hose line on the
assembly is decisive for determining these six years. If the date
of manufacture on the assembly is "2008", then the hose should
not be used beyond February 2014. See also "Labelling of
hydraulic hose lines".
12.6.1.4 Installation and removal of hydraulic hose lines
When installing and removing hydraulic hose lines, always observe
the following information:
•
Only use original AMAZONE hydraulic hose lines.
•
Ensure cleanliness.
•
You must always install the hydraulic lines so that, in all states of
operation:
ο
There is no tension, apart from the hose's own weight.
ο
There is no possibility of jolting on short lengths.
ο
Outer mechanical influences on the hydraulic hose lines are
avoided.
Use appropriate arrangements and fixing to prevent any
scouring of the hoses on components or on each other. If
necessary, secure hydraulic hose lines using protective
covers. Cover sharp-edged components.
ο
The approved bending radii may not be exceeded.
•
When connecting a hydraulic hose line to moving parts, the hose
length must be appropriate so that the smallest approved
bending radius is not undershot over the whole area of
movement and/or the hydraulic hose line is not over-tensioned.
•
Fix the hydraulic hose lines to the intended fixing points. There,
avoid hose clips, which impair the natural movement and length
changes of the hose.
•
It is forbidden to paint over hydraulic hose lines!
