11.2.13. DO NOT PERFORM HEATING OR WELDING NEAR HYDRAULIC AND
FLEXIBLE PIPES
Never heat, weld, saw, chisel or use
autogenously cutting near hydraulic pipes or
any other flammable elements, for example
fuel, paint or petrol.
During performing welding disconnect tractor
accumulator and protect pipes (mainly rubber
pipes) in order not to be damaged which can
lead to losing of oil or hydraulic fluid. The
heating near hydraulic pipes with high pressure
can cause accidental punctuation.
The leaking oil may break into flames and
cause serious injuries or even death.
11.2.14. DO NOT OPEN HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATORS!
The plough is equipped with such an accumulator which function as a dash-pot or
hydraulic safety element.
These accumulators have been charged under pressure industrially with nitrogen.

If you do not follow rules during the reparation it can lead to
the leakage of gas or fluid and cause injury on your skin or in
your eyes.

In some countries every ten years you can ask for the acceptance test
of accumulators under the pressure.
A hydraulic accumulator is a device under the gas pressure. It is
forbidden to change its external form with welding, chiseling, drilling or
other kind of work.
The hydraulic accumulators and their fastening must be in good
condition.
In the case with accumulator you should take all precautions and never exceed the allowed
maximum pressure.
After checking or adjusting there must not be any leakage.
Before putting the pressure in hydraulic pipes back, be sure that every joint is accordingly
fastened.
