AM030 - Visual inspection of all fluid lines and electrical cables
Orientation
Depending on the duration of use, usage profile of the machine and different
environmental conditions, it is absolutely necessary to subject all fluid lines and
electrical cables to regular visual inspections. This allows that any faults or problems
can be detected and eliminated early on.
Leave the immediate area around the machine and the additional
units free; do not use it as storage or warehouse space. This
significantly reduces the risk of damage to electrical lines.
Electrical lines routed outside the machine (e.g., lines for cooling lubricant systems,
chip conveyor, and pedal switch) must be regularly checked for damage (e.g.,
pinching or cuts).
Damaged fluid lines may cause leakage of fluids under high
pressure. Be sure to use personal protective equipment during visual
inspection.
Requirement
Should defective points be found on fluid lines or electrical cables during the visual
inspection, the machine must be switched off and the damaged lines or cables must
be promptly replaced.
Replaced fluid lines must be tightened to the torque specified by the
manufacturer.
Procedure
1. Visual inspection of all fluid lines.
2.
Caution
Electrical equipment or parts thereof are under dangerous
voltage.
Electric shock.
Switch off the machine and lock it out.
