CAUTION
Hydraulic hoses are subject to extreme conditions such
as, pressure differentials during operation and exposure
to weather, sun, chemicals, very warm storage condi­
tions or mishandling during operation or maintenance.
These conditions can cause damage or premature de­
terioration. Some hoses, such as reel motor hoses, are
more susceptible to these conditions than others. In­
When replacing a hydraulic hose, be sure that the hose
