7.1.1 Hydraulic System Safety
•
Make sure that all the components in the hydraulic
system are kept clean and in good condition.
•
Make sure all connections are tight, and that lines,
hoses and couplings are not damaged before
applying pressure to the system.
•
Do not use a hand to check for
hydraulic oil leaks. Hydraulic fluid
escaping under pressure can
penetrate the skin causing serious
injury. Use a piece of cardboard.
•
Wear proper hand and eye
protection when searching for a
high pressure hydraulic leak.
•
Seek medical attention immediately if injured by
a concentrated high-pressure stream of hydraulic
fluid. Serious infection or toxic reaction can
develop from hydraulic fluid piercing the skin
surface.
•
Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the
hydraulic lines, fittings or hoses by using tape,
clamps or cements. Doing so can cause sudden
failure and create a hazardous and unsafe
condition.
•
Relieve pressure on the hydraulic system before
working it. The hydraulic system operates under
extremely high pressure.
•
Replace any hydraulic hose immediately that
shows signs of swelling, wear, leaks or damage
before it bursts.
•
Do not bend or strike high-pressure lines, tubes
or hoses, or reinstall them in a bent or damaged
condition.
•
Check to make sure hydraulic hoses are not worn
or damaged, and are routed to avoid chafing.
•
Never adjust a pressure relief valve or other
pressure-limiting device to a higher pressure than
specified.
