Proximity and Limit Switches
Proximity and limit switches are used to limit travel of moving parts and/or to ensure conditions are
safe for operation.
If these switches are not adjusted properly, damage to the equipment may occur as well as poor or
dangerous functionality.
7)
Leaks
Verify that there are not any leaking hydraulic cylinders, hoses, tubes, valves, or pumps. Leaks in the
hydraulic system are an indicator of possibly overheating hydraulics, damage to a seal, over-
pressurization, or general wear. To avoid costly and premature replacement of parts, ensure all leaks
are addressed properly and timely.
8)
Cracks
Ensure that there are not any cracks forming along the hopper floor edge, body, tailgate, arms and
forks. This is an indicator that something is worn, not adjusted properly or damaged.
9)
Bushings

Bearings
Check for play in any bushing or bearing. This may require the use of a pry bar or a lifting device.
