HYDRAULIC INSTALLATION
Both the block and the hydraulic distributor are covered by a removable metal
protection (Pd) located at the bottom of the column. To remove the protection, remove
first the screws located on both sides of the protection.
In the protection of the hydraulic block, there is also a support, quick plug type, to place
the hydraulic brake hose (depending on the model) when the mixer is not used
Figure 5.11: Hydraulic distributor
When the mixer is not in use, always leave the brake hose attached
to its support, if dirt accumulates in the quick coupling when it
comes into contact with the ground, it may contaminate the oil and
damage the hydraulic system.
In addition to the periodic check of the hydraulic oil level, the maintenance operations
to be carried out are:
a) Visually check periodically for oil leaks.
b) Visually check the condition of the hoses, checking possible wear points.
When, for any reason, a hose breaks or a high-flow leak is detected, the mixer must be
stopped immediately and analyzed by a specialist, since in case of excessively lowering
the level of the hydraulic oil tank, it may overheat. This may cause which would cause
irreversible damage to the hydraulic components.
Any intervention on the hydraulic circuit must be carried out solely
and exclusively by specialized TATOMA personnel, due to the risk
involved in handling these elements, and due to working at high
pressures.
