Procedure
Inspect hoses and lines periodically (at least weekly) for signs of wear. Ob-
serve the following:
• Look for leakage or seepage along the entire length of the hose/line, es-
pecially at the ends.
• Check hose clamps for damage.
• Look for rust on metal lines.
• Hoses should be firm and springy. Hoses that are cracked, soft, covered
in oil, or otherwise obviously damaged should be replaced.
