Do not return the industrial truck to service until you have identified and rectified the
fault.
NOTE
Testing and replacing hydraulic hoses
Hydraulic hoses can become brittle through age and must be checked at regular
intervals. The application conditions of the industrial truck have a considerable impact
on the ageing of the hydraulic hoses.
XCheck the hydraulic hoses at least annually and replace if necessary.
XIf the operating conditions become more arduous the inspection intervals must be
reduced accordingly.
XIn normal operating conditions a precautionary replacement of the hydraulic hoses
is recommended after 6. The owner must carry out a risk assessment to ensure
safe, prolonged use. The resulting protection measures must be observed and the
inspection interval reduced accordingly.
