Safety Section
NOTICE
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during
performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and
repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with
suitable containers before opening any compartment or
disassembling any component containing fluids.
Personal injury can result from hydraulic oil pressure and hot
oil.
Make sure all of the work tools have been lowered to the ground,
and the oil is cool before removing any components or lines.
Remove the oil filler cap only when the engine is stopped, and
the filler cap is cool enough to touch with your bare hand.

Prevent the machine from movement. Park the machine on a level surface.
Attach a "Do Not Operate" warning tag or a similar warning tag to the start switch or to the controls before you service the equipment. These
warning tags (Special Instruction, SEHS7332) are available from your Caterpillar dealer.
This inspection form is intended to assist with identification and prioritization of failure modes associated with hose assemblies and to increase your
ability to identify and proactively resolve issues in order to minimize fluid loss, machine downtime and avoid environmental impact.
Various site conditions, the environment and machine age should always be considered when inspecting hose assemblies.
When performing a machine walk-around, always follow local safety guidelines and wear the appropriate PPE. Prior to inspection, turn off
equipment power and release pressure from the accumulators along with the system pressure. Make sure equipment is in a safe or neutral
position, retract all cylinders, drop the load, and allow enough time for cool down. Chock tires as necessary. NEVER touch a hydraulic hose that is
under pressure.
Replacement indicator 1
Hose assembly is visibly damaged and risk of failure is high.
Replacement indicator 2
Hose assembly is showing early signs of fatigue or wear and risk of failure is low.
Note: Where possible take photos to highlight areas of concern and attach to report.
Cover has worn through or has been damaged with exposure of the reinforcement layer.
