The hoses should be checked for:

worn spots. (If the fabric casing of the hoses is exposed by
cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the hoses
should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the hose may
occur with possible bursting failure.)

seals and boots should be replaced to prevent leakage or
contamination of the grease.
2. Inspect the dust cover and boots for proper sealing, leakage
and damage. Replace them if defective.
