PERIODIC REPLACEMENT OF SAFETY CRITICAL PARTS

PERIODIC REPLACEMENT OF SAFETY CRITICAL PARTS
To ensure safety at all times when operating or driving the
machine, the user of the machine must always carry out periodic
maintenance. In addition, to further improve safety, the user
should also carry out periodic replacement of the parts given in
the table. These parts are particularly closely connected to safety
and fire prevention.
With these parts, the material changes as time passed, or they
easily wear or deteriorate. However, it is difficult to judge the con-
dition of the parts simply by periodic maintenance, so they should
always be replaced after a fixed time has passed, regardless of
their condition. This is necessary to ensure that they always main-
tain their function completely.
However, if these parts show any abnormality before the replace-
ment interval has passed, they should be repaired or replaced
immediately.
If the hose clamps show any deterioration, such as deformation or
cracking, replace the clamps at the same as the hoses.
When replacing the hoses, always replace the O-rings, gaskets,
and other such parts at the same time.
Ask your Komatsu distributor to replace the safety critical parts.
