Checking The Hydraulic Lines - Toro 30284 Service Manual

Checking the Hydraulic Lines

After every 100 operating hours, check hydraulic lines
and hoses for leaks, loose fittings, kinked lines, loose
mounting supports, wear, weather and chemical deterior-
ation. Make necessary repairs before operating.
Note: Keep areas around hydraulic system clean
from grass and debris build up.
Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can pene-
trate skin and cause injury.
• If hydraulic fluid is injected into the skin it must
be surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this type of injury. Gangrene
may result if this is not done.
• Keep body and hands away from pin hole leaks
or nozzles that eject high pressure hydraulic
fluid.
• Use cardboard or paper to find hydraulic leaks.
• Safely relieve all pressure in the hydraulic sys-
tem before performing any work on the hydraulic
system.
• Make sure all hydraulic fluid hoses and lines are
in good condition and all hydraulic connections
and fittings are tight before applying pressure to
hydraulic system.
