Laying and securing of hydraulic pipes:
When installing a hydraulic pipe, the following points should be taken into account:
-
HMC recommends replacing hydraulic pipes completely, instead of making
joints between pipes. The hydraulic pipes must not be welded. If it is not possi-
ble to use one-piece pipe, the same type of connections as are used in the
original vehicle must be used.
-
The pipes must be permanently fixed to the vehicle. The fixation points should
be set strategically depending on the needs and guidelines contained in this
manual.
-
The distances between attachment points must not exceed 500 mm.
-
When multiple wires follow the same route, it is recommended to set them all
together with straps.
