The wear of the sliding shoes, which are placed among the telescopic elements, shall be checked by
measuring their thickness.
!
The distance from the top of the sliding shoes holder to the top of the sliding shoes shall not
be less than 7 mm.
The sliding blocks replacement (if any) shall be carried out by a qualified technician by
WARNING an authorized workshop.
An excessive wear of the sliding shoes may cause either the telescopic elements non sequential extension or
an excessive clearance, thus causing the offset among the telescopic elements.
!
The height of the sliding shoes holder shall not be less than 9 mm.
The sliding blocks replacement (if any) shall be carried out by a qualified technician by
WARNING
an authorized workshop.
!
Any tightening beyond this point will not improve tightness. On the contrary it will
damage the joint.
Do not twist the hoses.
Incorrect mounting or choose of hydraulic hoses can lead to overheating, reduced effect
WARNING and leakage. Be carefully when changing hoses.
During assembly, in case you have to install flexible hoses , you must make allowance for the fact that the
hoses will be subjected to variations in length when under pressure, with resulting torsional stresses. Therefore,
do not choose hoses that are to short. Check the correct arrangement of the hose in their rest condition.
Take care with hose routing. If the hoses have to describe curves, choose an appropriate radius of curvature.
Too narrow a radius of curvature will constrict the cross section of the hose and lead to load losses, while the
kinks that ensure will cause torsional stresses and hose failure. Choose the right free hose length between
joints. To ensure correct assembly of the hoses, elbow fittings are available for hose installation in confined
spaces, without undermining the efficiency and working life of the hose.
! In case you have to install flexible hoses to connect our equipment, please check the hose
working pressure according the hydraulic diagram
WARNING
In case of you have to replace a flexible hose , be sure that the characteristics of the hoses are
equivalent with the original one
We suggest to utilise original spares that you can order after consulting of the spare parts catalogue
Precautions shall be taken when disconnecting hydraulic tubing and hoses to ensure that no hydraulic
pressure has been retained in the line when the power supply to the system has been switched off
