What maintenance practices are recommended to ensure the "long-term durability" and optimal performance of your hydraulic tension stringing equipment?
2025-07-21To ensure "long-term durability" and optimal performance of your hydraulic tension stringing equipment, we recommend:
-
Regular Fluid Checks & Replacement: Routinely inspect hydraulic oil levels and quality, and replace filters and fluid according to manufacturer schedules to prevent contamination and ensure smooth hydraulic operation.
-
Lubrication: Regularly lubricate all moving parts, including bearings, pivot points, and sheaves, to reduce friction and wear.
-
Component Inspection: Periodically inspect bullwheels/capstans for wear, damage, or buildup. Check hoses, fittings, and seals for leaks or deterioration. Inspect all structural welds and fasteners.
-
Engine Maintenance: Follow the engine manufacturer's guidelines for oil changes, air filter replacement, and general tune-ups.
-
Calibration Checks: Periodically verify the accuracy of the tension display and control system using a calibrated dynamometer to ensure precise tension application.
-
Cleanliness: Keep the machine clean, especially hydraulic components and cooling systems, to prevent overheating and contamination.
Adhering to a strict preventive maintenance schedule, coupled with using genuine spare parts and qualified technicians, will significantly extend the lifespan and reliability of your investment.
