Troubleshooting Common Problems with Hydraulic Cylinders/Jacks

Author:SAIVS Time:2023-05-16 Click:

Hydraulic Cylinders/jacks are powerful tools that can pose serious safety hazards if not used properly. Here are some important safety considerations when working with Hydraulic Cylinders/jacks:


Read the user manual thoroughly: Before using any hydraulic equipment, it is important to carefully read and understand the user manual. This will help you understand the equipment's capabilities, limitations, and safety features.


Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE): PPE including gloves, safety glasses, and steel-toed boots should be worn at all times when working with hydraulic cylinders/jacks to protect against potential hazards.


Inspect the equipment before use: Before using hydraulic equipment, inspect it for any signs of damage or wear. Check hoses, fittings, and other components for cracks, leaks, or other signs of wear.


Use the right equipment for the job: Select the appropriate hydraulic cylinder/jack for the task at hand based on its capacity, stroke length, and other specifications. Using the wrong equipment can result in equipment failure or even serious injury.


Use caution when lifting heavy loads: When using a hydraulic cylinder/jack to lift heavy loads, ensure that the load is evenly distributed and properly secured. Never exceed the weight capacity of the equipment and avoid standing under the load.


Avoid pinch points: Hydraulic cylinders/jacks operate by exerting force, which can create pinch points. Be sure to keep your fingers, hands, and other body parts away from moving parts.


By following these safety considerations and proper operating procedures, you can help minimize the risk of injury or equipment damage when working with hydraulic cylinders/jacks.


In addition to the above steps, there are other troubleshooting measures that can be taken:

1. Check all parts of the hydraulic cylinder/jack, including seals, rods, pistons, hoses, joints, and valves, to see if there is obvious wear or damage. If necessary, replace them in a timely manner.

2. Check if the Hydraulic System has an effective filter, which is used to prevent pollutants from entering the hydraulic system and ensure the quality of the hydraulic oil.

3. Check the temperature of the hydraulic oil. If the temperature is too high or too low, it may cause problems in the hydraulic system. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor and adjust the temperature in a timely manner.

4. Check the pressure and flow rate of the system to ensure compliance with the equipment requirements. If there are abnormal pressure and flow rates in the system, they need to be checked and resolved in a timely manner.

5. Check the exhaust port of the hydraulic cylinder/jack. If the exhaust is not smooth, it may cause unstable movement or insufficient force, so it is necessary to ensure smooth exhaust connection.

Finally, in order to maintain the optimal performance of the hydraulic system, it is necessary to regularly maintain and maintain the hydraulic cylinder/jack, adjust and replace components according to equipment requirements, and other operations, in order to ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment.
