A multi-section hydraulic jack is a tool used to lift and support heavy loads and consists of a number of hydraulic cylinders, each of which is connected to a piston. When pressure is applied, fluid is transferred through the tubing connected to the hydraulic cylinders and causes each piston to move upward simultaneously, thus lifting the load. To do a good job of the daily maintenance of the multi-section hydraulic jack to extend its service life, the following are some suggestions.
1、keep clean
Regular cleaning of the hydraulic jack is very important, use a soft cloth or brush to remove dust, oil and other impurities from the surface. Make sure to clean all the movable parts of the hydraulic jack, including cylinders, pistons and hydraulic pipes.
2、check the hydraulic oil
Proper hydraulic oil is required for proper operation of the hydraulic jack, check the quality and level of the hydraulic oil regularly. Make sure the oil is clean and replace the hydraulic oil according to the manufacturer's recommendations. At the same time, pay attention to maintaining the correct oil level of the hydraulic oil and avoid excessive or low oil levels.
3、Check the seals
The seals of the hydraulic jack play a vital role in its normal operation, regularly check the seals for wear, aging or leakage. If any problems are found, the seals should be replaced in time to avoid leakage and performance degradation of the hydraulic system.
4、correct use
Correct operation of the hydraulic jack can effectively extend its life, before use, make sure that you understand the rated load and use limits of the hydraulic jack. Avoid overloading or over squeezing. At the same time, avoid sudden release of hydraulic pressure to avoid damage to internal parts.
5、regular maintenance
Regular maintenance of the hydraulic jack is very important, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, regular lubrication and maintenance work. This includes inspections of the hydraulic system, cleaning and lubricating pistons, cylinders and other key components.
6、storage and protection
When the hydraulic jack is not in use, it is also important to store and protect it properly. Avoid exposing it to harsh environmental conditions such as high temperatures, humidity or corrosive gases. It is recommended that the hydraulic jack be stored in a dry, clean place and avoid stacking heavy objects or other items that could damage it.
7、check the hydraulic system
Regularly check the various components of the hydraulic system, including hydraulic pumps, valves and pressure gauges, etc., to ensure that they work properly and make the necessary repairs or replacements.
8、pay attention to the working environment
When using the hydraulic jack, make sure the working environment is clean, dry and stable. Avoid using the jack in areas containing corrosive chemicals or flammable materials to prevent damage or accidents.
9、Regularly check the safety valve
The safety valve is one of the important safety devices in the hydraulic jack, regularly check the working condition of the safety valve to ensure its sensitivity and reliability. If necessary, repair or replace.
10、Training operators
Ensure that the operator has received proper training on the hydraulic jack and understands its use and precautions. Provide necessary safety instructions to ensure that the operator properly operates and maintains the hydraulic jack to reduce the risk of accident and damage.
11、pay attention to the load of the jack
When using hydraulic jacks, attention should be paid to the equalisation and distribution of the load. Avoid applying excessive or uneven loads that may cause excessive stress or damage to the jack.
12、regular function test
Regular functional tests of hydraulic jacks, including lift and stability tests, can help identify potential problems and take timely measures to repair them.
In short, through these points above, you can extend the service life of the multi-section hydraulic jack and ensure its normal operation and safety. Above all, it is important that the hydraulic jack is serviced and maintained according to the guidelines and instructions provided by the manufacturer of the hydraulic jack. If any problems arise or repairs are needed, you should contact a professional repairer or service centre in time.
