<strong>DOE</strong>-<strong>STD</strong>-I090-<strong>96</strong> (Rev-I)d. Evidence ofexcessive abrasion or scrubbingon the outer surface of a hose, rigid tube, or fitting(means shall be taken to eliminate the interface ofelements in contact or to otherwise protect thecomponents).9.2.6.3 Hydraulic <strong>and</strong> PneumaticPumps <strong>and</strong> MotorsInspect for:a. Loose bolts or fasteners.b. Leaks atjoints between sections.c. Shaft seal leaks.d. Unusual noises or vibration.e. Loss ofoperating speed.f. Excessive heating ofthe fluid.g. Loss ofpressure.9.2.6.4 Hydraulic <strong>and</strong> Pneumatic ValvesInspect for:a. Cracks in valve housing.b. Improper return ofspool to neutral position.c. Leaks at spools orjoints.d. Sticking spools.e. Failure ofrelief valves to attain correctpressure setting (relief valve pressures shall bechecked as specified by the manufacturer).9.2.6.5 Hydraulic <strong>and</strong> PneumaticCylindersInspect for:a. Drifting caused by fluid leaking across thepiston.b. Rod seal leakage.c. Leaks at welded joints.d. Scored, nicked, or dented cylinder rods.e. Dented case (barrel).f. Loose or deformed rod eyes or connectingjoints.9.2.6.6 Hydraulic FiltersEvidence ofrubber particles on the fJIter elementmay indicate deterioration ofthe hose, "0" ring,or other rubber components. Metal chips orpieces on the fJIter may denote failure in pumps,motors, or cylinders. Further checking will benecessary to determine the origin ofthe problembefore corrective action can be taken.9.2.6.7 Wire Ropea. A qualified inspector shall inspect wireropes at least annually. More frequent intervalsshall be determined by a qualified person <strong>and</strong> shallbe based on such factors as expected rope life asdetermined by severity ofenvironment, percentageofcapacity lifts, frequency rates ofoperation, <strong>and</strong>exposure to shock loads. The qualified inspectorshall carefully note any deterioration, such asdescribed below, that results in appreciable loss oforiginal strength <strong>and</strong> determine whether furtheruse ofthe rope constitutes an acceptable risk.This inspection shall include examination of theentire rope length without detaching it from thedrum.1. Reduction ofrope size below nominaldiameter, whether due to loss ofcore support,internal or external corrosion, or wear ofoutsidewires (see Table 9-2).2. Thenumber <strong>and</strong> distribution orconcentration ofbroken outside wires.3. Worn outside wires.4. Corroded or broken wires at endconnections.5. Corroded, cracked, bent, worn, orimproperly applied end connections.6. Kinking, crushing, cutting, orunstr<strong>and</strong>ing.Chapter 9Mobile Cranes 9-8
