Brake Hose/Line: Testing and Inspection


Checking the brake lines
For reasons of safety, brake pipes, brake hoses, connections and joints must always be kept in first-rate condition. Therefore, it is important that these parts are inspected regularly in accordance with maintenance programmes. Brake pipes that are secured with plastic clips to the body must not show any signs of damage either. All pipe and hose joints must be well tightened without leaks. Damaged details must be replaced.
