Dear colleagues, today we will focus on the standardized cleaning process of the excavator quick connector. As the “joint” assembly of engineering machinery, improper maintenance of the quick connector will cause serious consequences: long-term residual oil will accelerate the leakage of the hydraulic system, rust deposition will cause the seal to fail prematurely, and agglomerated engineering materials are more likely to cause structural damage. According to industry data, standardized daily cleaning can extend the life of the assembly by more than 30%, and reduce the average annual maintenance cost by 46,000 yuan.
The first step is to clean the swivel joint. The inside of the joint must be very clean. Another point is that when we install it, it is best to add a filter to the front end of the joint, which can effectively prevent some debris from entering and causing joint wear.
Second, if it is not used for a long time, we must check the rotation regularly to prevent rust inside the swivel joint.
Third, we should add lubricating oil to the joint regularly, one is to reduce the wear of the joint, and the other is that the lubricating oil can also play a role in rust prevention.
Fourth, when our quick connector is not working, do not rotate it manually.
