Maintenance and Care Guidelines
To ensure long-term stable operation and extend the service life of the YG hydraulic magnet for excavators, customers should observe the following during daily use:
- Hydraulic System Inspection
Regularly check hydraulic lines for leaks or loose connections to maintain stable pressure.
Avoid hydraulic oil contamination or use of non-compliant hydraulic fluids. - Magnet Surface Cleaning
After each operation, clean metal debris and dust from the magnet surface to prevent magnetic strength reduction or scratches. - Fastener Inspection
Periodically check bolts, nuts, and connectors for looseness to ensure secure installation. - Corrosion and Rust Prevention
In humid or coastal environments, apply rust-preventive oil to the magnet surface to extend service life. - Operating Precautions
Ensure magnet deactivation during no-load operation to prevent unnecessary wear or safety hazards.
Do not lift non-metallic objects or exceed rated load capacity to avoid equipment damage. - Regular Maintenance
Conduct comprehensive inspections every 3-6 months, covering hydraulic systems, magnetic performance, and mechanical structure.
Contact manufacturer technical support immediately for repairs if abnormalities are detected.
