Product Overview

This SWMS covers hydraulic hose crimper set-up, hose preparation, crimping, pressure testing, component replacement and clean-up. It supports planning the work and managing hazards from crush points, stored hydraulic pressure, fluid release, sharp wire reinforcement and electrical equipment.

Activities & Specific Tasks Covered

This document includes task-specific risk controls for:

Review the job, work area and hose requirements
Position the crimper and inspect plant, guards, gauges and electrical equipment
Set up fluid containment and isolate or release energy
Adjust pumps and fluid systems as required
Measure, cut and prepare hose and fittings
Crimp hydraulic hose assemblies and inspect their identification
Conduct pressure testing while managing hose and fitting failure risks
Replace seals and components while controlling stored pressure
Clean up fluid residue, manage waste and sign off

Who is this for?

For contractors, workers, supervisors and businesses carrying out hydraulic hose crimping activities.
