Gates Australia Safe Hydraulics Program

Unsafe hydraulic systems can be a financial drain, and worse, put employees at risk. Gates Australia’s preventive maintenance training materials and seminars make it easier to identify component weaknesses before failure.

Preventive maintenance is especially important with hydraulic products. The high pressures and temperatures associated with hydraulics make maintenance critical to mitigate the risk of injury and downtime.

Proper hydraulic preventive maintenance is important to anyone who operates hydraulically powered equipment. Improperly maintained equipment can lead to premature hose failures and blowouts, resulting in equipment downtime, possible equipment damage or personal injury.

Gates has developed an in-depth hydraulic preventive maintenance training program called Safe Hydraulics that can help users properly maintain and service equipment for safe operation.

Gates’ Safe Hydraulics Program ensures the same consistent safe hydraulic message is delivered to all participants, providing what is claimed to be the most thorough hydraulic preventive maintenance short course into the marketplace. The half-day seminar includes information on safe hydraulic practices, including safety, health, environmental procedures and fluid injections protocol as well as safety tips and hydraulic cleanliness advice.
