Introduction
The following information explains the repair/assembly process for hydraulic hoses through the hose service
shop. The steps follow the Caterpillar recommended best practices. Every service shop is different, but the basic
workflow and process still applies to all. It is a management decision at the dealership as to what extent they
follow the process. The dealer can use the Service Operation Development and Assessment (SODA), SERF8918
to access their level of compliance. The compact disc can be ordered through the media logistics system. After
the assessment is completed, a plan can be developed based on the findings. Service Operation Development and
Assessment (SODA), SERF8918 will help identify process and tooling gaps in operations. This document also
references other supporting documents that cover the various stages of the hose repair in detail.

Workflow
1. Customer brings in a hose to a clearly marked hose shop.
7. Reclaim the old couplings if needed for the new hose assembly.
15. Recheck the assembly for the correct angle of orientation and overall assembly length.

20. Present the final assembly to the customer or store the assembly on a shelf for the customer to pickup.
Work Bench
The following items should be located next to the parts counter:
A 7S-1125 protractor for measuring the angle of orientation of the old assembly.
A calculator available to prevent errors when calculating the hose cut-off factor.
An 8T-0450 thread identification kit for measurement and identification of the couplings.
Caterpillar's Hydraulic Information System in order to identify the correct part numbers.
A copy of Caterpillar's Product Guide, PECP5030, "Cat Hose Products & Tooling" as a back-up to
Caterpillar's Hydraulic Information System is unavailable.
The parts availability must be physically verified including any seals that are required. All required seals must
be kept in a clean shipping bag that will be attached to the finished assembly.

Hose Cleaning
The inside of the hose must be cleaned after cutting to the correct length. Refer to Special Instruction,
SEBF8485, "Cleaning Fluid-Carrying Hose and Tube Assemblies in Shop and Field Applications" for the
complete cleaning instructions. This manual also lists the hose cleaning groups available through Caterpillar.
The hose cleaning group consists of a gun, nozzles, projectiles and projectile catcher. Make sure the hose
cleaning process is in sight of the customer. Cleaning the hose in front of the customer indicates a level of
quality and attention to detail. A perceived contaminant free assembly establishes a differentiation between the
dealer service shop and the competition. An air line will be necessary for the operation of the gun. It is also
recommended that the air pressure is at least 620 kPa (90 psi) in order to ensure that the projectile will travel the
entire length of the assembly without lodging the projectile in the hose. Storing the nozzles in a 156-0055 Rack-
Nozzle Organizer will keep them separate and make it easier to locate the correct nozzle. Store the various sizes
of projectiles in a modular drawer or other contamination free cabinet. The projectiles need to be located close to
the cleaning station. Post the Projectile Selection Chart, NEEG2955 in the cleaning area for reference when
locating the correct nozzle and projectile. A 130-6420 Catcher Bag needs to be utilized in order to capture the
projectiles fired through the assembly. The used projectiles need to be shown to the customer in order to prove
that using the hose cleaning group is providing them with a contaminate free hose. The projectile may be placed
in a bag and sent with the assembly for later reference.
Skive Area
All high pressure hoses must be skived. The correct tooling must be utilized including a skive tool along with a
226-7150 hose gauge kit . A Skive Length Chart, NEEG2956 should be available for easy reference in order to
identify the correct skive length. Use a fine tipped marking pen to mark the correct length on the black outer
cover of the hose. A skive vise should be mounted on the workbench to help support the hose during skiving.
The hose is ready to be skived after the hose is marked and the hose is clamped in the vise. Place a waste bin in
the skiving area to capture the outer cover that has been removed during the skiving process to keep the areas as
clean as possible. Collect the skived material. Housekeeping in this area must be managed especially if in view
of the customer.
Tooling
All of the tooling required for the assembly and/or disassembly of the coupling needs to be kept on a shadow
board or in labeled drawers. This will insure that all the tooling has been returned. Clean all the tooling before
returning to storage. Cleaning the tooling will help prevent assembly contamination and prolong the life of the
tooling.
Coupling Reclamation

Reusable couplings must be reclaimed if replacement couplings are not available. Refer to the Tool Operating
Manual for the machine being used for reclaiming, Tool Operating Manual, NEHS0746, "Combination Hose
Machine" or Tool Operating Manual, NEHS0745, "XT-Hose Machine" may be used. The Tool Operating
Manuals provide a list of all the tooling required and a step by step process for reclaiming the couplings. The
couplings need to be reclaimed, cleaned, and inspected before they can be reused. Use a filtered parts washer to
maintain coupling cleanliness when required. Inspect the couplings after cleaning. Refer to Guideline for
Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8176 to determine the coupling reusability.
Assembly
The assembly process can be started once the hose has been cleaned and the couplings are obtained. Refer to the
Tool Operating Manual of the machine being used for the tooling needed in the assembly process. Crimp one
coupling. Check and record the crimp diameter to ensure the coupling is within crimp specifications. Refer to
Chart of Proper Crimp Diameters and Tolerances, NEEG2746. Make any adjustments to the tooling prior to
conducting the next crimp. If armor guard is needed, install the armor guard on the new hose before assembling
the second coupling. The angle of orientation must be set before crimping the second coupling. Refer to the
Reusable Coupling Tool List, NEHS0750 for the correct angle of orientation. Crimp the second coupling. Check
the crimp diameter and record all of the values.
