What should I do if the hydraulic brake fails

Jul 15, 2025

Hydraulic brake failure may lead to serious safety issues, therefore timely measures need to be taken for disposal. Here are some suggested disposal methods:

  1. Immediately stop using: Once the hydraulic brake is found to be malfunctioning, the crane should be immediately stopped and personnel should be kept away from the danger zone to avoid accidental injury.
  2. Report to relevant personnel: Timely report the failure situation to relevant management and maintenance personnel, so that they can understand the situation and take corresponding emergency measures.
  3. Check and confirm the cause of the malfunction: Maintenance personnel will inspect and diagnose the hydraulic brake to determine the cause of the malfunction. Possible causes of the malfunction include damage to brake components, hydraulic system failure, electrical system failure, etc.

  4. Emergency repair: Conduct emergency repairs on the drum brake based on the cause of the malfunction. If it is a simple component replacement, it can be repaired on site; If it is a more complex fault, it may be necessary to send the hydraulic brake back to the repair center for repair.
  5. Alternative or backup measures: If the industrial brake cannot be repaired immediately, alternative or backup measures can be considered to ensure the safe operation of the crane. For example, other reliable braking devices or other safety measures can be used.
  6. Testing and verification: After repairing the industrial brake, conduct testing and verification to ensure that the brake function is restored normally. The testing includes braking force testing, braking response time testing, etc., to ensure that the crane can safely stop under normal working conditions.

It should be emphasized that the maintenance and disposal of hydraulic brakes should be carried out by specialized personnel and strictly in accordance with relevant safety operating procedures and laws and regulations. Timely maintenance and upkeep are crucial for the safe operation of cranes, and should not be ignored or delayed without authorization.
