It is as dangerous as people are saying, and you do get a webbed sheath that goes over hoses, it prevents oil jettingHow many people operating post knockers standing next to pipes, why are the pipes not sleeved if its as dangerous as some on here are saying. not like hse to miss a trick like this.
A second layer of sheathing or flexible pipe to deflect the jet of a burst.what do you mean unprotected hydraulic hoses? i regularly used to put oil pipes in and out when i was a kid i was none the wiser?
In the operator area they put a webbed sheath over the pipes to tidy them up and deflect oil.How many people operating post knockers standing next to pipes, why are the pipes not sleeved if its as dangerous as some on here are saying. not like hse to miss a trick like this.
I was that soldier on the buckrake but using a Ford 4000And to think plenty of us buckraked with a 135 and twose buckrake with the push off lever right beside us with 3 different hydraulic hoses all plumbed in not six inches away. Now I think about it the forage wagon was the same for moving the floor or lifting the reel. 🫣
I have a son ,13, farming mad. What do I say;
No you can't top that field in case a hose bursts and sprays you with hot oil.
No you can't bring cows in for milking in case the quad rolls over.
No you can't take barrel of water on the link box in case tractor rolls away.
Etc. Etc.
Love him so much and hate anything to happen but he has to learn.
Would need a few painkillers for that, what if it gets u in the face?

HSE showed photos of a blokes arm after it happening. Ten times worse than that hand,ended up losing it.Would need a few painkillers for that, what if it gets u in the face?
Every pipe should have a protective covering if its as lethal as this?HSE showed photos of a blokes arm after it happening. Ten times worse than that hand,ended up losing it.
Safety net,
under a Scissor lift or man cage,
Why, ?
Yet on another thread apparently he's trying to sell a gas regulator that's over 20 yrs out of date allegedly.Every body can read what you print , but why keep mentioning it
We were given training about it offshore. The danger is really high pressure stuff if you have a pin hole leak. I’ve never seen it happen on farm stuff, but could be possible on some of the newer higher pressure stuff.Every pipe should have a protective covering if its as lethal as this?
Shud have had him at it before now imo, now hes at that age he thinks he knows best and will be all guns blazing when you finally let him loose.My son is 17 and desperate to drive kit but our place is all steep and it frightens me to death to let him loose in case it all goes wrong. Trouble is I can't remember how I learned myself. Old boy who worked here used to take me with him when I was 9, letting me drive on the road with his flat cap on
He's done some stuff for five years,just not fully independent. When we were doing some harvesting,he was doing A level exams.Shud have had him at it before now imo, now hes at that age he thinks he knows best and will be all guns blazing when you finally let him loose.
Any implement has the potential to be lethal.This hydraulic hose blowing is honestly news to me.
Something that I was never taught about, nor have ever catered for.
Maybe a generation thing (aged 66) maybe my ignorance, but how does this sit with operating something like a JCB Loadall or similar? Likewise are bale wrappers a potentially lethal implement?
Any advice welcome!
