Telehandler Repair

A long term customer of ours had their Manitou Telehandler fail on site, it was diagnosed as a fault with their boom cylinder. After the call our mobile hydraulic engineer Gavin visited their site, and with the help of their own site engineer we stripped the cylinder from the machine, then transported it back to our workshop for a full Professional repair. 

when the cylinder landed it was over to Mark our experienced in house Hydraulic Engineer, he Fully Stripped the cylinder, Inspected the damage components to determine what repairs where needed, along with identifying the seals required. Having the cylinder in our workshop means this process can be done professionally, ensuring that hydraulics number 1 killer CONTAMINATION, is excluded from the start of the repair.

Time for the Machining! The Tube was completed on our 3Meter Colchester machine, Whilst the Rod, piston and gland where polished using our XYZ Machines. Following our Rigorous repair checks ALL machined parts where fit tested to their Mating parts, steam cleaned to remove all CONTANIMENTS, and with their paper work filled out they where moved onto weld, build, test and paint. 

Once back in the hydraulic workshop, the tube was welded in our Purpose built welding bay, where fumes/CONTANIMENTS are contained. Another cleaning process is complete ready for the final build and Paint. Pained using our hard wearing enamel paint, ready for some hard years work!

Back into the mobile Hydraulic van! head to site for machine mounting, Once mounted the machine was fully tested to meet our customers satisfaction. 

Another happy customer!
