When a hydraulic hose blows in the field, first shut down the system and relieve all pressure by cracking a fitting or using the relief valve. Tag the failed hose, inspect the surrounding area for debris or leaks, and replace it with a rated spare using proper torque on the fittings. Bleed the system before restarting, then test at low speed to ensure no air or leaks remain.
