Before performing any maintenance on a hydraulic system storing energy in an accumulator, you should __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Stored energy hazards in hydraulic accumulators • Proper lockout/tagout and depressurization steps before maintenance • Difference between testing a system and making it safe to work on

💭 Think About

• What is the main danger when opening or loosening any part of a hydraulic system that uses an accumulator? • Which choice clearly removes the hazard of sudden release of high-pressure fluid before you touch any components? • Are there any options that sound like normal operating procedures rather than specific safety steps before maintenance?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which option directly eliminates stored pressure in the system before work begins. • Eliminate any choice that would increase or maintain pressure while you are preparing for maintenance. • Check that the step you choose would be done before loosening fittings, hoses, or components on the hydraulic system.
