test must be carried out by an expert.
Check the following:
• Can any damage be seen on the outer lining such
as cracks, kinks, cuts, laking, chafe marks,
brittleness, etc.?
• Does the hose deform when pressurised or depressurised?
• Are there any leaks between the hose and fittings?

• If you discover any damages replace
the corresponding hose(s).
