A broken coolant line three months back made me rethink my whole setup

I was running a long job on our old Haas, the one with the finicky coolant pump. The line split right at the fitting, spraying everything. After I cleaned up the mess, I started looking at all the other hoses. Found two more that were soft and about to go. Now I check them all on the first Monday of each month. How often do you guys check your machine lines?

Yeah, that coolant mess is a real wake-up call lol. I started doing a quick visual check every Friday before shutting down for the week. Catching a swollen hose early saves so much hassle later on.

But honestly, joseph_lewis92, is a weekly check really needed for a problem that only pops up every few years?
