Narrative

At 3:41pm the #1 hydraulic brake pump tripped power due to a loss of hydraulic fluid. As a result, the #1 service hoist was inoperable for a period of time until the #2 hydraulic brake pump was brought on line. A fitting on the #1 hydraulic pump had failed causing a loss of brake pressure. The hydraulic fitting was repaired and brought back into service.
