Hydaulich hoses bursting in drivers face

We have an H25t and an H30t we also have another 18 forklifts of different brand on our site.
We have had the hoses burst on these two lindes 3 times into the face of the driver.
None of the other forklifts have ever burst.
Linde are saying it isn't a design problem.
Does anyone else have this issue?

using genuine parts, but you can see wearing on the point that it bursts., which is about face height when the forks are at ground level
Cant figure out what it is wearing on though.

What in the maximum safe working pressure printed on the hose & what is the pressure relief safety valve set to?

What replacement hoses are you fitting?
Genuine Linde OR are you using a local hydraulic hose replacement service?

The only times ive seen hydraulic hoses burst is after suffering damage OR when they really aged.
