(See Figure 1)
3. Avoid Hydraulic Contamination by filtering
the Hydraulic Oil while filling the Hydraulic Tank. Filter
buggies or carts are commercially available for Hy-
draulic system clean-up and Oil transfer. These con-
sist of high capacity filter, a Circulating Pump, a Drive
Motor and hoses for connecting to the units hydraulic
system. When adding Oil always use Clean new Oil
from a sealed container, If you suspect the Oil of being
contaminated don't use it. (See Figure 2 & 3). It is best
to always use a filter system when adding even new
oil.
4. When adding Oil in the field keeping it clean
is critical, do not use dirting funnels or hoses. Do Not
open Hydraulic tank or any contaners unless the
openings have been cleaned first. The outside of the
containers must be clean. If a windy dusty day do not
fill and allow dirt to blow into oil. Always add Oil using
a pump systemwith at least a 10 Micron filter system.
