When hydraulic components fail internally, debris from
the failed component can spread throughout the
hydraulic system and cause additional damage.
This situation can be magnified when dealing with a
closed-loop traction system, where oil is not filtered. In
the event of a traction system component failure, it is
recommended that all traction system components be
disassembled and cleaned, or filtered using a portable
in-line filter available through your Jacobsen Dealer. The
portable in-line filter should also be used when testing
hydraulic systems or after replacing a failed component.
IMPORTANT
Always install the in-line filter so oil flows through
the filter before entering a component. Once filtering
has begun, never reverse the flow of oil, or debris
will re-enter the system.
