Understanding the hydraulic flow

It starts at the reservoir (tank). See Figure 3.2.

The tank acts as the axle of the log splitter.

Check the level of the hydraulic fluid, and add
hydraulic fluid through the oil fill port.

The tank is vented by a passage drilled through
the pipe plug. See Figure 3.2.

The outlet on the engine side of the tank feeds
hydraulic fluid directly to the pump.
See Figure 3.3.

The filter housing mounted on the tank provides
a return path to the tank.
