CAUTION!!
Relocating or changing components may cause problems. Each component in the
system must be compatible; an undersized or restricted line will cause a drop in pressure.
All valve, pump, and hose connections should be sealed and/or capped until just prior to
use. Air hoses can be used to clean fittings and other components. However, the air
supply must be filtered and dry to prevent contamination. Most important is cleanliness;
Contamination is the most frequent cause of malfunction or failure of hydraulic
equipment.
