STOP GUESSING.
START TESTING.

A practical introduction to hydraulic troubleshooting built around one idea: understand the circuit, choose the right test, and let the results lead you to the fault.

A BETTER WAY TO APPROACH A HYDRAULIC FAULT

01

Pressure vs. Flow

Separate force problems from speed problems before reaching for parts.

02

Strategic Test Points

Use pressure and flow measurements to isolate where the system stops behaving correctly.

03

7-Step Method

Define, verify, trace, baseline, measure, isolate, and verify the repair.

04

Real Fault Scenario

Walk through a cylinder-will-not-extend complaint using evidence instead of assumptions.
