Description
This advanced hydraulics course will utilize variable displacement,
pressure compensated hydraulic pumps, valves and components
common to current production agricultural tractors and
equipment to aid students in developing diagnostic and repair
skills necessary to become procient technicians. Students will
become familiar with hydraulic pump diagnostics, priority circuit
identification, flow control system diagnostics and electronic
valve calibration. Component identication and inspection as
well as direct system operation in the lab setting are fundamental
elements of this course. Hydrostatic drives and motors will also be
explored.
