Breather/Filter – Hydraulic System Maintenance

As part of your regular maintenance program on a NiteHawk sweeper, the hydraulic system filters are changed on an annual basis. One of the often overlooked components of the hydraulic system is your reservoir Breather/Filter. Breather/Filters are a crucial link in the hydraulic system, preventing airborne contaminants and moisture from entering the tank. If these filters are not changed on an annual basis, they can become clogged, allowing contaminated air into the system causing premature wear and possible failure of hydraulic components.
