Hydraulic excavator training

It will help you to learn about fluid power safely and effectively. The program lets you operate drive, boom, and slew controls then explore the components that make them work. The best way to learn is by experimentation. It includes an example hydrostatic drive circuit with information and exercises that show you how to maintain and diagnose common faults.

The full list of training routines includes:

Operate the skid steer loader controls

Explore how the electro-hydraulic control systems work

Closed-circuit hydrostatic steering drive system

Open circuit direction slew motor control

Open circuit proportional lift cylinder control

Contamination entry points review

Drag icons to show contamination entry points

Components sensitive to contamination review

Identify potential contamination failure points

Leakage or flow loss points review
