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