In summary, the key difference between hydraulic fluid and air lies in their physical properties—most notably, the compressibility of air versus the incompressibility of fluid. This difference, while seemingly straightforward, has profound implications for the...
When the hydraulic pump is found to be the issue, it must be either rebuilt or replaced depending on its condition. Addressing the root cause of pump wear, such as cavitation due to low fluid levels or clogged filters, is also important to prevent future failures. If...
