service life. A dirty or clogged cap may cause the machine to perform poorly. Extremely
dirty conditions may require that the cap be inspected more often.
1. Remove the breather cap from the hydraulic tank.
2. Check for proper venting.
• Result: Air passes through the breather cap.
• Result: If air does not pass through the cap, clean or replace the cap. Proceed to step 3.
NOTE: When checking for positive tank cap venting, air should pass freely through the cap.

compressed air. Repeat step 2.
