The hydraulic oil filter is an indispensable element ensuring the reliability and durability of the tractor's hydraulic system. Its regular replacement and maintenance are key to ensuring the efficiency of the machine and minimizing the risk of failure and repair costs.

Hydraulic oil filter features:

• Oil Cleansing: The hydraulic oil filter removes contaminants such as metal shavings, hydraulic process deposits, and other particles that may accumulate in the oil. Clean oil is necessary to ensure proper operation of the hydraulic pump and other system components.
• Wear Protection: Removing contaminants from hydraulic oil helps protect sensitive system components such as pumps, valves, cylinders and seals from premature wear and damage.
• Prevention of failures: Regular filtration of hydraulic oil reduces the risk of hydraulic failures, which translates into lower repair costs and increased operational reliability of the tractor.

Construction elements of the hydraulic oil filter:

• Housing: The hydraulic oil filter has a metal housing that protects the filter element against mechanical damage and external conditions.
• Filter element: The filter element consists of a filter material (usually paper or non-woven fabric) that traps contaminants, allowing the oil to flow freely.
• By-pass valves: Some hydraulic filters are equipped with by-pass valves that allow oil to continue to flow when the filter is clogged, protecting the system from damage if the flow suddenly stops.

Hydraulic oil filter maintenance and replacement:

• Regular replacement: The hydraulic oil filter replacement interval depends on operating conditions and the tractor manufacturer, but is usually approximately every 500-1000 hours of use or every 1-2 years.
• Replacement During Service: The hydraulic oil filter is frequently replaced during scheduled machine services, along with changing the hydraulic oil, to ensure continued protection and operation of the system.
• Inspection of filter condition: When changing the oil and filter, carefully inspect the condition of the hydraulic filter to assess its condition and any problems with the hydraulic system.
