Hydraulic filter change

[Bill W]

It’s recommended I change my hydraulic oil filter every 200 hours. Is there a time limit as to the life of the filter? In other words, if I use it 50 hours a year, will the filter last for 4years. Thanks.

The time constraint would be on the oil not the filter. This is for moisture. Neither of which I would worry about for how most of these machines are used.

If you do a lot of short runs and the engine never gets hot enough to boil off accumulated moisture then more frequent oil changes will help.

With SUDT2 you should be able to go years on both oil and filter without any concerns about moisture.

Don’t pressure-wash the gear shift-lever areas or let it sit out in the rain…and water will never be a hyd. issue.
