Shop hours: 40

Last week was spent more with hydraulics with an intro into preventive maintenance. The Bobcat mini excavator became a great teaching tool in that we were able to actually see and feel the hydraulics working and not just look at a schematic. My group and I traced through the joystick pilot controls and not only learned the system but studied about what the specific service schedules and procedures were. I feel confident in the hydraulic system in that particular machine as well as what the needed servicing. 

On a somewhat related note I was driving over the pass and had some transmission problems. Looks like I'm going to need to pull it and dive inside... More pictures to come.
