"Insider Secrets to Hydraulics is well written and easy to read ... it provides valuable information that may be applied equally well to a small, one-off hydraulic machine, a complex machine or a factory full of hydraulic equipment. Throughout the book, facts and ideas are backed up by examples of a practical nature. This could only be attributed to the author's in-depth experience in the hydraulics industry."

Excerpt:         
 
When fluid moves from an area of high pressure to an area of low pressure without performing useful work, heat is generated. This means that any component in the hydraulic system that has abnormal, internal leakage will increase the heat load on the system and can cause the system to overheat. This could be anything from a cylinder that is leaking high-pressure fluid past its piston seal, to an incorrectly adjusted relief valve. Any heat-generating components need to be identified and changed-out.
