HYDROSTARTER RESERVOIR AND FILTER.
a. The reservoir is a cylindrical steel tank. The reservoir will hold the entire oil supply for the hydrostarter
system. A filler cap with a dry-type filter is at the top of the reservoir. A fine mesh screen inside the reservoir
filters the fluid flowing to the pump from the supply hose.
b. The supply hose is connected to the fine mesh screen at the bottom of the reservoir. One return hose
connects to the top of the reservoir. The other hydrostarter return hose connects into the side.
c. A filter is installed on the suction hose to provide a finer filtration that protects the pump mechanism.
The filter is a stacked element that can be cleaned and reused.
