Just like Dr. House's world perception is based on the "everybody lies"
axiom, a hydraulics technician's is based on the
"everything breaks" statement. The level of an individual's experience
is therefore inversely proportional to the quantity of parts he
considers "unbreakable". This philosophy is a sure road to success in
the field, and the presented set of pictures shows yet another
"unbreakable" by the standards of many component, namely a spool from a
distributor valve of a small excavator, split in half. If you thought
it was impossible to break a sturdy distributor spool - smile -
you are one step closer to mastering industrial oil-hydraulics
troubleshooting...
