Purpose of Seminar:
The purpose of this information packed seminar is to provide the attendee with
the ability to read, draw and understand fluid power drawings and schematics,
which will enable students to properly troubleshoot, identify & fix problems in
their equipment. This course will take the mystery out of fluid power symbols
and drawings so that you will understand exactly what is going on with your
systems & equipment. This is done by teaching what the symbols represent,
how the flow of fluid power goes, and what happens when system fluids hit a
component identified by its symbolic drawing. Students will also learn how
the schematics should be used for troubleshooting old equipment, or installing
new equipment.
A perfect course for the novice and great review for the experienced hydraulic
technician, attend this seminar and leave with the confidence and knowledge of
how to read and use fluid power schematics to become more useful and efficient
in your job.
