The hydraulic filters have bypass valves. If the filter element becomes full of debris, oil cannot pass through the filter. The restriction to oil flow will cause a pressure increase. The increase in pressure will open the filter bypass. When oil bypasses the filter element, debris in the oil will cause damage to other system components. Correct maintenance must be used in order to make sure that the filter element remains clean. The filter is equipped with a drain (1). Drain (1) is used to drain the oil out of the filter before the filter element is changed. The filter has a bypass switch that monitors the filter. The bypass switch is a two-position switch. The pressure switch will send an input to the implement Electronic Control Module (ECM) when the filter is bypassing oil. The implement ECM will read inputs from the bypass switch in order to determine the status of the oil filter.

The filter for the implement and steering pilot system has a bypass valve. If the filter element becomes full of debris, oil cannot pass through the filter. The restriction to oil flow will cause a pressure increase and the increase in pressure will open the filter bypass. When oil bypasses the filter element, debris in the oil can cause damage to downstream system components. Correct maintenance must be used in order to make sure that the filter element remains clean.
The filter has a bypass switch that monitors the filter. The bypass switch is a two-position switch. The bypass switch will send an input to the implement Electronic Control Module (ECM) when the filter is bypassing oil. The implement ECM will read inputs from the bypass switch and the hydraulic oil temperature sensor in order to determine the status of the oil filter.
