Modern farm machinery operates on hydraulic power. From the arm loaders on an agricultural tractor to the folding wings of a sprayer with a wide span, nearly every function is dependent on the pressurized flow of fluid that moves efficiently through a network of hoses, cylinders, fittings, valves, and other components. The fitting—that tiny connector with a threaded thread or push-on—is the point where the system holds together or falls apart. If you do it correctly, a machine can run every season without a hitch. If you don't, you'll be dealing with fluid spills on the field, the loss of working days in a crucial harvest window, and risks to safety associated with the injuries caused by hydraulic injections.
