               • Sticking servo-valves
               • Plugged fi lters
               •  Build up on surfaces, heat exchangers, reservoir walls,
                   and bearing surfaces























               Varnish is attracted to metal surfaces, this results in an overall   Burnt polymer pleat support mesh from arcing
