CONTENT

In this introductory training, we apply the principles of hydraulics to a tractor. In this practical training, we study the fundamentals of tractor hydraulics.

This is mainly a theoretical training, but the practical application on a tractor makes this complex material much more accessible.

After this introduction, you can specialise further with various short practice-oriented modules such as PVG valves, open centre, closed centre, Load Sensing or hydrostatic traction.

  • Pump types and control valves
  • Open and closed centre, load sensing
  • Hydraulic applications on the tractor:
  • Auxiliary valves (external services)
  • Speed controls
  • Power beyond (ccls)
  • Nitrogen accumulator (purpose and applications)

APPROACH

  • Theoretical presentation (50%) with plenty of practical exercises (50%)
  • Continuous assessment
  • Every participant who passes receives a certificate of attendance
