What happens here

Carefully inspect all hydraulic lines and cylinders for any signs of leaks, cracks, or damage. Pay close attention to hoses that appear brittle, chipped, or have visible bursts. Identify the hydraulic fluid reservoir and check its fluid level. In this case, a busted line leading to the tank and completely empty reservoir indicates significant leaks. Also, check the hydraulic pump and note any mounting brackets or unique features.

Goal: Identify all damaged or leaking hydraulic components.
