Hydraulic head is related to the amount of energy present in a hydraulic system. Hydraulic head is composed of three components: elevation head, pressure head, and velocity head. As water loses one component of its hydraulic head, the other components increase. For example: water that falls 10 feet loses 10 feet of elevation head and gains 10 feet of velocity head. The only way a hydraulic system can lose hydraulic head is through head loss due to friction.

Where do you fill hydraulic fluid on a case 1290 tractor?

On a Case 1290 tractor, the hydraulic fluid is typically filled through the hydraulic reservoir, which is located near the rear of the tractor. To access the hydraulic reservoir, you may need to remove a cap or cover on the top of the reservoir. It is important to use the correct type of hydraulic fluid recommended by the manufacturer and to fill the reservoir to the appropriate level to ensure proper functioning of the hydraulic system.
