Digging into some hydraulic problems on the 560. I want to buy a pressure gauge for testing.
Not a hydraulics guy here - so just wondering if there's anything I should be looking for in a gauge.
I'm guessing 0-3000lbs would be a good range.
But I see a wide range of prices for gauges - from $8 all the way up to crazy expensive.
My instinct is - if in doubt, go middle of the road. But I don't want to waste money needlessly. I can't imagine I need to be super accurate.
My other concern - know the proper operating pressures involved, but I don't know if hydraulic systems spike (momentarily) in pressure, like much higher than the operation pressured. Is that a concern here?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
