Eventually I'll probably set up either a live hydraulic pump or the 'christmas tree' setup on the filler tube of my '47 H. If I do, I'll work a filter into the return line. Until that happens, I'm wondering if I can do _some_ filtering of the lift-all's hydraulic oil. Is it possible to plumb, in sequence, a shut-off valve and a filter up to one of the belly-pump ports and have it's outlet hosed to a T on the filler pipe? The other working port(s) could have shut-off valves as well. To engage a filtering operation after the belly-pump's day was done, close the working ports and open the filtering port and cycle the oil through the filter? I'm imagining that would deliver so much oil to whatever is breathing at the filler pipe you'd be blowing oil out the breather. Any ideas on how to get around this? I see filter setups that can take twenty and thirty-five GPM so I would think this kind of thing is possible with the eight GPM (800 PSI) of the lift-all. I know I might get the usual 'just change your oil more frequently'. I change it frequently enough - according to the work and moisture. I'm looking for a possible simple improvement here.

He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
