Hydraulic Repair in Glendive, MT
A hydraulic system is pressure, flow and heat, and most failures show up as one of those going wrong. Mondak diagnoses complete hydraulic systems on trucks, loaders, excavators, forklifts, aerial lifts and wet kits by measuring rather than guessing — pressure at the pump and at the function, flow under load, temperatures, case drain and fluid condition. Common complaints include slow or weak functions, a function that works one direction only, an engine that bogs when hydraulics load up, oil running hot, and chatter or whining. Once the cause is found, we repair or replace the pump, motor, valve, relief, cylinder or hose that caused it.

THE MONDAK APPROACH
Diagnose first. Repair with purpose.
We measure before we replace. Pressure and flow tell us whether the pump is weak or the problem is downstream. Heat and case drain point to internal leakage. Aeration or cavitation often start at the suction side. Contamination is checked too, because a new pump in dirty oil won't last.
Hose failures and pressure and flow checks can happen on site across our mobile service area, including through our resident field technician in the Dickinson area. Component teardown, bench work and cylinder resealing are done in the Glendive shop.
