What is one way to know your High Velocity Cleaner/Hydro Jetter needs maintenance?

In the context of using a High Velocity Cleaner or Hydro Jetter, recognizing when maintenance is needed is crucial to ensuring efficient operation and longevity of the equipment. A slow and sluggish moving reel can indicate that the hydraulic oil supply is low. Hydraulic systems rely on adequate oil levels to function properly; insufficient oil can lead to increased friction, insufficient fluid power, and overall poor performance. When the movement of the reel is sluggish, it's a strong sign that the hydraulic system is not receiving enough fluid to operate at optimal levels, thereby necessitating maintenance to check and replenish the hydraulic oil supply. This is an essential aspect of preventative maintenance to avoid more significant issues in the future.
