    The most obvious and easiest way of isolating most hydraulic malfunctions is to look for

    • Slow operation

    • Erratic operation

    • Fluid under the unit

    • Movement when the control valve is not actuated

    Correct Answer
    A. Fluid under the unit
    Explanation
    One way to identify most hydraulic malfunctions is by looking for fluid under the unit. This is because if there is fluid leaking from the hydraulic system, it indicates a problem with the system's seals or connections. Fluid under the unit can also suggest a potential issue with the hydraulic cylinder or pump. Therefore, observing fluid under the unit can be a clear indicator of a hydraulic malfunction.
