039 651 08 OUTLET COVER Acting as a protective seal, this outlet cover is typically found on the body of a hydraulic component like a drifter or rotation motor. Its main job is to close an unused port or seal a fluid gallery, keeping hydraulic oil in and contaminants out. A proper seal is essential for maintaining the cleanliness and integrity of the entire hydraulic circuit.

A cracked or improperly sealed cover can lead to significant problems. Even a small leak results in fluid loss and creates a pathway for abrasive rock dust and water to enter the system. This contamination quickly wears down expensive components like pumps and valves, leading to reduced drilling power and unexpected breakdowns.

Look for oil weeping around the cover's edges or visible cracks from impacts. If a leak is spotted, first check that the mounting bolts are secure. If the leak persists, the cover or its underlying gasket should be replaced. Always ensure the mating surface is perfectly clean before installing the new part to guarantee a tight seal.
