Not only does the filter keep dirt out, it also helps keep fluid in the reservoir when the tractor tilts. The fluid reservoir
is a long narrow tank so it doesn't take a lot of tilt to have fluid dribble out of the breather. This same modification can
be done to the drive line breather found in the center of the tractor drive line between your feet just in front of the seat
if you are working in very dirty conditions.

| Keeping Dirt Out |
The breather for the hydraulic reservoir is an open 1/4" tube on top of the filler plug. I added a little piece of hose
and a clear bodied in-line fuel filter to keep the dirt out.
