I went to change my Hydraulic filter today and noticed that the
magnetic ring on the new filter was broken.
About a 1" section was broke away from the ring.
There were numerous small pieces like sawdust at the two breaks.
It was suggested to me that I could remove the broken magnet
and replace it with the magnet from my old filter. I said "no, I don't
think so".
Am I to paranoid. Would this actully be OK to do ??
I dont have any problem with my dealer, He was more than willing
to replace it if "I was not comfortable" using the broken filter.
