3 years ago my neighbor had a chimney/ house fire, we came home and a little while later I kept hearing a truck or something running, 10 minutes later I go down cellar to check my woodstove, look out the window and see a truck parked in my wood lot, were I also park 2 of my trucks for the winter, now I'm wondering what the hell is going on, I go out to see and nobody's around, I look down the road 200 feet and there are all kinds of fire trucks, ect. Well a guy was standing by the other side of the road and I look down at my neighbors house and saw it was on fire, lots of water damage ect. I guess he had another chimney fire this past New Year's Eve. Problem is he put in too big of a wood stove, dampers it down, dosent clean his chimney enough, and burns green wood! Iv seem this liquid creosote dripping out of the stove pipes! We've tried to tell him but he don't listen, he's thing is go big or go home. Well he was lucky this time, he has a metal chimney pipe going up threw the house, the first one was a zero clearance, once it got hot enough it started the structure on fire, as my other neighbor said a masonry chimney will take a fire better than these pipe ones. Oh well, at least no one was hurt, but I can't believe he proudly gloats about burning green wood, I hope the next time it dosent turn into a tragedy. So just remember to sweep you chimney too.

This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
