Hydraulic hose repair in field conditions

When a hydraulic hose bursts miles from the nearest shop, you learn to work with what you've got. Field repairs mean cutting the damaged section with a pocket knife, seating the fitting with a hammer if the crimp tool is back at the truck, and running a temporary bypass with a splice kit and some spare fluid. The real trick is bleeding the air out before the pressure spikes. It's never pretty, but when the excavator needs to move dirt by sundown, you make it hold.
