A Typical Day on the Job

No two days look the same in a hydraulic repair shop.

By afternoon, you could be matching seals for a marine steering system or heading out with a senior technician on an emergency call. Because we handle everything from small mobile equipment to large industrial presses, you will build a wider range of skills here in one year than many technicians gain in five.
