With some components,such as switches and resisters,reversing the polarity of flow through the device has no effect,while doing this to other components,such as solid state devices and motors,can cause the component to run backward,block electron flow,and even cause permanent damage to the device.

Hydraulic oil from a running system may be hot enough to burn skin,so try to avoid direct contact until you are sure it is safe.If a hydraulic oil puddle is uncontrolled,it can cover a much larger area than you might think.There are special barrier and damming devices that can help to control large spills.Leaks that generate an oil mist can also be a fire and breathing hazard.Most hydraulic oils are stable and take a lot of heat to ignite,except when dispersed as a mist in the air.Cleaning up hydraulic oil usually requires the use of some type of absorbing medium.You do not want to let hydraulic oil go down any drains connected to the sewer system as it is a contaminant and will wreak havoc at water treatment facilities or any natural waterways it might reach.When finished with the cleanup,make sure you dispose of any oil and oil-soaked materials properly.
