I'm doing some repair work on a battery box/hyd tank on a 580SM & going to replace some rotted plate work for a local guy who owns the machine. We came across this pipe plug at the top of the tank & seeing that Im going to replace the whole plate between the battery & tank, we were wondering what that pipe plug is for, if anyone knows. I'm thinking it's not needed, as all connections are on the back of the tank for suction & return. Whats the verdict on this plug if anyone knows?
