Why take samples of aircraft hydraulic fluid?

Skydrol.com - Frequently Asked Questions
The performance of the entire aircraft hydraulic system can be affected by the condition of the hydraulic fluid. If the hydraulic fluid additives are damaged or depleted, the hydraulic fluid may no longer perform adequately in the system. Only after sampling the hydraulic fluid for the purpose of fluid analysis can one determine the condition of the additives. This allows action to be taken before damage to the hydraulic system can occur.

What about dirt in the hydraulic fluid?

Stanley Hydraulic Tools Faq
Dirt in any system (air, electric, or hydraulic) will cause wear. Air tools suffer most from dirt because the compressor is sucking in dirt all the time and tool exhaust ports allow dirt to get into the tool. Since the hydraulic system is a sealed system, dirt gets in only by carelessness. And, to protect against this, the hydraulic system has a full-flow filter.
