5. Maintenance and trouble shooting
5.1 Maintenance
Regularly:
•
Check and refill the upper oil reservoir with new, clean oil.
•
Clean the oil leveller. For this purpose the lower reservoir is equipped with a drainage
neck with a magnetic plug.
5.2 Trouble shooting
In case of different oil levels in the application and the oil leveller check that:
•
The application is provided with a ventilation nipple preventing over/under pressure.
In the case the oil continues to flow from the upper reservoir despite the pre-set level
having been reached:
•
Ensure the cover and the oil inlet on the upper reservoir is properly sealed.
In the case of excessive oil consumption check the application for leakage.
