HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FLUSHING _____________________________________
When changing from mineral to Greenscare™ Bio-degradable oil.
Terresolve™ EnviroLogic ® BioFlush is a carefully designed fluid which helps to flush and remove petroleum oil
from hydraulic systems. This is done when converting hydraulic systems to the use of biodegradable fluids.
EnviroLogic ® BioFlush will condition the internal hydraulic system to help optimize both overall system
performance and fluid biodegradability.
1.
Run equipment until warm. Drain petroleum hydraulic fluid and replace all hydraulic filters.
2.
Fill system with EnviroLogic ® BioFlush. Run equipment for 5 minutes until fluid is completely circulated.
3.
Drain the BioFlush and replace hydraulic filters.
4.
Fill system with approved Greenscare™ biodegradable ISO VG 46 hydraulic oil.
The hydraulic system is now optimised for fluid biodegradability in the event of leakage.
When changing from vegetable to mineral oil there is no need to flush the system.
