3.6 Cleaning activities

3.6.1. Flushing a contaminated gearbox

Different types of oil
As the Shell Tivela S 150 (Kyodo Yushi TMO 150)is not compatible with mineral oil,
contamination with other types of oils used in the gearboxes is not accepted. Equipment used
in handling of Tivela S 150 (Kyodo Yushi TMO 150) must be carefully cleaned.
This section details how to flush the primary gears of axis 4 and 5, and the gearbox of axis 6
in case of contamination with other type of oil.
