8. Oil & Filter Type – It has been determined that your Salsco CRV will perform best using a 25
micron filter. Salsco recommends using 15W-50 full synthetic oil. The oil should have a viscosity
rating of at least 122 SSU. While this is not a necessity, it will improve the overall performance of
your machine. Salsco is now using this filter and hydraulic oil on all machines using hydraulics.
Hydraulic oil should be changed after the first 150 hours, and every 500 hours thereafter.
9. Check the rotary brushes to be sure they are in proper adjustments. They should not touch the
roll, ⅛" clearance.
