Oil and oil return systems:
The quality of the oil effects the oil consumption and the life time of the moving
parts. For oil return systems or systems in which soluble oil is being used, check
(or have checked) the quality of the oil every 5000 hours is strongly advised and -
if necessary - to renew the oil and/or filters. If there is no oil analysis available,
renewal of the oil is advised. By regularly carrying out oil analyses and registering
them in a log, aberrations will be noticed in an early stage, which may prevent or
reduce resultant damage(s).
