CLEANING

Dirt and abrasive dust reduce the efficient working life of
parts and systems and lead to the costly replacement of
components. To help increase the service life of parts,
clean the exterior of all parts before beginning any
repairs.

Use cleaning fluids and solvents suitable for cleaning
parts that do not create safety hazards. Certain types of
cleaning fluid can cause skin irritation and can damage
components (such as rubber, electrical parts, etc.).

Servicing the hydraulic system in particular requires
cleanliness of the work area, as well as the components
on the vehicle.

Follow these suggestions before attempting to service
any hydraulic component:

1. Flush hose and tube assemblies with a solvent

compatible with hose materials. Blow excess solvent
away with shop air.

2. Plug or cap hydraulic fittings, hoses and tube

assemblies, and protect the threads until time of
installation. Clean up any spilled hydraulic fluid
immediately.

3. Flush the hydraulic oil reservoir or fuel tank with a

suitable solvent to remove paint, metal chips, etc.

4. Protect hydraulic system components from airborne

contaminants. Plug or cap all cylinder, valve,
reservoir, tank and pump openings until time of
installation.

5. Use clean, filtered oil when filling the system.

Maintain the hydraulic system at a minimum
cleanliness level of ISO code 18/15-particle ration
count.
