The preliminary separator is made of a corrosion-resistant metal mesh, is non-wearing, and can be
cleaned/rinsed:
Cleaning interval: Clean when obviously clogged and dirty, i.e. if full of shavings, hardened oil, abraded
material, grease residues.
And at least every 4 weeks.
Directions: Use hot water and a grease-removing cleaning agent with a high-pressure cleaner or
in a component washing system.
Parts will have oil and coolant lubricant residue. Wastewater must be disposed of properly and in an
ecologically responsible manner.
