Cleaning the centrifugal oil
cleaner
Always use genuine Scania parts during mainte-
nance of the centrifugal oil cleaner. This will en-
sure that the centrifugal oil cleaner continues to
function.
Tools
When the centrifugal oil cleaner is cleaned, there
should be some dirt deposits in the rotor cover.
This indicates that the rotor is working. If the ro-
tor cover is clean, in other words the rotor is not
working, the cause must be established immedi-
ately.
If the dirt deposit exceeds 28 mm at the recom-
mended maintenance intervals, the rotor cover
should be cleaned more often.
1. Clean the cover. Unscrew the nut securing
the outer cover.
2. Let the oil run out from the rotor.
3. Lift out the rotor. Wipe off the outside. Undo
the rotor nut and unscrew it about 1.5 turns to
protect the bearing.
