Cleaning the centrifugal oil
cleaner
Tool
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.
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 deposits exceed 28 mm (1.1 in) at the
recommended maintenance intervals, the rotor
cover should be cleaned more often.
1. Remove the centrifugal oil cleaner.
2. Clean the cover. Unscrew the nut securing
the outer cover.
3. Let the oil run out from the rotor.
4. Lift out the rotor. Wipe off the outside. Undo
the rotor nut and unscrew it about 1.5 turns to
protect the bearing.
