1. Follow Manufacturer Recommendations
- Baseline oil change schedule based on operating hours or annual timetable.
- During the break‑in period, shorten the initial interval to remove metal debris.
- Ensure system cleanliness and prevent premature wear.
2. Adjust Based on Operating Conditions & Environment
- In harsh conditions (high temperature, pressure, dust), oxidation and contamination accelerate.
- Shorten the oil change interval and intensify filtration maintenance.
- Prevents component wear caused by impurities.
3. Monitor Signs of Oil Deterioration
- Darkening, milky turbidity, or acidic/burnt odor indicate severe degradation.
- Replace oil immediately if there is a noticeable change in viscosity.
- Prevent system damage from contaminated hydraulic fluid.
4. Follow Standardized Oil Change Procedures
- Drain old oil while warm and flush pipelines with new oil at low pressure.
- Replace the filter element and thoroughly clean the oil tank interior.
- After filling, run the equipment without load to purge air before resuming production.
