1
) every month.

Change the oil:
Change oil after every 7,500 operating hours.
To refill the oil, switch off the machine and bleed to atmospheric pressure.
We recommend using Elmo Rietschle oils (also see Recommended oil label (Fig. 9/M)) as operating agent.
Elmo Rietschle oil types:
OXY-GEAR-LUBE 160 – Synthetic oil, high chemical, thermal and oxidative stability
The lubricating oil is inert and therefore, it does not generate explosive gas
mixtures.
The viscosity of the oil used must comply with ISO VG 160 as per DIN 3448.
Also consider the safety data sheet of the oil type used.
If you want to change the oil type, please contact us.
