* It is highly recommended to use oil cooler when operating at temperatures above 65 °С.
Note - the specified temperature ranges refer to the oil temperature, and not to the ambient air temperature.
Note - For hydraulic systems with slightly increasing temperature, choose oils which viscosity is at least 100 mm²/sec. at
the lowest start temperature. This eliminates slow operation, cavitation and adverse events.
For extremely cold climate conditions with tempera
tures below minus 30°С use hydraulic fluids with high viscosity in-
dex(aircraft fluids with the viscosity index > 250). If the the operating temperature is not reached, you need to heat the oil
before use.
