Cleaning
Due to the impact air has on efficiency in hydrostatic
procedures:
drive applications, it is important that it is flushed out
of the system. Air causes inefficiency because its
compression and expansion rate is higher than that of oil
approved for use in hydrostatic drive systems. These flus-
hing operations should always be performed when a
hydrostatic system has been opened to facilitate mainte-
nance or to change the oil.
