Maintenance

While straight cutting oils are not susceptible to the broad range of problems encountered with a water based fluid, regular maintenance does improve their performance and extend their life. The Hard Cut oils are designed to reject foreign contaminants, such as metal fines. If the performance of the oil begins to deteriorate, remove the oil from the machine and allow settling in a drum or settling tank for 3-7 days. Fines and contaminants will settle to the bottom. After settling return the top 80% to the clean machine. In order to get the maximum life from your oil, keep the sump free of cleaners, solvents, rust inhibitors, coolants and other contaminants, which may inhibit performance.

Cleaning

All Hard Cut oils are formulated to minimize cleaning time. They are cleanable in both aqueous and solvent systems. For best results use a Hangsterfer’s Ozonic series cleaner or recommended aqueous cleaner. Both style cleaners work best at removing Hard Cuts when heated to 140°F (60°C).
