MIXING OIL STABILISER WITH OIL

Bimrose Oil Stabiliser may be used to reduce oil consumption, noise and temperature in all motors, transmissions, diffs, hydraulics and reduction boxes.  Oil Stabiliser will fortify most oils, often reducing or eliminating oil leaks, oil consumption, gear noise or hydraulic squawk. When added to oil or grease it can add life to bearings. Please ask for further information and recommendations if you feel your application requires use of oil stabiliser.

The most important thing to remember is that oil stabiliser has to be mixed with all of the oil, not just added to the contents of the oil tank. To illustrate the mixing process we will use hydraulic oil as an example. Mixing may be achieved quite easily by adding the Oil Stabiliser with a portion of the contents of the oil from the hydraulic tank, or oil that is to be added to the tank. This will allow the mixture to blend in with all of the oil because of reduced viscosity and the fact that by following this procedure, all of the oil will be hot. Never add cold stabiliser, even to hot oil, and hope it will mix, because it won't.
If the hydraulic tank holds 100 litres the charge rate would be between 5 and 20 percent or 5 to 20 litres depending on the severity of the job required of it.

Take a clean container, about 15 litres of the chosen oil and heat to 60-70 degrees C, (too hot to touch). The Oil Stabiliser can be heated at the same time. A barbecue is ideal as both may be heated while you are getting the oil in the machine to operating temperature. Add the oil + additive and mix completely. Now with the machine at operating temperature, add the mixture to the oil in the oil tank, or sump, whichever is applicable.

It may appear that I keep repeating myself, but complete mixing is so important, that if not done correctly, you may find most of the additive stuck to the outer housing. Here it does not do its job of lubricating or stopping leaks.
