Flushing
Flush out old fluid with new fluid, or flush out old fluid
with a compatible solvent before introducing new fluid.
All fluid components are compatible with common sol-
vents. Use only moisture-free solvents. See
on page 86 for list of wetted components to verify
compatibility of solvent with wetted materials. See sol-
vent manufacturers information for material compatibil-
ity. To prevent moisture from reacting with isocyanate,
always leave the system dry or filled with a mois-
ture-free plasticizer or oil. Do not use water. See
Important Two-Component Material Information

Grounding the solvent pails used when flushing
: follow
your local code. Use only metal pails, which are conduc-
tive, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place pail on
a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard,
which interrupts grounding continuity.
