BX2380 HST oil film

Guys

Did the 50 hour HST oil change yesterday, noticed the entire unit was covered with a film of HST oil, any of you guys experienced this? Almost like a breather on the top of the unit is coating it. Normal?

Thanks, Pat

First it's not HST oil... It's Hydraulic oil.

And some oil film/fogging on new units might be normal.

Clean it up with a oil/grease remover, run it for a while and recheck.

I stand corrected, LOL! Thanks for the reply, will do.
