I've been getting a few chest infections lately, think it might be the coolant in my surface grinder any ideas how to get rid of tramp oil ?
Sadly my shop has only slightly better coolant quality... In some of the machines anyways. Some of the machines have skimmers but I looked and they can be $500+ (American here) I once had to pull out what was like animal fat/lard from a coolant tank once. Gloved up but that didn't last long. Some pieces were like taking a raw steak and then slapping it in this bucket I had.
The coolant we have is supposed to be white like paper, but it's somewhat green/yellow and or black. But it's usually a layer over the somewhat white coolant. You may have to hand skim what you can. Could take a shop vac and suck the top portion off... I've been wanting to try that on some of the machines with less then quality coolant. We normally use it to drain the tanks when it is deemed too far gone... I guess...
What Mike1974 and mhajicek said would be ideal, if you can do it.
