ABSTRACT:
An oil flushing adapter includes a pair of conduits which are connected at the same point to a bearing support at opposite sides of a rotor, and then pushed apart by an extension device to force the lower ends of the two conduits into sealing contact with a pair of oil outlets. The conduits are then provided with flushing hoses, valves and strainers to sample oil at the bearings for cleanliness, and to shut off oil flow when the oil is sufficiently clean.
