Abstract
A hydraulic circuit cleaning apparatus has a hydraulic circuit that includes an oil pump, an oil passage to which the oil pressure ejected from the oil pump is supplied, and a pressure regulator device connected to the oil passage for regulating the oil pressure in the oil passage. The apparatus cleans the hydraulic circuit by using a cleaning liquid. A discharge oil passage is connected to a discharge port of the pressure regulator device, so that the cleaning liquid is discharged out of the hydraulic circuit via the discharge oil passage.
