Oil Change System
SYSTEM START-UP PROCEDURES
When starting the system for the first time,
air will be in all of the lines. Operating the
system without oil or lubricant will damage
the pump’s impeller. Although your
pump/motor unit was tested prior to
shipment, the amount of oil surrounding the
impeller may not be sufficient to ensure
proper starting lubrication and vacuum. To
avoid damage, the following procedure is
advised:
1. Insert the PVC wand of the drain/fill hose
into a container of a small amount (about
1/2 quart) of fresh oil.
2. Release the fail-safe lock device on the
pump/motor unit valve handle and direct
the arrow-shaped tip to STARBOARD.
3. Flip the motor control switch to the FILL
position. The pump will start immediately
and you will observe the oil moving
through the clear plastic tubing toward
the pump/motor unit.You should hear a
noticeable change in sound (speed) of
the pump motor when the oil enters the
pump.
4. Continue to operate the pump for 5 to 10
seconds after pumping action begins,
then return the pump/motor switch to the
OFF position and secure the oil filler cap.
CAUTION
If oil does not move quickly through
the clear tubing toward the pump,
turn the switch to the OFF position,
elevate the clear tubing until it nears
the entrance of the pump, then flip
the switch to the FILL position
again. This will lubricate the pump
and ensure a good starting vacuum.
