5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for safe and effective use of your oil drain pan.

1. Prepare Vehicle: Ensure the vehicle is safely lifted and supported on jack stands or a lift. Allow the engine to cool slightly, but not completely cold, as warm oil drains more easily.
2. Position Pan: Using the T-handle and casters, carefully roll the oil drain pan under the vehicle's drain plug. Ensure the pan is centered and positioned to catch all draining fluid. Lock the swivel casters if available to prevent movement.

4. Monitor Capacity: Keep an eye on the fluid level in the pan to avoid overfilling. The 17-gallon capacity is substantial, but it's important to monitor.
5. Transfer Fluid with Electric Pump: Once draining is complete, or the pan is full, position a suitable disposal container next to the pan. Direct the discharge hose into the disposal container. Plug in the electric pump and turn it on to transfer the fluid.
6. Turn Off Pump: Once the fluid has been transferred, turn off the electric pump and unplug it from the power source.
7. Clean Up: Wipe down any spills immediately. Reinstall the vehicle's drain plug and lower the vehicle safely.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and proper function of your oil drain pan.

• Clean Pan: After each use, especially after transferring fluids, clean the interior of the pan and the grate to remove any sludge or debris.
• Inspect Hoses and Connections: Regularly check hoses for cracks, leaks, or blockages. Ensure all connections are tight.
• Check Pump: Inspect the electric pump for any signs of damage or wear. Ensure the power cord is intact.
• Caster Maintenance: Keep the casters clean and free of debris to ensure smooth movement. Lubricate if necessary.
