- place under the drain sleeve a collecting container
for old oil;
- take from the equipment available the relevant
draining hose;
- unscrew the blanking plug (3) from the oil drain
sleeve (1);
- screw up the hose (2). The sleeve (1) opens auto-
matically and oil is discharged;
- once oil has been drained, unscrew the hose (2).
The drain sleeve (1) closes independently;
- retighten the protection cover (3).
