OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Run the engine approximately 5 minutes to heat oil
(minimum oil temperature 140°F; maximum 185°F),
then shut off engine prior to oil removal.
2. Push the 1/2" suction hose onto the pump inlet hose
fitting. Position one hose clamp on the end and
tighten to secure the hose to the hose barb.
3. If using the 1/4" dipstick probe (instead of the
Female Garden Hose Connector), insert the probe
into the 1/4" x 1/2" (approximately 1" long) rubber
bushing until the end of the probe and the bushing
are flush with each other. Slide the hose clamp over
the end of the 1/2" hose and position the end of the
plastic probe, with bushing attached, in the end of
the suction hose. Slide the hose clamp to a position
where it will be approximately centered over the
probe/ hose bushing, and with a pair of pliers,
squeeze it together very tightly to affect a positive
airtight seal.
If using the Female Garden Hose Fitting, install it
onto the end of the 1/2" suction hose by inserting the
1/2" barb fitting into the
hose and secure it by
screwing together the
two halves of the plastic
clamp on the hose at the
position of the barb.
4. Clamp the power cord
alligator clips (red to
positive and black to
negative) to the termi-
nals of an appropriate
voltage battery.
NOTICE: Failure to use proper size fuse in power cord
fuse holder may cause motor damage and void
