6.3. Draining Waste Oil

It is recommended to drain the waste oil from the air extractor unit each time new oil is supplied.
Warning: When there is too much waste fluid in the air extractor unit, the extractor fan will scoop the waste fluid and blow it out through the air exit tubes.

  1. Make sure the unit is in its upright (storage) position.
  2. Place a small watertight bin under the drain plug .
  3. Turn open the drain plug .
  4. Wait for the flow of fluid to (almost) stop.
  5. Close the drain plug .
  6. The waste oil cannot be re-used because it may be polluted. Dispose of it in the same way as you dispose of the waste water from your lane stripper.
