normal cleaning, which should be done with a damp cloth (water

and alcohol or normal detergent for household appliances made out

of plastic).

IMPORTANT! Do not use cleaning solutions that can damage

plastic containers.

Emptying the Tank

Before the tank approaches maximum ﬁll (as seen through the

Sight-Gauge (5) , empty the tank by connecting Camlock Fitting (20)

to an Evacuation System. The length of Suction Pipe (22) ensures

that it clears the tank bottom to prevent solids and sediments from

being sucked into and damaging the evacuation pump.

C AU T I O N

It is highly recommended that the tank be emptied and cleaned

of all sediments through frequently scheduled maintenance.

Sediments may build up high enough to start clogging the Suction

Pipe (22) before the next scheduled tank purge. A stop-gap feature

has been designed into the Suction Pipe (22) to enable oil evacua-

tion to proceed temporarily (See Figure 3).

1. Apply a wrench to Camlock Fitting (20) and turn it counter

clockwise. [If necessary, secure Plug (21) with a pipe wrench to

hold it stationary.]

2. Raise the Suction Pipe (22) to a maximum height of 1-5/8

inches (41mm).

3. Connect Camlock Fitting (20) to an evacuation system and com-

plete emptying of the tank.

4. Schedule a tank purge as soon as possible before the tank ﬁlls

up with more sediments and solids.

5. Upon completion of the tank purge, turn Camlock Fitting (20)

clockwise as far down as possible to reset the Suction Tube (22)

height.
