Manual Oil Disposal

To avoid severe burns and equipment damage: Use PPE. Allow the oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before removing. Only use a shuttle or approved container to transport oil. Ensure the filter pan is empty prior to preforming these procedures. Do not transport oil without cover in place. Do not put water and/or cleaner in the shuttle; oil only. Pumping hot oil through the unit damages the pump over time.

This section explains the manual process for draining and disposing of oil. Once the oil has degraded, the vat is drained completely and refilled with new oil. The degraded oil is manually transported to an oil storage container, using an Oil Disposal Shuttle (ODS).
