Use and Care Manual

Assembly Instructions for LiquiVac Oil Change System: Small Engine Model 2005

1. Place black (1-¼”) gasket inside cap-valve.

2. Screw cap-valve on the tank to create a snug fit (without excessive force).

3. Insert clear hose into cap-valve as far as it will go to achieve an airtight connection. (If needed,

lubricate hose with soapy water to insert hose).

4. Check that pump cap is reasonably tightened onto tank.

Instructions for Use

Warm oil:

For best results, run cold engine for 1-2 minutes to slightly warm oil. Do not use with hot

engines (no more than 105 °F). Failure to comply may result in tank distortion and/or

collapse of hose and/or tank.

Close cap-valve.

Observe open and closed markings on cap-valve. Twist cap-valve clockwise to closed

position.

Pump to create vacuum for your project.

Use 20-30 pump strokes to develop a vacuum.

Open cap-valve.

Twist cap-valve dial counter clockwise to the open position. Watch for oil to flow through

the hose and into the tank.

Move hose to vacuum all oil.

If you hear a gurgling sound and perhaps see bubbles in the hose, immediately move the hose

slowly up and down just a fraction of an inch to ensure thorough and efficient oil removal. If more

vacuum power is needed to completely remove oil, twist the spout cap-valve dial back to the

closed position, pump 10 to 15 times, then twist dial to open and continue vacuuming oil.

Careful: Do not pump with dial in open position to avoid pulling oil into pump and possibly

out the handle.

Close cap-valve. Replace dipstick. Refill engine oil. Recycle used oil.

Twist cap-valve to closed position and screw pump handle onto tank in locked position.

Replenish oil supply following manufacturer’s recommended engine oil type and

capacity. To find a recycling center nearest you, visit www.recycleoil.org

Warning: Never use with gasoline or other flammable liquids. Do not use with

hot liquids!

Troubleshooting 1. The key problem most people have operating the LiquiVac is that the gaskets not sealing properly to hold the vacuum. You can check this by listening for air leaks. Unscrew cap-valve from tank and remove gasket. Reinsert gasket into cap-valve and screw onto tank as tight as possible using only your hands. Remove pump from tank. Make sure the large black gasket is seated properly against the tank rim. Screw pump back onto tank and hand tighten.
