■ Do not perform any modifi cations or changes to the appliance yourself.
■ Protect the device against moisture and the penetration of liquids.
■ Pay heed to the instructions of the vehicle manufacturer regarding the pumping
of oil. Some vehicle manufacturers forbid pumping the oil out because the
sludging, such as from abrasion, would remain behind.
■ Be particularly careful when you are handling oil. Should oil come into con-
tact with the skin or eyes, rinse it off with water and seek medical attention.
■ Be particularly careful if you are working on a car battery. Battery acid could
leak out and cause serious injury. Should battery acid come into contact with
the skin or eyes, rinse the aff ected part off with water and seek medical attention.
■ Wear personal protective equipment. The wearing of per-
sonal protection equipment (work clothing, respirators, gloves and goggles)
reduces the risk of personal injury.
■ Ensure that your vehicle is not parked on a sloped surface, as it may not be
possible to eff ect a complete oil extraction. Ensure that the hand brake is
engaged.
■ Do not start the engine during the operation of the oil suction pump.
■ Do not pump oil at a temperature above 60°C and do not pump it when
the engine is running. The vehicle engine must be cool.
■ Always use the supplied hose clamps, otherwise the tube may fall off and
cause a spillage of the oil.
■ Do not use the device to pump petrol, paraffi n or other infl ammable liquids.
■ Be especially careful when dealing with infl ammable materials or fuels.
There is the risk of an explosion!
■ Ensure that the work area is well ventilated and that there are no open fl ames
or other ignition sources in the vicinity. Otherwise, there is risk of explosion!
■ Do not pump water, the oil suction pump will not be suffi ciently lubricated
and could overheat.
■ The device is not suitable for the storage and/or transport of fuels or other
liquids.
■ Do not pump diff erent oils into the same tank.
■ Be extra careful when operating the oil suction pump and do not leave it
unattended when it is in operation.
■ Use the oil suction pump only when the engine oil is warm.
Hot oil can melt the hose.
■ The oil suction pump must NEVER be operated without the suction hose,
otherwise the pump motor could be overloaded.
■ To avoid overheating or malfunctions, the oil suction pump should never be
operated continuously for longer than 30 minutes.
