Precautions:
This equipment is designed for servicing a variety of vehicles in a safe and convenient manner. However, dif-
ferences in engine blocks and dip stick congurations may make it impossible to use this equipment on every
vehicle. The procedures documented in this manual are to serve as guidelines for general use of this equipment.
In addition to these guidelines, always follow the manufacturer’s recommended procedures when attempting to
use this equipment on each unique vehicle. Do not attempt to force the tubes included with this equipment into
a dip stick tube that will not readily accept the smaller of the two tubes. The tubes would appear to be too large
and not designed to be used with the particular vehicle.
Draining oil with this evacuator unit through the dipstick tube is expected to be simple and straightforward. The
instructions were written as a general guideline only.
NOTE: DO NOT FORCE THE TUBE INTO ANY CRANKCASE AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU STOP PUSHING
THE TUBE IN IF ANY FORCE IS RECOGNIZED. YOUR PARTICULAR DEALER SHOULD BE CONTACTED
FOR DETAIL ON USING THIS EQUIPMENT TO EVACUATE OIL FROM YOUR CAR IF ISSUES ARISE.
Always read carefully and understand instructions prior to using this equipment.
Tighten lid-to-reservoir screws befor rst use and periodically to ensure proper seal.
Recommended Fluids:
Engine Oil, Gear and Transmission Oils, Power Steering Fluid, Coolants, Brake Fluid and Other
Similar Fluids.
DO NOT USE WITH GASOLINE.
The reservoir tank of the Fluid Evacuator Plus is equipped with an automatic shut-off valve to prevent over-ll-
ing of the reservoir tank. As the uid being evacuated ows into the reservoir tank it will raise the oat. When
the oat reaches the shut-off valve, the ow of uid being extracted will automatically stop.
Extracting from and Dispensing Motor Oil into a Crankcase
1. Park vehicle on level ground, ensure the transmission of the vehicle is in “neutral” or “park” position and
apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine. Allow the engine to idle until it reaches normal operating temperature. Once this is ac-
complished, turn engine off.
3. Remove the engine oil dipstick.
4. Select and insert the smallest diameter dipstick tube into the dipstick hole until it reaches the bottom of the
oil pan. Connect the main suction tube to the dipstick tube.
5. Insert the opposite end of the main suction tube into the 10mm x 90° tube connector on the top of the reservoir
tank. Take care that tube is in the connector all the way to prevent leakage.
6. Place the selector valve mounted on the side of the pump assembly to “EVACUATE”.
7. Raise the pump handle on the reservoir tank until it reaches its highest limit. Pump the handle approximately
ten times. The unit will begin to extract the oil from the engine crankcase.
NOTE: Due to the varying uid capacities of engines, it may be necessary to empty the uid reservoir tank
and restart the process if the crankcase capacity exceeds 8 liters.
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE OF FLUIDS:
176° Fahrenheit (80° Celsius)

8. Once the oil has been extracted from the crankcase, remove the expandable rubber plug from the reser-
voir tank; pour the oil from the tank into a suitable container, and dispose of the oil in an appropriate man-
ner. Rinse out the reservoir tank with clean solvent or engine degreaser. Allow it to dry thoroughly.
9. If you wish to use the Fluid Evacuator Plus to dispense oil, ll the cleaned reservoir tank with new oil and
simply switch the selector valve that is mounted on the side of the pump assembly to “DISPENSE”.
10. Pull up on the pump handle and begin pumping until the engine crankcase is lled to the desired level.
11. Run the engine momentarily to circulate the new oil and then re-check the level.
Extracting From and Dispensing Fluid into Transmission Cases and Differentials
1. Follow Steps 1 & 2 above. (See Extracting and Dispensing Motor Oil into a Crankcase)
2. Remove the transmission uid dipstick or ll plug.
In some applications this may require jacking or lifting the vehicle. Use appropriate safety stands to avoid
serious or fatal injury.
3. Select and insert the appropriate diameter dipstick tube into the dipstick ll hole until it reaches the bottom
of the transmission pan or gear case. Connect the main suction tube to the dipstick tube.
4. Insert the opposite end of the main suction tube into the 10mm x 90° tube connector on the top of the reservoir
tank. Take care that tube is in the connector all the way to prevent leakage.
5. Place the selector valve mounted on the side of the pump assembly to “EVACUATE”.
6. Raise the pump handle on the reservoir tank until it reaches its highest limit. Pump the handle approxi-
mately ten times. The unit will begin to extract the transmission uid from the transmission.
7. Once the transmission uid has been extracted, remove the expandable rubber plug from the reservoir
tank; pour the transmission uid from the tank into a suitable container, and dispose of the transmission
uid in an appropriate manner. Rinse out the reservoir tank with clean solvent or engine degreaser. Allow
it to dry thoroughly.
8. If you wish to use the Fluid Evacuator Plus to dispense transmission uid, ll the cleaned reservoir tank
with new transmission uid and simply switch the selector valve that is mounted on the side of the pump
assembly to “DISPENSE”.
9. Pull up on pump handle and continue pumping until the transmission is lled to the desired level.
10. Follow the operating instructions for your vehicle to properly check the transmission uid level.

3. Select the appropriate “dipstick” tube and connect it to the main suction tube.
4. Insert the opposite end of the main suction tube into the 10mm x 90° tube connector on the top of the reservoir
tank. Take care that tube is in the connector all the way to prevent leakage.
5. Place the selector valve mounted on the side of the pump assembly to “EVACUATE”.
Extracting and Dispensing Coolant into a Cooling System
1. Allow the engine to cool.
2. Remove the radiator/expansion tank cap.
Prior to inserting the extraction tube into the master cylinder reservoir, be sure that the extraction tube is
clean and free of any other types of uid. Failure to do so would result in contamination of the brake uid
in the hydraulic system and cause potential brake failure.
Never remove the cap from the radiator or expansion tank while the engine is at operating temperature. Al-
ways allow the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap or expansion tank cap. The cooling system
is under pressure. Failure to allow the engine to cool before attempting to remove the cap could result in
serious injuries.
3. Select the largest diameter dipstick tube and insert the tube into the radiator neck or expansion tank.
4. Insert the opposite end of the main suction tube into the 10 mm x 90° tube connector on the top of the
reservoir tank. Take care that the tube is in the connector all the way to prevent leakage.
5. Place the selector valve mounted on the side of the pump assembly to “EVACUATE”.
6. Raise the pump handle on the reservoir tank until it reaches its highest limit. Pump the handle approxi-
mately ten times. The unit will begin to extract the coolant from the cooling system.
7. Once the coolant has been extracted, remove the expandable rubber plug from the reservoir tank; pour
the coolant from the tank into a suitable container, and dispose of it in an appropriate manner. Rinse out
the reservoir tank with clean solvent or engine degreaser. Allow it to dry thoroughly.
8. If you wish to use the Fluid Evacuator Plus to dispense coolant from the Fluid Evacuator Plus, ll the
cleaned reservoir tank with new coolant and simply switch the selector valve that is mounted on the side of
the pump assembly to “dispense”.
9. Pull up on pump handle and continue pumping until the cooling system is lled to the desired level.
10. Be sure to run the engine until it reaches operating temperature to circulate the new coolant and then re-
check the level to be sure that it is full.
Extracting Brake Fluid from the Master Cylinder
1. Clean the exterior of the master cylinder and master cylinder cap. (This will prevent dirt from entering the
master cylinder reservoir when the cap is removed.)
2. Remove the lid of the master cylinder reservoir.

6. Insert the end of the extraction tube into the master cylinder reservoir.
7. Raise the pump handle on the reservoir tank until it reaches its highest limit. Pump the handle
approximately ten times. The unit will begin to extract the brake uid from the master cylinder reservoir.
8. Once the break uid has been extracted, remove the expandable rubber plug from the reservoir tank; pour
the break uid from the tank into a suitable container, and dispose of it in an appropriate manner. Rinse out
the reservoir tank with clean solvent or engine degreaser. Allow it to dry thoroughly.
9. After all repairs are accomplished, rell the system with new, manufacturer approved brake uid from a
sealed container.
