Does it need to be primed?
No — it is self-priming. Once the hose is in the oil and the leads are clipped to the battery, flip the switch and the oil sucks itself straight into the container. Zero manual pumping required.
What oils can this pump handle?
It is designed for engine, lubricating, gear and ATF oil. Do not use it for gasoline, diesel or water.
Does it work with both 12V and 24V systems?
Yes — it supports both 12V and 24V DC. Clip the red lead to positive and the black lead to negative on your battery.
Does it work on cold oil?
Cold, heavy grades move slowly through any pump. Run the engine a few minutes first so the oil thins out, and the same motor drains noticeably faster.
How do I install it?
Remove the caps, push the hose into the connector, clamp it tight, clip the red lead to positive and the black lead to negative on your battery, then place the inlet into the oil pan and the outlet into your waste container. Switch on when ready — the pump primes itself.
How long can it run continuously?
Up to 30 minutes of continuous running. The aluminum alloy body and pure copper motor are built to handle the full job without stalling.
What comes in the box?
A complete kit: 1 electric oil extractor pump, 2 aluminum connectors, 1 adapter for 8-to-8 hoses, 1 adapter for 6-to-8 hoses, 1 hose clamp, and 3 hoses (one 10 mm outlet, one 6 mm inlet, one 8 mm inlet — each 1 m long).
Will it fit my car?
It works with most cars, motorcycles, ATVs, trucks, lawn mowers, generators and boats that have a dipstick tube or accessible oil pan. If your engine has a sealed system with no dipstick, this pump is not suitable.
