Empty the oil
1. Remove the strainer.
See Remove the impeller MT, HT (page 26).
2. Lay the pump on its side.
Lock the pump with supports to prevent it from rolling over.
3. Remove the oil screw.
There are two oil screws. Either screw can be used for drainage, but it is easier to
drain the oil if both oil screws are removed.
WARNING:
The oil housing may be pressurized. Hold a rag over the oil plug to
prevent oil from spraying out.
4. Turn the pump so that the oil hole faces downwards and let the oil run out.
