Rolling Oil Change Pan Empties Itself

Rolling Oil Change Pan Empties Itself FARM SHOP Miscellaneous 26-2-29 Handling and storing used engine oil can make quite a mess, but B.G. Schlueter and Bryan Schluter, Schlueter Equipment Sales Inc., Royal, Illinois, says they've found a way to keep things clean and neat. Their EZ Oil Shuttle is built to catch drain oil from engines. The 20 by 24-in. oil pan on rollers holds 15 gal. of waste oil. After filling, it can be wheeled out of the way. An optional pump empties the shuttle into storage tanks or barrels. Bryan says the shuttle, just 12 in high, is sized to roll under most cars, pickups, semi trucks, tractors and other farm machinery. It has a screen for draining oil filters. The tank is made from 16-gauge sheet steel, cut and welded on all edges, so it weighs nearly 40 lbs. The 4-in. wheels on all four corners keep it stable but it can be moved easily. The optional gear pump, available with either 115-volt AC or 12-volt DC 1/2-hp motors, can handle oil, hydraulic fluid and most other heavy liquids. A complete unit, with tank, screen, lid, pump and hose, is priced at $370. If you don't need the pump, you can buy the tank separately for $160. Shipping is extra.
