  2. Attach one end of the hose (A) to the pump body (B) and then tighten the nut (C).

  3. Install the bottle (D) by turning it clockwise.

    NOTE: The end of the hose (A) must have a minimum length "X" inside the bottle (D) so that it does not stay entirely in.

    IMPORTANT: Keep the bottle cap (D) inside the bag supplied with it, thus avoiding its contamination.

  4. Insert the hose (A) on the tube (B) of the dipstick.

    IMPORTANT: Handle the hose (A) carefully avoiding its contact with any part of the harvester, and thus contaminating the oil.


  5. Operate the pump (C) manually for the oil to be sucked. If the oil is not sucked in, push the hose (A) a little more into the tube (B).

    IMPORTANT: Never turn the pump (C) upside down, keep it in an upright position. Failure to observe this procedure may cause its contamination.

  6. When the bottle (A) is full, loosen the nut (B) for air to enter and the oil stops from being sucked.
