APPROVED OIL EVACUATION EQUIPMENT
The purpose of this Service Information is to inform dealers that Approved Oil Evacuation Equipment, which is used to extract used engine oil from
the engine via the oil dipstick tube, is now available for order. Mercedes-Benz engines are designed to allow the extraction of engine oil from under
the hood via the dipstick tube. The engine dipstick tube has an enlarged cross section, plus a formed extension at the top end where the dipstick is
inserted and the approved engine oil evacuation equipment interfaces. The opposite end of the dipstick ends just short of the oil pan bottom, thus
engine oil can be extracted via the approved oil evacuation equipment by using the dipstick tube. Additionally, the engine dipstick tube itself is the
conduit through which spent engine oil is moved to the oil evacuation equipment.
In addition, service and repair components for existing approved oil evacuation equipment is also available.
Note:
Because the engine oil dipstick tube is the conduit through which spent engine oil is extracted, inserting tubular probes through the dipstick tube
is NOT recommended.
Special Note for M-class:
Due to the location of the vehicle frame and suspension components, the draining of engine oil via the engine crankcase oil drain plug is not
recommended, since this can lead to engine oil coming in contact and subsequently be damaging to the rubber suspension components. Thus, it is
strongly recommended to use the approved oil evacuation equipment contained in the Service Information for this purpose.

with one operation:
Air pressure Data:
Air requirement for activation: 100 psi
Air requirement for emptying: 7 - 14 psi
Additional Operational Information:
The technician activates the unit by simply connecting shop air for 3-4 minutes. (*TIP: when depressurizing the unit, open the valve between globe
and reservoir tank.) This creates a vacuum in both the globe and the tank. Then close the valve after unit is fully charged. When extraction of one
vehicle is completed, open the dump valve and the vacuum in the tank will automatically recharge the globe while the oil is being transferred into the
holding tank. To empty the unit, close the valve between the globe and the reservoir, then charge the unit with 7 - 5 psi of shop air, move unit to bulk
waste oil holding tank, place the hooked hose in the tank, open the exhaust valve and it will automatically empty.
