Description
The Yato oil and petrol suction pump is a manual suction pump designed for transferring various operating fluids and lubricants, such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and petrol, cleanly and safely. The device has a 1.6 litre tank, whose capacity suits many common fluid changes. The pump is hand-operated, so it needs no electricity or compressed air, which makes it a versatile tool in different environments and locations.
The product is made of durable materials (PVC and PE), which guarantee chemical resistance to the fluids handled and extend the life of the device. The pack includes a 1.3 metre long flexible hose with a diameter of 8 mm. The length and flexibility of the hose give access to hard-to-reach places, such as filler openings or deep tanks. The 8 mm diameter ensures fluid flow during transfer.
This suction pump lets you pump fluids without splashes, which keeps the work environment clean and reduces the risk of environmental harm. The device is designed for controlled handling of fluids. Thanks to its compact construction, the pump is easy to store and transport. Please note that this model has no carrying handle or wheels; it is intended to be carried and used on a stable surface.
Intended use:
The Yato YT-07078 suction pump is used for controlled transfer of operating fluids and lubricants. Its typical uses are:
- Oil change: Extracting engine oil from the engine, especially where the drain plug is hard to reach.
- Cooling systems: Removing coolant from the expansion tank or radiator.
- Handling brake fluid: Extracting brake fluid from the brake fluid reservoir before servicing the system or changing the fluid.
- Transferring fuel: Extracting or transferring petrol from one tank to another, for example when refuelling or draining small engines.

Yato oil and petrol suction pump instructions for use:
Preparing for use:
Before use, make sure the Yato oil and petrol suction pump and the hose are clean and intact. Attach the flexible hose (Ø 8 mm) tightly to the pump connection. Make sure the connection is tight to maximise suction and prevent leaks.
Extracting fluid (draining):
Place the free end of the hose in the fluid you want to extract. Make sure the pump tank is upright on a stable surface. Use the pump mechanism (e.g. by pulling the handle or pumping, depending on the exact internal construction) to create a vacuum in the tank. The vacuum draws the fluid along the hose into the tank. Continue until the required amount of fluid has been transferred or the tank is full. Do not exceed the maximum capacity of 1.6 litres.
Maintenance and cleaning:
After each use, the pump and hose must be cleaned carefully. This is very important if the pump is used for different fluids, to avoid cross-contamination. Clean the parts with a suitable solvent compatible with PVC and PE and with the fluid used. If necessary, rinse with water (if suitable for the fluid) and let the parts dry completely before storage. Check the condition of the hose and seals regularly and replace damaged parts. Store the pump in a dry place, protected from direct sunlight.
Warnings:
Essential warnings for using the product:
- Flammable liquids: Take extreme care when handling petrol. Avoid open flames, sparks and smoking near the device. Make sure there is adequate ventilation to prevent vapours building up.
- Chemical exposure: Operating fluids and lubricants can be harmful to health. Always wear appropriate protective equipment, such as protective gloves and safety glasses. Avoid skin contact and breathing in vapours. If fluid gets on the skin or in the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
- Fluid compatibility: Make sure the fluid to be extracted is compatible with PVC and PE materials. Do not use the pump to transfer corrosive chemicals (e.g. strong acids or alkalis) unless they are specifically stated to be compatible.
- Overfilling the tank: Do not fill the tank beyond its maximum capacity of 1.6 litres.
- Disposal: Always dispose of used fluids (oils, fuels, brake fluids) in accordance with local environmental regulations and instructions for hazardous waste. Do not pour fluids into drains or onto the ground.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ):
Can this pump transfer diesel?
Although diesel is not specifically mentioned in the list, its properties are similar to petrol and engine oil. PVC and PE usually withstand diesel well. Check compatibility before use.
How thick an oil can this extract?
The Yato oil and petrol suction pump is suitable for ordinary engine oils. Very viscous (thick) oils or cold oil may slow down extraction considerably. Extracting oil is most effective when the oil is warm (but not hot; observe any temperature limits of the hose/pump, if stated).
How is the pump emptied after extraction?
The pump is emptied by removing the top/lid of the pump and pouring the fluid out of the tank.
Is this suitable for changing brake fluid?
The pump is suitable for extracting brake fluid from the reservoir. It can help with draining the brake system, but the actual brake fluid change (via bleeding) may need special tools. Clean the pump carefully after using it for brake fluid, as it is corrosive.
Recycling instructions:
Recycling of the packaging and product:
Packaging: Sort packaging materials (e.g. cardboard, plastic) according to local recycling instructions. Cardboard to cardboard collection, plastics to plastic collection.
Product: The product consists mainly of plastic parts (PVC, PE) and possibly metal parts in the pump mechanism. When the product has reached the end of its life, take it to an appropriate recycling point (e.g. plastic recycling, or a collection point for electrical and electronic waste if the device has electrical parts; in this case it is a manual device, so metal/plastic collection is the right place). Make sure the tank is completely empty and cleaned of fluid residues before recycling. Liquid residues must be disposed of as hazardous waste.
