Operating Instructions
Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this
manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Do not adjust or tamper with any control or component in a way not specifically explained within
this manual. Improper adjustment can result in tool failure or other serious hazards.
Inspect Drum Extractor before use, looking for damaged, loose, and
missing parts. If any problems are found, do not use unit until repaired.
Follow all guidelines regarding materials being extracted, including MSDS instructions and EPA regulations.
Note: For additional information regarding the parts listed in the following pages,
refer to Parts List and Diagram on page 14.
General Operating Instructions
CAUTION: Do not use the Drum Extractor on damaged
or rusted barrels. Barrel must have a sealed lid. This
unit pressurizes the barrel to extract liquid and will only
operate properly and safely on closed, sealed barrels.
1. With the Air Inlet Ball Valve in the closed
position, connect one end of an air hose to the
Air Quick Coupler on the Drum Extractor.
2. Connect the other end of the air hose to an
air compressor. Refer to Figure A: Portable
Air Supply Setup on page 8 and Figure B:
Stationary Air Supply Setup on page 9
for typical air supply setup options.
3. Turn on the air compressor, and set its
regulator to 10 PSI. Do not exceed 10 PSI.
4. Set the Regulator on the Drum Extractor up to
10 PSI. Stay within air pressure capacity.
Do not operate the Extractor above 10 PSI.
Note: The rate of flow of the liquid being extracted
depends on its fluid viscosity. To adjust the
Regulator's PSI and alter the rate of flow, lift up
and twist the Knob on the Regulator. Then, push
in on the Knob. To increase air pressure, turn the
Knob clockwise. To decrease air pressure, turn the
Knob counterclockwise. Do not exceed 10 PSI.

For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797.
5. Open the Outlet Ball Valve first, then open
the Air Inlet Ball Valve to extract liquid through
the Outlet Tube into an appropriate container.
6. If the tool requires more force to accomplish
the task, verify that the tool receives sufficient,
unobstructed airflow (CFM) and increase
the pressure (PSI) output of the regulator up
to 10 PSI, the maximum air pressure rating
of this tool. Do not exceed 10 PSI.
7. To stop the flow of liquid close the Air Inlet Ball
Valve first, then close the Outlet Ball Valve.
8. When finished, close the Air Inlet Ball Valve and
turn off the air compressor. Hold an appropriate
container under the Outlet Tube to catch residual
liquid and open the Air Inlet Ball Valve again to
release any compressed air in the Extractor.
Turn the Regulator to its lowest setting. Close
the Air Inlet Ball Valve and Outlet Ball Valve.
Disconnect the air hose from the Drum Extractor.
9. Dispose of the collected liquid in accordance
with all applicable local, state and federal laws.
10. If necessary, unscrew and remove the
Drum Extractor from the barrel. Replace the bung
on the barrel. Wipe the tool dry and store in a
clean, dry, safe location out of reach of children.
