Oil Change System - Regal 53 SC Owner's Manual

OIL CHANGE SYSTEM

An optional oil change system is installed on the forward
bulkhead of the engine room. It is designed to remove
crankcase oil from two diesel engines and a generator.
Also, the unit refi lls each crankcase oil pan with fresh oil
through a system of hoses and integrated pump. The unit
features dry run protection.
The oil change system is housed in a fi re retardant, high
impact, high gloss case. The pump is solid brass with a
special self-priming type impeller which pumps instantly
whether in the drain or fi ll mode.
Power is supplied through the vessel's 12 volt DC system.
There is a 25 amp breaker found on the DC distribution
panel which is located on the forward engine bulkhead. It
protects the system against overloads.
