NOD-9 Features
9 Gallon Tank Capacity
The NOD-9 holds up to 9 gallons of used oil, allowing you to perform multiple oil changes before needing to empty the tank. This is enough capacity for approximately two standard passenger vehicle oil changes or one larger truck service, reducing trips to the waste oil container and keeping your workflow efficient.
Adjustable Height Range
With a height range of 27 to 68 inches, the NOD-9 adapts to virtually any service situation. Position it low for ground-level work or extend it to reach drain plugs on vehicles elevated on two-post or four-post lifts. The adjustable design eliminates awkward positioning and reduces the chance of spills during draining.
17 Inch Diameter Funnel
The extra-wide 17 inch diameter funnel provides a large target area for catching oil, even when working on vehicles with hard-to-reach drain plugs. The generous opening helps prevent messy spills and allows you to position the drain with confidence under any vehicle.
Swivel Caster Wheels
Four swivel caster wheels allow the NOD-9 to roll smoothly across your shop floor, making it easy to position under vehicles and move between service bays. The casters provide 360-degree mobility so you can navigate around lifts, toolboxes, and other equipment without lifting the unit.
Integrated Tool Pan
A built-in tool pan wraps around the central tube, providing a convenient place to set drain plugs, crush washers, wrenches, and oil filters during service. This keeps your tools within reach and off the floor, reducing the chance of losing small parts or contaminating your work area.
1 Inch Vent Hole for Easy Draining
The tank includes a 1 inch vent hole that allows air to enter as you empty collected oil into a waste container. This venting prevents glugging and ensures smooth, controlled pouring when transferring used oil for recycling or disposal.
