Skidz Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 Just get one of those StarFrit can openers that leave no sharp edges... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skudkid Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 The plastic bottles are a pain in the winter if you have to pour a lot of oil, that’s a lot of caps to unscrew. The old style can opener/bottle opener, (the kind that’s just a pressed piece of steel), seems to work the best, I tie a piece of string to it with a loop on one end and hook it on to my belt, that way it’s always handy. I actually thought the pour able spout types were banned. My old company tried the plastic bottles about 8years ago for a couple of years then switched back to cans.

lamanated Posted May 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I just put the oils in plastic bottles especially on a 206 as you only deed a bit of hydraulic oil so I put it in a small tupperware one with the flip up spout.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 I use my side cutters to open the can and a funnel to pour oil into tank. The best funnel I've found is a colant funnel from canadian tire, It's yellow with a large opening and an offset rim, it's also small and takes hardly any room in your tool box.
