[AT] 10 gallon oil drain pan

[Stephen Offiler]

I put the drain plug back in when the pan starts to get full-ish, dump that
pan into a 5-gallon pail, and repeat until all 7 gallons of hydro fluid in
my 1990 Ford 1520 HST is drained.  Messy?  Well, OK a little, but seriously
it is not enough to worry about.  I spread some newspaper under the tractor
first to protect my shop floor.  And keep a rag handy.  And wear nitrile
mechanic's gloves.

SO
