Sage Oil Vac Promotes Environmental Responsibility Changing irrigation engine oil can become a cacophony of empty 5-gal. buckets rolling around the bed of a pickup, with the remaining dregs of some of those containers creat- ing an oil slick covering just about everything in reach. Combined with the heat, the odor of burned or used oil and the dirty or muddy conditions common around most irrigation engines is a scenario familiar to just about everyone familiar with the job — and one that few enjoy. In 1993, that exact scenario had become reality for Gary Sage, and he was looking for a change. The inventor inte- grated the oil vac system he created in servicing his own irrigation engines. The result: not a single drop of oil spilled on himself, his equipment, his machinery or the ground. Range of Oil Change Options Now almost three decades later, Sage’s invention has become the foundation for Sage Oil Vac, a company com- mitted to efficiency and environmental sustainability on job sites ranging from irrigation and wind turbines to heavy excavation in the United States and around the world. Currently, Sage Oil Vac offerings include lube trucks ranging from Class 5 to Class 8, fuel and lube trailers, lube skids, lube carts and a LubeBuilder system that can be customized to fit any vehicle and operation size. All Sage Oil Vac oil exchange systems feature a pump- free design that uses vacuum pressure technology and com- pressed air to exchange fluid at a rate of up to 15 gal. per minute.
