Use a cheap pto mounted roller pump to suck it out. When replacing it you will need to fill for a while then "Burp" it to let out air. After the burp, start filling again.

In regards to what to do with the solution removed from the tires, It is perficyly good to use in tires again,I would allow it to settle out ad avoid the real thick stuff in the bottom, If you are lucky You will have some plastic chemical drums, If you cant find any, Plastic garbadge cans are not expensive. Under no circomstance try to keep it in a metal container for an extended period, as it is very corossive.
Good luck! PNN

You can get the adapter at Tractor Supply for about $10.00. It makes it much easier to put one of the inline cutoffs on the end of the hose so you can cut off the water flow periodically and bleed off the air in the tire/tube (adapter has a bleeder on it). I just pull the valve core and use a garden sprayer to spray in antifreeze before I start putting the water in.

Hello,
I have a mystery garage sale purchase called a Sears & Roebuck, and Company Lathe # 149.2387.0.

I need some parts to make it run. Motor aside, I need chucks and the other gizmos needed to hold wood fast to the lathe. I am looking specifically for the the diameter and thread count of the receiving end and the end that could hold hold a three-jaw chuck. -- thanks. Stuart

Adapter usually available at parts stores -tsc,napa etc. I position valve down -hook up sprayer pump &empty tire into barrels. Turn valve up to pump back in. FLUSH PUMP.

Good question. Plus what do you do with the CaCl solution once it is removed?

If you are not going to re-use it, it's basically the same stuff that the road crews put down to keep gravel roads from getting dusty. The amount in one tire won't go very far, but if you have one specially bad spot in your driveway it will help.

Well I am not an expert at this, but I have done a few. To empty, place valve at bottom of wheel (wheel/tire on tractor) and connect a hose to the valve stem after unscrewing the valve from the tube. Drain the fluid into a container. It helps if you have the tire/tractor higher than you have the outlet end of the hose by at least 4-5 ft. When you have drained out all you can yo can put somemore air into the tire and see if it will force somemore fluid out. If not you have removed enough to take the tire off of the rim. After you have the tube out you can drain the rest. To refill after the tire and tube are all back and have been inflated once, put the fill adapter on the valve stem and connect up the hose. I use a garden hose attached with an adapter to the fill adapter. Drain, from a higher point, the fluid into the tire. You need to shut off the flow of fluid once in a while and bleed out air from the tire. Continue doing this until the tire is full to just below the level of the top of the rim. In other words you only fill the tire part way. You want to be able to check the tire pressure with the valve stem at the top without getting wet.
