    Mazak QT-15 Way Lube Drain Tank Location

    Noobie here.
    Bought a Mazak QT-15 a couple years ago, still cant find where the way lube drain tank should go. We're doing a coolant change today and I figured it would be a good time to solve this problem once and for all. We've looked all over for any kind of drain hose and can't find anything. I know it's getting into the coolant, because it's not ending up on the floor. I rolled under the machine on a creeper with the coolant tank out of the way, but still can't find any sign of where the tank should go. Any pictures or descriptions would be a great help. Lathe was made in 1988.
    Thanks!

    A picture of your "way lube drain tank" would help. I am not sure about what you are talking about.
