Some vacuum units are too strong for the relatively low vacuum needed for
oil extraction; vent the vac hose as necessary to reduce/adjust vacuum in
the receiver bucket.

Do you mean discharge the oil at bottom of oil receiver can? I would
not; just provide adequate separation between oil discharge tube and vac
tube/hose at top of oil receiver can so that any air in the system slows
down enough to "drop" the oil without entering the vac tube/hose.
It helps if there is a vent of sorts between the shop vac and the
collection vessel so that:
1. the vac gets plenty of air for cooling
2. The vessel doesn't collapse
3. Flow velocity is low enough to prevent oil blowing around in a
hurricane.
