Default Oil change

Hi guys, I planning on a switch of oils from Fuchs Pro-R 10w50 to the Motul 300v but am unsure how to make sure all the old oil is out of the oil cooler? Will it all drain out of the oil filter when removed? I have a thermostatic sandwich plate.

might be best to disconnect one of the coller lines to be absolutely clear, to be fair they will mix if there is a little in the system...........
