OPERATION 

 

SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS 

Use extreme safety measures when working around a running engine, pressurized storage vessels, and automotive chemicals. 
Always block the vehicle’s drive wheels. 
Ventilate the vehicle’s exhaust if engine will be started. 
Always wear safety glasses. 
Protective gloves are recommended.

 

 

PREPARATION 

Inspect the engine and the visible coolant system 

components for any signs of damage or unusual wear. 
Note the coolant level before beginning the service. If low, 

see “COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURE / LEAK CHECK” 

procedure to verify the system’s condition. 
Depending on the desired service, make appropriate 

connections (lowest and highest point) on the vehicle’s 

coolant system. 
Plug any open ports venting to the atmosphere (i.e. 

overflow hose or a system vent cap). 
To prevent running out of coolant and ingesting air, ensure 

coolant tank level is showing at least 3 gallons on the sight 

tube. 

 

 

 

 

 

PERFORM COOLANT DRAIN and CLEAN OPERATION

 

DRAIN COOLANT FROM VEHICLE INTO COOLANT 

TANK

  

Obtain a coolant sample if needed. 
Move the 

Flow Control 

to 

“OFF”

 and connect shop air. 

Connect the 

red

 service hose to highest point, the 

black

 

service hose to the lowest point, and open the ball valves. 
Turn 

all

 control panel valves to the 

YELLOW

 position. 

Move the 

Flow Control

 to 

“ON”

The system will begin to drain.
