Theory of Operations
Descriptions of the various operations, control buttons, and indicators that make up the control panel are
listed below.
OFF MODE:
!
When the unit is connected to power, an alarm will sound indicating power-up, and the ENGINE START light will
be flashing.
!
When the vehicle is started, the unit will sound an alarm indicting that fluid and pressure from the vehicle have
reached the machine and the ENGINE START light will go steady on. It is now ready for service.
SERVICE MODE:
!
Push DRAIN button to perform a drain pan service on vehicle.
The unit will automatically rout the used fluid
from the vehicle’s transmission into the unit’s WASTE tank until the transmission is empty. Refer to the
Transmission Filter Change on page 4-4.
!
Push CHANGE FLUID button to perform a fluid exchange.
The unit will rout the used fluid from the vehicle’s
transmission into the unit’s WASTE tank, and supply an equal amount of new fluid from the unit’s CLEAN tank
into the transmission. During the service the DRAIN, FILL and ENGINE START lights will be on steady.
DRAIN MODE:
!
After service is complete, (COMPLETE light is on), if transmission level needs to be lowered, push the DRAIN
button. Fluid will drain only as long as the button is pressed, flow will stop when the button is released.
FILL (TOP OFF) MODE:
!
Push FILL button after service is complete (or COMPLETE light is on, see step below). Fluid will flow into the
vehicle’s transmission only as long as button is pushed.
!
If pressed at beginning of, or during service,
feature will not work (Alarm will beep). You must first have the
COMPLETE light on.
To get a COMPLETE light when not doing a service (engine off), first RESET the battery
connections, then push the CHANGE FLUID button, the unit will beep three times, then push the STOP button.
The COMPLETE light will now be on.
EXAMPLE: When checking the transmission’s fluid level before beginning the service, and the level in the
transmission is ½ of a quart or lower, to TOP OFF you must first get the complete light on (see step above). Then
push and hold the FILL button until the correct level is reached on the transmission dipstick. The alternative action
would be for the technician to add the correct amount of fluid manually to the transmission, before beginning the
service.
LOW CLEAN FLUID:
!
The light will be on when the CLEAN FLUID tank is empty down to the zero mark.
