USER AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
6.1
Operating the Magnetic Grabber
6.1.1 Connecting the Magnetic Grabber
Please ensure that, on the side of the vehicle were the system is
installed, no persons are present in an area of 3 feet (1 m)
under and / or around the VSRX system and /or between the
vehicle and the entry / exit door when the vehicle exits the
building. This way possible injuries can be avoided by a possible
backwards motion of the Grabber in the direction of the station
and park position.
When a vehicle returns to its bay the Magnetic Grabber nozzle
can easily be attached to the conical tailpipe adapter.
The Magnetic Grabber nozzle must be placed straight onto the
conical tailpipe adapter, but to connect it is easiest to first attach
the top of the Magnetic Grabber and then press down on the
safety disconnect in order to attach the lower part of the
Magnetic Grabber.
The conical design of the connection surface ensures safe and
easy positioning.
6.1.2 Disconnecting the Magnetic Grabber
a. Automatic disconnect - The Magnetic Grabber nozzle will
disconnect automatically when the vehicle exits the bay.
b. Manual disconnect - To manually disconnect the Magnetic
Grabber nozzle; hold the safety disconnect with two hands
and push it downwards.
6.1.3 Cleaning Instructions
To ensure a good magnetic connection at all times, you will need
to ocassionally clean a few components:
a) Make sure you keep the connection surface of the conical
tailpipe adaptor clean of soot and other contaminations.
b) Using a damp cloth (rubbing alcohol, degreaser, or other
fast-evaporating solvent), wipe the connection surface of the
Magnetic Grabber
®
.
d) Using a damp cloth, wipe the entire vertical face/sealed
flange of the conical tailpipe adapter. Diesel soot build-up
may occur when idling or driving at slow speeds.

2. Check if the conical tailpipe adaptor is clean and there are no
obstructions that can prevent the magnets from positioning
themselves on the product.
3. Remove the hose assembly from the balancer and check the
hose for any defects.
4. Make sure the metal saddle and Magnetic Grabber
are still
fixed tightly to the hose.
