SAFETY
HD PowerSmoke
™
is designed to be used in conjunction with the supplied Power INTAKE
™
Adapters, or
threaded sensor port adapters, also provided is a cooling system adapter to test the intake, exhaust, and
cooling systems of boosted engines.
DO NOT USE IN EVAP SYSTEM
HD PowerSmoke
™
utilizes higher test pressure that may damage components in evaporative emission
systems. Redline Detection manufactures OEM approved EVAP leak detectors such as, Smoke Pro
®
Total-Tech
®
[95-0003/B] and Smoke Pro Air Complete
™
[95-0051] which are specifically designed for EVAP
system and general repair diagnostics.
SAFETY TIPS
• All diagnostic work should be performed with the engine off
• For use only by professional technicians
• Ensure that the vehicle is secure and stable
• Exercise caution when connecting and disconnecting compressed shop air supply
• Do not leave a vehicle unattended while equipment is operating
• Always wear proper safety protection
• This safety guide is not intended to take the place of common sense and good judgment
Power INTAKE
™
Adapters Safety:
• The maximum test pressure a Power INTAKE
™
Adapters may restrain can only be estimated.
• Slippage of a Power INTAKE
™
Adapters is influenced by many factors including debris / residue in the
Intake / Exhaust system, coefficient of friction, internal pressure of the Power INTAKE
™
Adapters, and
the accuracy of inflation instruments.
• Generally, a Power INTAKE
™
Adapters properly inserted into an Intake / Exhaust system may begin
slipping when test pressure exceeds 50% of the internal inflation pressure. Inflation pressure and back
pressure limitations are subject to temperature / humidity change.
• Power INTAKE
™
Adapters should NEVER be inflated over 1.6 times its outside diameter.
• Debris, protrusions and residue in the Intake / Exhaust system could weaken and / or rupture the bladder
of the Power INTAKE
™
Adapters. Bladder failures due to misuse or abuse are not covered by warranty.
Redline Detection shall not be responsible for any incidental or consequential damages.
• Power INTAKE
™
Adapters must be mechanically anchored with the provided chain / cable to a secure
anchor before use.
• Power INTAKE
™
Adapters slippage under test pressures may cause property damage or injury.
• NEVER use inflation pressure with Power INTAKE
™
Adapters or a test pressure that is greater than the
capacity of the weakest component in the system under test.
• NEVER use Power INTAKE
™
Adapters when its failure could cause injury or catastrophic damage.
• Before use: Refer to Power INTAKE
™
Adapters Installation and Inflation procedures, back pressure
limitations and tether restraint installation instructions.
