is illuminated.
2. Slowly add Flush Solution as recommended by the supplier into the vehicle through the
transmission system dip stick port.

procedure.
DRAIN PAN
Note: If transmission filter is to be replaced, perform the following procedure before
removing the transmission pan. If not, skip to the next procedure.
1. Vehicle engine is running and the ATX-2 is connected as previously described, READY light
is illuminated.
2. Press the DRAIN PAN button on the keypad.
3. Buzzer will sound once and DRAIN PAN light will stay illuminated. If an error occurs the
buzzer will sound three times and the ATX-2 will not proceed with the procedure, check all
connections.
4. Vehicle transmission pump will empty contents of transmission system into the ATX-2 used
fluid tank. Liquid level can be viewed through the Used Fluid Level Indicator on the left side of
the ATX-2.
5. When vehicle pan is emptied of transmission fluid the ATX-2 will automatically switch to the
circulate mode, the buzzer will sound continuously and the PROCESS COMPLETE light will
stay illuminated until the STOP button is pressed.
6. Turn the vehicle off IMMEDIATELY after ATX-2 buzzer sounds. The vehicle is now ready to
have the transmission pan removed.
7. After the pan is replaced, refill the pan using the +1/2 Quart button (refer to the +1/2 QUART
section). Check the transmission dip stick periodically while refilling to reach proper level.
Note: If the ATX will not add +1/2 quart, there may not be enough fluid remaining in the
transmission to satisfy the minimum pressure requirement. To correct this
situation, stop engine. Press Empty New Fluid and manually monitor the level of
fluid in the new fluid tank. Press the Stop button after two quarts have been
added to the transmission. Restart vehicle and verify the Ready LED is
illuminated. Check fluid level in the transmission. The +1/2 Quart and -1/2 Quart
procedures can be used to adjust the level.
Caution: Do not let the engine run for more than one minute after the ATX-2 buzzer
sounds. Letting the transmission run with an empty pan for an extended amount
of time can cause serious damage to the transmission system.
