PrinCiPle of oPeration
This equipment is designed and intended for use
as an accessory to dispense or evacuate fluids
using a Mityvac hand pressure/vacuum pump
(sold separately). The hand pump is utilized to
build pressure or vacuum in the fluid transfer
bottle. Pressure can be used to dispense fluid
out of the bottle for the purpose of bleeding
hydraulic brake or clutch systems, or for filling
or topping-off various automotive reservoirs.
Vacuum can be used to bleed hydraulic brake or
clutch systems, or to evacuate fluids from vari-
ous automotive reservoirs.
Fluid is added or emptied from the fluid transfer
bottle through the top by removing the threaded
cap. Pressure or vacuum is applied to the bottle
via a hand pump connected to the inlet hose ex-
tending from a nipple near the top of the bottle.
Fluid is dispensed or evacuated through the
fluid hose connected to a nipple extending from
the bottom of the fluid transfer bottle. A fluid
wand is included for connection to the output of
the fluid hose via a quick-change coupler. It can
be used to direct the flow of fluid into a reservoir
or to reach into a reservoir to evacuate fluid out.
The quick-change coupler has an automatic
shut-off valve that will stop fluid flow when the
wand or other accessory is not connected. A
ball valve is installed in the fluid hose to shut-off
or control the flow of fluid to or from the fluid
transfer bottle.
Additional accessories including master cylinder
adapters for pressure bleeding, and ATF adapt-
ers for topping-off sealed transmissions, may be
included or are available for separate purchase,
and will greatly expand the applications of this
equipment.
PreCautions
This equipment is designed for servicing a
variety of vehicles in a safe, convenient manner.
However, differences in vehicle models may
make it impossible to use this equipment as
intended. Do not attempt to force the use of this
equipment on an application for which it is not
designed to perform.
The procedures documented in this manual are
to serve as guidelines for the use of this equip-
ment. In addition to these guidelines, always
follow the manufacturer’s recommended proce-
dures when servicing each unique vehicle.
The use of this equipment is simple and
straightforward if you follow the instructions.
However, always keep in mind that you are
working with a system that may be under
pressure, with fluid that is just waiting to be
expelled. When operating this equipment, use
common sense, and always stop to think before
disconnecting a hose or other component.
This equipment should never be operated above
a safe level of pressure, depending on the
application. When pressurizing the fluid transfer
bottle, always use a hand pump with a pres-
sure gauge installed. When operating the pump,
observe the gauge to ensure the pressure in the
bottle remains at or below the recommended
pressure for the application. Never pressurize the
fluid transfer bottle above 1.4 bar/140 kPa/20 psi.
•
This equipment is intended only for profes-
sional use by personnel trained in perform-
ing the service functions for which it is has
been designed.
•
Read carefully and understand all instruc-
tions prior to using this equipment.
•
Always wear eye protection and proper
clothing when operating this equipment
•
Some fluids, including brake fluid, are cor-
rosive, and proper care should be taken
to protect painted surfaces and skin from
exposure.
•
Do not use this equipment with flammable
liquids, or with fluids at temperatures above
80° Celsius (175° Fahrenheit).
•
Consult and follow the vehicle manufac-
turer’s recommended procedure when
using this equipment to perform automotive
service.
asseMBlY
1. Using one of the finger clamps (4), secure
the 2.5 m (8') long clear inlet hose (3) to the
barb located on the side of the fluid transfer
bottle (5).
2. Install the hose adapter (8) into the other
end of the tube (3) and secure it with a hose
clamp (4).
3. Use a finger clamp (4) to secure the 1.5 m
(5') long hose, valve and quick-change cou-
pler (6) assembly to the barb extending from
the bottom of the fluid transfer bottle (5).
4. Ensure the cap seal (2) is installed in the
cap, and thread the cap w/ chain assembly
(1) onto the top of the fluid transfer bottle.
