7. Connect red (positive) clamp on power cable to red (positive) terminal on vehicle battery. Connect the black
(negative) clamp to a ground on vehicle frame. All lights on keypad should illuminate for one second and buzzer

8. Press the DIPSTICK MODE button. The light on the button will illuminate.
Warning
Handle battery connection cable with extreme caution. Batteries generate explosive gases during
normal operation. Working in the vicinity of a lead-acid or other automotive battery is dangerous.
Wear eye protection. Never smoke or allow a spark or flame in the vicinity of the battery. Do not
connect the black power clip to the negative post of the battery to avoid a spark.
Drain Pan
1. Light on DIPSTICK MODE button should be illuminated. Press the DRAIN PAN button on the keypad.
2. Buzzer will sound once and DRAIN PAN light will illuminate. If an error occurs the buzzer will sound three times and
the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST will not proceed with the procedure, check all connections.
3. The ATX 300 PLUS BOOST will withdraw used transmission fluid into the used fluid tank. The amount can be
viewed on the used LED readout and on Used Fluid Level Indicator on the left side of the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST.
4. When all possible fluid has been withdrawn, the buzzer will sound continuously.
Note
If transmission filter is to be replaced, perform the following procedure before removing the
transmission pan. If not, skip to the next procedure.
Fluid Exchange (4, 8, 12, 16, 20 Quarts) — Dipstick Mode
1. Determine vehicle transmission fluid capacity from the vehicle operator or service manual.
2. Light on DIPSTICK MODE button should be illuminated. Press the corresponding QUART button, always round up
(for example if vehicle capacity is 6.5 quarts, an 8 quart exchange would be selected).
3. If the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST is unable to remove any fluid from the pan within first 30 seconds FloErr (Flow Error)
message will be displayed and process will be aborted. Check if dipstick tube is inserted properly, to appropriate
depth (see Page 11). Another reason for this message is an insufficient amount of transmission fluid in the vehicle
transmission pan.
