Maintenance
The ATX 300 PLUS BOOST will provide many years of reliable service if properly maintained. The following checklist
will ensure that the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST will run at peak efficiency and present an image to your customers that your
shop performs high tech transmission services.
1. Use tool tray for storage of tools and adapters only.
2. Keep the exterior surface clean. Use a mild all purpose cleaner to wipe transmission fluid and dirt off the cabinet.
3. Do not allow the unit to sit outside in direct sunlight or inclement weather. Excessive exposure to sunlight or
moisture will cause serious damage and will void the warranty.
4. The ATX 300 PLUS BOOST is not intended for mobile use where the unit is transported to customer sites. Excessive
vibration will shorten component life, affect accuracy of performance and void the warranty. If the ATX 300 PLUS
BOOST needs to be transported by vehicle, remove all fluid, in both the new and used tanks, prior to transport.
5. Be gentle when moving the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST around the shop. Tip the unit and ease the front casters over any
obstacles such as door jams, air hoses and floor irregularities.
6. Periodically check all internal (by lifting out the tool tray) and external hoses for leaks or excessive wear. Any weak
hoses should be replaced immediately to avoid possible injury.
7. Check the five filter screens (Items 4 and 5 on Page 18) often to avoid any blockage that may occur. Clean out
debris or replace the filter screen if necessary.
8. Check air pressure in rear tires periodically (should be 30 psi), add air if needed.
Calibration — A Good Practice
The ATX 300 PLUS BOOST is the most accurate of all transmission fluid exchange equipment
due to the advanced load cell technology designed into the unit.
Most operating problems are usually fixed by performing a simple calibration procedure.
A good practice is to periodically calibrate the ATX 300 PLUS BOOST to ensure
optimum performance.
The following pages describe the reasons for calibration and the actual calibration procedure.
Troubleshooting
If in Dipstick Mode and the READY light is on and the ATX 300 is unresponsive to a button being pressed to initiate a
process - do the following:
1. Press COOLER MODE
2. Press DRAIN PAN
3. Press STOP after pressure on gauge reaches 0 PSI or after 3 to 4 seconds
The READY light should go off. If not, repeat above steps a second time.
If the new fluid tank is full and Add New Fluid light is flashing while selecting an exchange service, lower the volume of
new transmission fluid to 25 quarts, using Empty New Fluid Feature.
