Theory of Operations
Descriptions of the various operations, control buttons, and indicators that make up the control panel are
listed below.
OFF MODE:
• When the unit is connected to power, an alarm will sound indicating power-up, all LED’s will ash on and
off and then the ENGINE START light will be ashing.
• When the vehicle is started, the uid and pressure from the vehicle should have reached the machine
and the ENGINE START light will go steady on and the gauge will indicate the pressure coming in from
the vehicle. It is now ready to begin a service if there is uid in the clean uid tank.
SERVICE MODES:
• Push DRAIN button to perform a drain pan service on vehicle. The unit will automatically route the
used uid from the vehicle’s transmission into the unit’s waste tank until the transmission is empty and
the pressure drops.
Push CHANGE FLUID button to perform a uid exchange. The unit will route the used uid from the
vehicle’s transmission into the unit’s waste tank and supply an equal amount of new uid from the unit’s
clean tank into the transmission. During the service the ENGINE START lights will be on steady. The
DRAIN and FILL lights may go on and off periodically as the unit controls the uid level in the vehicle.
DRAIN MODE at the end of service:
• After service is complete, (COMPLETE light is on), if the transmission level needs to be lowered push
the DRAIN button. Fluid will drain only as long as the button is pressed, ow will stop when the button is
released.
FILL (TOP OFF) MODE at the end of service
• Push FILL button after service is complete (or COMPLETE light is on, see step below). Fluid will ow into
the vehicle’s transmission only as long as button is pushed
LOW CLEAN FLUID LIGHT:
• The light will be on when the clean uid tank is empty down to the zero mark.
COMPLETE LIGHT:
• The COMPLETE light will turn on at end of service. The unit will automatically revert to bypass mode.
ENGINE START LIGHT:
• The light will ash if the engine needs to be started or if uid ow needs increased.
• The light will be on solid when the engine is running indicating good ow from the vehicle.
ENGINE STOP LIGHT:
• The light will ash if the engine needs to be stopped/turned off.
• After the engine is stopped/turned off, the light will be on steady.
EMPTY WASTE LIGHT:
• A ashing empty waste LED after an exchange is complete or before one has began indicates that
there is uid in the waste tank. If the EMPTY WASTE button is pushed at this time the unit will empty
the waste tank to the ‘zero’ line. Note: It is not necessary to empty the Waste Tank before perform-
ing an exchange. If beginning an exchange with uid in the waste tank ensure that there is less uid in
the clean tank than the remaining capacity of the waste tank. Failure to do so will result in Waste Tank
overowing!
STOP SWITCH:
• Will turn off an alarm without stopping the machine when an alarm is sounding during the CHANGE
FLUID mode (when pushed only once).
• Will pause the service and revert the system to bypass mode and hold the uid level memory when
pushed without the alarm sounding. Press the CHANGE FLUID button to resume service.
