Connect TX600 Power Cord to a properly protected, grounded receptacle. Avoid using an extension
cord. If necessary, use a good condition, UL listed, 3-wire grounded, #14 AWG extension cord of
the shortest possible length.
The TX600 is now ready to recover and recycle refrigerant.
Open valves on high and low Gauge Manifold Hoses.
Open high and low valves on Gauge Manifold.
Open valves on both Yellow Service Hoses.
Open VAPOR Valve on refrigerant cylinder.
Confirm that the Overfill Protection Device is connected.
Push Top of Main Power Switch to turn TX600 ON.
The Main Power Switch and Compressor-On light will illuminate. The Compressor and Condenser
Fan will be heard operating as refrigerant is recovered from the A/C System.
The TX600 will recover refrigerant until a vacuum is sensed. The Compressor will turn off and the
Compressor-On Light will turn off.
! DO NOT TURN THE TX600 OFF OR DISCONNECT HOSES !
A small quantity of Liquid refrigerant will probably remain in the A/C System. This liquid will
vaporize (boil up) and increase pressure in the system as components again warm to ambient
temperature. This can be detected by observing an increasing pressure reading on the Low Side of
the Gauge Manifold.
If pressure increases to a preset level, the TX600 will again start to recover refrigerant. The
Compressor will turn on and the Compressor-On Light will illuminate.
Allow this sequence to repeat until the Compressor-On Light remains off continuously for at least
2 minutes.
