MODES of OPERATION
Cooler Line Exchange
**NOTE: VEHICLETRANSMISSION FLUID SHOULD BE AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE PRIOR
TO PERFORMING ANY SERVICE WITH THE ATF1.
**NOTE: THE ON BOARD BATTERY SHOULD BE AT FULL CHARGE FOR MOST EFFICIENT
FLUID EXCHANGE SERVICE, make it a habit to plug the on board battery charger
into a 110 volt service outlet after every 3 to 4 fluid services for efficiency and extended
battery life.
1)
Identify the correct cooler line adapters from the vehicle application chart located in the
operations manual. Properly connect the adapters to the most convenient and accessible cooler
line on the vehicle. The
ATF1requiresjust one cooler line to perform the exchange, it does not
matter which line is selected.
2)
Connect the adapters to the most convenient intermediate hose. Included are one straight and
one ninety-degree intermediate hose. Connect the red new fluid line from the unit to one of the
transmission intermediate hoses. Connect the black used fluid line from the unit to the
remaining intermediate hose of the transmission. It does not matter at this time if the new or
used line is connected to the wrong side of the transmission coolant line as it will be corrected
in step #4.
3)
Connect the ATF1to the vehicle’s 12v battery, making sure to observe all applicable safety
precautions. Should the connection inadvertently be reversed, REVERSE POLARITY light
will be lit, along with a steady audible alarm, until the correct connection is made.
Once correct battery connection is made, turn Main Power switch to the ON position. Alarm
will sound for two seconds, all of the LED’s will momentarily turn on, the POWER and
READY lights will turn on and the NEW and USED readouts will display quantities of
corresponding fluid in each tank. If fluid in the NEW tank is low or the fluid in the USED tank
