Empty Used Tank
The EMPTY USED function is used to empty used transmission fluid into a bulk waste fluid storage
tank for proper disposal. Depressing the EMPTY USED button on the control panel starts the process
and the flow can be controlled with the manual ball valve at the end of the yellow hose. The internal
pump is equipped with an internal pressure switch that shuts off the pump should blockage or “dead-
heading” occur.
The USED TANK level sensor will end the process automatically when tank level nears zero in tank.
Also, depressing the STOP button on control panel will stop the process.
