NOTE
Some transmission pumps may have a flow rate so low that the ATX will briefly
pause (or even stop) during the exchange process. A series of two long beeps
will indicate this condition. Accelerating the engine will usually overcome this
situation and decrease the overall time required for the exchange process.
FLUID EXCHANGE (4,8,12,16,20 QUARTS)
1.
Vehicle engine is running and the ATX-2 is connected as previously described, READY light is
illuminated.
2.
Determine vehicle transmission fluid capacity from the vehicle operator or service manual.
3.
Press the corresponding QUART button, always round up (for example if vehicle capacity is 6.5
quarts an 8 quart exchange would be selected).
4.
The change of fluid can be monitored through the ATX-2 Old-New Sight Bowls. These bowls
display the new bright red fluid leaving the ATX-2 and the dirty brown to black fluid coming from
the vehicle transmission system. The color of the used should become almost equal to the new
as the exchange ends. The liquid levels can be viewed through the Level Indicators on either
side of the ATX-2 (left side for used, right side for new).
5.
When the exchange of transmission fluid is complete the ATX-2 will automatically switch to the
bypass loop, the buzzer will sound continuously and the PROCESS COMPLETE light will stay
illuminated until the STOP button is pressed.
6.
Check transmission dip stick for level. Use +1/2, -1/2 QUART buttons as required to correct fluid
level.
