SET UP

The MCX-2S was carefully packaged by RTI to
arrive without damage. Report any evidence of
damage immediately by calling RTI Technical
Support at 800-468-2321.

Mon. - Fri. 8AM - 5PM (Eastern Time)

Sat. - Sun. 8AM - 12PM (Eastern Time)

Following are the steps required to prepare the
MCX-2S for operation:

1.

Remove all packing materials. Press sides of buckle
to release black web strap on rear of unit. Remove
the tanks and the accessory cartons from their
shipping position. There are three small New Coolant
Tanks and one large Waste Coolant Tank.

2.

Press down on the levers on the front casters to lock
them. This will keep the MCX-2S from moving as
tanks are installed and connected.

3.

Labels are provided to attach to the new coolant tanks
to identify the type of coolant. Peel off the protective
backing cover and place the appropriate label on the
narrow side of the new coolant tank. Attach the label
on the side closest to the brass hose connection
fitting and large fill cap.

4.

Unscrew the large cap and fill one of the New Coolant
Tanks with coolant and water. Refer to the
specifications of the coolant manufacturer for the
correct proportions of water and coolant. Replace the
cap.

5.

Pull the Tank Plug out of the port in the large cap. A
strap keeps the plug handy for use when carrying the
tank to other areas to avoid splashing.

6.

Set the New Coolant Tank into the right side of the
MCX-2S on the shelf above the Battery. The brass
hose connection fitting should be closest to the rear
of the MCX-2S. The coolant type label should be
visible as shown above when the tank is positioned
correctly.

7.

Connect the Green Hose to the brass quick connect
fitting on the New Coolant Tank. A sleeve on the
hose fitting can be slid away from the end of the fitting
to make connection and disconnection easy.

8.

Set the Waste Coolant Tank into the left side of the
MCX-2S. The Hose connection fitting should be
closest to the front of the MCX-2S.

9.

Connect the Black Hose to the quick connect fitting on
the Waste Tank. A sleeve on the fitting can be slid
away from the end of the fitting to make connection
and disconnection easy.

10. Pull the Tank Plug out of the port in the large cap on

the Waste Tank. A strap keeps the plug handy for use
when carrying the tank to other areas to avoid
splashing.

11. Insert the small diameter Black Tube into the hole in

the large cap on the Waste Coolant Tank. This tube
hangs above the Waste Tank. Do not pull on the
hose. Do not confuse this tube with the Radiator
Pressure Relief Hose on the upper right corner of the
MCX-2S.

12. Press sides of buckle on strap and insert mating end

of buckle to secure the tanks in place.

13. Lay the green and black hoses over the hose storage

bracket on the rear of the MCX-2S. Wrap the Radiator
Pressure Relief Hose on the bracket on the right side
of the rear of the MCX-2S.

14. Install 12 volt battery (not supplied with unit) in lower

right compartment. Set all selector switches to OFF.
Connect cable using supplied hardware. Connect
black terminal to negative (-) battery post and red
terminal to positive (+) battery post.

15. Release the locks on the front casters by lifting up on

the levers.

16. Refer to Page 2 and check that all accessory parts

were received. The accessory parts are packed in
cartons included with the MCX-2S.
