OPERATION
CAUTION
1. This equipment is intended only for professional use by personnel
trained in performing the service functions for which it is designed.
2. This equipment is designed for servicing a variety of vehicles in a
safe, convenient manner. However, differences in vehicle makes
and models could make it impossible to use this equipment as it is
intended. DO NOT attempt to force the use of this equipment on an
application for which it is not designed to perform.
3. The procedures documented in this manual are to serve as
guidelines for the use of this equipment.
4. In addition to these guidelines, always follow the manufacturer’s
recommended procedures when servicing each unique vehicle.
5. The use of this equipment is simple and straightforward if you
follow the instructions. However, always keep in mind that you are
working with a system that may be under pressure, with fluid that
is just waiting to be expelled. When operating this equipment, use
common sense and always stop to think before disconnecting a
hose or other component.
WARNING: DO NOT use this equipment with gasoline or other
flammable liquids or with fluids at temperatures above 175° Fahrenheit
(80° Celsius). Keep away from open flames or excessive heat.
EXTRACTING MOTOR OIL THROUGH
THE DIPSTICK TUBE
1. Park vehicle on level ground. Ensure the transmission of the vehicle
is in “neutral” or “park” position and apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine. Allow the engine to idle until it has reached
normal operating temperature. Turn the engine off.
3. Insert the appropriate diameter dipstick tube into the dipstick fill
hole until it reaches the bottom of the oil pan.
NOTE: DO NOT bend the suction tube during the inserting
procedure.
4. Connect the main suction tube to the dipstick tube.
5. Insert the O-Ringed plug of the main suction tube into the reservoir
adapter and then insert the adapter into the top of the reservoir.
Ensure the tube connections are tight to prevent leakage.
6. Extract the used motor oil by pumping the evacuator handle several
times to create a vacuum. Once the fluid begins to flow into the
reservoir, continue to operate the pump until all the fluid has been
drained from the engine crankcase.
NOTE: When oil in the tank reaches the maximum level, the vacuum
will release to prevent overflowing.
7. Remove the main suction hose from the reservoir adapter; pour the
used transmission fluid from the reservoir into a suitable container,
then dispose of the fluid in an appropriate manner.
EXTRACTING TRANSMISSION FLUID
THROUGH THE DIPSTICK TUBE
WARNING: In some applications, this may require jacking or lifting
the vehicle. Use appropriate safety stands to avoid serious or fatal injury.
1. Operate the vehicle to warm the transmission fluid to a normal
operating temperature.
CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to extract fluids at temperatures
greater than 175° Fahrenheit (80° Celsius).
2. Properly park the vehicle on level ground and turn the engine off.
3. Remove the transmission fluid dipstick.
4. Insert the dipstick tube into the dipstick fill hole until it reaches the
bottom of the transmission pan.
