12 Removing Air From the Cylinder When using the T -TECH for the first time, there may be space at the top of the cylinder (air in the cylinder). If not corrected, this condition may short futur e exchanges.
13 OPERA TION INSTRUCTIONS For first time use, do not perform any of the following procedur es until you have completed the procedur es in Preparation For Use .
Fill Cylinder Function The Fill Cylinder function is used to fill the T -TECH cylinder with new A TF and empty the cylinder of old A TF . CAUTION: Fill cylinder completely . Air below the piston will result in an incomplete exchange as this air will compress and not move the piston at beginning of the exchange pr ocess.
15 Connecting to the V ehicle Connecting to the vehicle for service requir es identifying the automatic transmission cooling lines and making the necessary connections to exchange A TF . Identifying Cooling Lines Figure 40 is a diagram of a typical automobile transmission cooling system.
16 4. Examine the vehicle fittings and compare them to the fitting chart on the back of the T -TECH cabinet door . In this case, a Chevrolet fitting is requir ed and a review of the fitting chart indicates that FIT303 and FIT304 are the corr ect choices (see Figure 44).
17 Fluid Exchange Function Use this function to exchange old automatic transmission fluid (A TF) with new A TF . 1. With the T -TECH auto align feature, you need not be concerned about which service transfer hose is connected to the transmission cooling line or to the radiator because flow direction is contr olled through the T -TECH unit.
18 Bypass Feature The T -TECH bypass feature allows new A TF to loop within the vehicle when the exchange is complete and the piston is at the top of the cylinder . This feature allows the operator to walk away (work on something else, etc.) when the machine is running, without being concerned about service completion.
MAINTENANCE General There is no periodic maintenance necessary on the T -TECH unit. T roubleshooting The following troubleshooting flow charts are provided for solutions to problems that may occur during various operating processes.
