MANUAL FLUID EXTRACTOR
EXTRACTING TRANSMISSION FLUID THROUGH THE DIPSTICK TUBE
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.
5. Connect the main suction tube to the dipstick tube.
6. 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.
7. Extract the used transmission fluid 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 transmission pan.
8. 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.
NOTE
If no vacuum can be created after emptying the Reservoir, the user may need to remove the Red Vacuum
Release Plug below the Pump Handle and reinstall it. This will release vacuum inside the Pump and restore
operation.
EXTRACTING COOLANT FROM A RADIATOR OR EXPANSION TANK
Never remove the cap from the radiator or expansion tank while the engine is at operating
temperature. Always allow the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap or expansion
tank cap. The cooling system is under pressure. Failure to allow the engine to cool before
attempting to remove the cap could result in serious injuries.
1. Properly park the vehicle on level ground and turn the engine off.
2. Allow engine to cool completely. Caution: Do not attempt to extract fluids at temperatures greater than 175°
Fahrenheit (80° Celsius).
3. Remove the radiator or expansion tank cap.
4. Insert the suction tube into the radiator or expansion tank until it reaches the bottom.
5. Connect the main suction tube to the suction tube.
6. Insert the O-Ringed adapter into the pour spout on the top of the reservoir. Ensure the tube connections are
tight to prevent leak.
7. Extract the used coolant by pumping the evacuator handle several times to create a vacuum. Once the
coolant begins to flow into the reservoir, continue to operate the pump until all the coolant has been drained
from the radiator or expansion tank.
