To prevent personal injury and/or damage to the machine, please observe the

following. Read and understand all instructions, cautions and warnings before operating the Hot Flush machine. Do not use the Hot Flush machine for any other purpose than that for which it was designed. Always make sure the Hot Flush machine is on a level surface. Always connect the power cord directly into a grounded 20 amp 110 volt outlet. Always wear protective clothing and gear, including face shield and gloves that meet OSHA standards. Always use automatic transmission fluid as the flushing agent in the Hot Flush machine. Never use solvent, gasoline, kerosine, or any other highly flammable liquid in the Hot Flush machine. Never open the main cabinet door of the Hot Flush machine without unplugging the power cord first. Never alter the Hot Flush machine in any way. Never allow the Hot Flush machine to get wet. Note: New operators must be trained or have read and understood operators manual before using the Hot Flush machine. Note: Air hose is provided as a convenience only, it is not required as part of the flushing process. Note: Cleanliness of the cooler is to be determined by qualified personnel. Note: Machine oil fluid pressure operates at a maximum of 65 P.S.I., qualified personnel must determine the coolers ability to function properly at this pressure. Note: A thorough monthly visual inspection of the hoses will yield any evidence of cover damage, wear, abrasion, blistering, cracking, reinforcement exposure, or other telltale evidence the hose should be removed from service. Note: Replace hoses if they get cut or if they get bent below a 3 inch radius. Shop air must be regulated at the Hot Flush machine to 115-125 psi or damage 3 may occur to the reversing cylinder. Air regulator is not provided.

PLEASE REMOVE OR BYPASS CHECKVALVE BEFORE FLUSHING! SECURE RED & BLUE HOSE TO VEHICLE FRAME BEFORE FLUSHING
The principle to flushing oil coolers is to back flush them. The illustration above shows how this process is achieved. The blue hose (pressure line) is hooked to the return line of the cooler. The red hose (return) is hooked to the input of the cooler line. Select a timer setting and the Hot Flush machine will back flush your cooler using its patented reverse flush technology. This action reverses flow from the blue line to the red line every 3 seconds for a 1/4 second to jog contamination loose. A short burst of air is also injected every 3 min to help insure your cooler gets clean. When your 28 micron screen or the 10 micron prefilter is clean, select the one way mode to check cooler flow. In this mode the hotflush machine switches the flow output from the blue line to the red and simulates normal cooler flow as if the cooler were hooked up to the transmission. If you have any questions please call Hot Flush at 1-800-852-5713 for technical assistance 4

GETTING STARTED
1. Remove the Hot Flush machine from the box. 2. Remove hose package from inside the cabinet. 3. Open top lid & remove cover on right. 4. Grab T-handle & lay bottom cover to side & pour in 16 quarts of ATF or until 3 below inner lid. 5. Replace inner lid cover inside reservoir tank. 6. Replace top cover. 7. Attach hoses to machine, red hose to the turret with the red dot, blue hose to the other left turret. (See figure 2) 8. Note: if there is a check ball in the cooler line, it must be bypassed attach blue hose (this is the primary output line) to the return line from the cooler. (See pages 14, 15 & 16 for return line location) important: if there is a check ball in the cooler line, it must be bypassed!!! 9. Attach the red hose to the other line. 10. Hooking up shop air supply: attach male fitting that matches your quick coupler air hose to 1/4 coupler on right side of machine, (see figure 3) then attach air hose. Always: use an air supply of a minimum of 110 PSI and a max of 120 PSI to operate the machine. (Note: pressure guage reads oil pressure leaving machine, which will be less then air supply pressure) note: machine must have air supplied to it at all times while in use! 11. Make sure main power switch (#1) (see figure 1) is in the off position. 12. Plug power cord directly into 110 volt (20 amp) grounded outlet. Do not use an extention cord! 13. Remove T-nut on 28 micron screen housing (see figure 4) and remove the cap. 14. Make sure 28 micron screen is clean by looking at it against a background of light and tilting back and forth, when you can see light through the screen, it is clean. The dark areas are the accumulation of minute particles. To clean, agitate back and forth

GETTING STARTED: continued

in a solution of dish soap & water. Then blow out the 28 micron screen with an air nozzle till dry from the back side. (The back side is the side that does not have numbers on the center rubber gasket) Replace the 28 micron screen in housing so that the numbers on the center rubber gasket are facing up. Replace the cap and tighten T-nut, so oil does not leak from housing while running! 15. Replace cover and close lid. 16. Optional: to pre-heat the oil, connect the ends of the two 8 hoses to the pre-heat attachment. (See figure 5) turn selector knob (#5) to one way position, turn the pump switch on and run the machine till it reaches preset temperature. Turn pump switch off. Press & hold clean out switch (#3) (figure 1) for 5 to 10 seconds. Disconnect hose from the pre-heat attachment and continue. 17. Select the proper fitting for the vehicle and connect the blue hose to the return line from the cooler and the red hose to the input line of the cooler. Attention: make sure lines are secured to vehicle and separate from each other, as there is a violent jolting action that occurs during the flushing action. 18. Select 15 minute timer operation. (Switch #5) (see figure 1) 19. Turn pump on & make note of flow rate on the flowmeter (#11) (see figure 1) so you can monitor progress of flow rate. Stop flushing after 15 minutes because screen may fill up quickly! 20. Note the following statements, then continue with step 23 under normal operating conditions. 21. Attention: pump may shut off if screen becomes filled with excessive debris. Though this is designed to protect the screen, it should not be relied upon as an auto shut off. If screen becomes damaged, it must be replaced. To order more call 1-800-852-5713. debris, turn off main power switch (#1), tap the clean out button (#3) (figure 1) 6 times to purge oil from filter housing. Do not hold down , continue with step #24 23. Press & hold clean out switch (#3) (figure 1) for about 5 to 10 seconds. 24. Remove T-nut from 28 micron screen housing and remove cap. 25. Remove 28 micron screen. 26. Examine screen for debris, if debris is present, clean per instructions in step 14. Replace & continue to flush. 27. Inspect and clean the screen every 15 to 30 minutes, you must be able to flush for at least 15 minutes and have the screen remain clean in order to be assured that the cooler is clean! 28. Also, remember to replace the secondary tank filter in your Hot Flush after 30 flushes or 20 hours. This reservoir filter is a top quality OEM spec filter that cleans the oil to 10 microns, reducing wear to the reversing valve & pump. The oil remains cleaner and lasts twice as long. To order more call 1-800-852-5713.

MAINTENANCE
Sonically clean 28 micron screen every 100 flushes Replace 28 micron screen at least once a year Change the ATF in the reservoir after 50 to 60 flushes or 35 to 40 hours of operation Change the reservoir tank filter before 30 flushes or 20 hours of operation maximum. 10 micron reservoir filter may become plugged before this time due to excessive cooler contamination. Before replacing filter, lubricate the o-ring inside the filter, then gentle twist back & forth while pushing down with steady pressure over inlet pipe in bottom of reservoir. DO NOT FORCE!

TO CHANGE OIL
Splice the ends of the blue and the red 8 hoses together either at the pre-heat attachment or leave both lines hooked up to a cooler. Locate drain hose and open the valve at the end. Drain oil into your waste oil container. Turn on the pump switch while holding the drain hose in the waste oil container. When fluid stops, turn off the pump switch and close the valve on the drain hose. Refill with 16 quarts of ATF.
