of your Banks Six-Gun Diesel

Thank you.
The Banks Six-Gun Diesel Tuner has six
power levels adjustable by the supplied
Six-Gun switch or the optional Banks
PowerPDA.
The optional Banks PowerPDA is a
versatile touch-screen interface to the
Six-Gun tuner and your truck that also
increases the Six-Gun’s power output.
With the push of a button, you can
change power levels on-the-fly just one
of the numerous Six-Gun parameters
Banks PowerPDA lets you custom-tune.
It displays four engine functions at a
time, two of which are user-selectable
(over a dozen to choose from). It will
clock your 0-60 mph,
1
⁄
8
-mile and
1
⁄
4
-
mile performance runs, recording peak
boost and EGT values. Performance
runs are automatically stored for later
retrieval with a time-and-date stamp.
With the Banks PowerPDA, you can also
scan and clear OBD II diagnostic codes.
It gives you the endless functionality of
a Palm
®
Tungsten
™
E2 PDA, and fits in a
custom dash-mounted docking station
using infrared wireless connectivity.
The Six-Gun Diesel Tuner comes with a
Six-Gun switch that has six selectable
power levels. The Six-Gun switch is
included in the Six-Gun Diesel Tuner.
Level 1 is stock. Each additional higher
level adds approximately 20% of the
available power increase.
To prevent damage to the factory
transmission, Banks recommends
that both automatic and manual
transmission vehicles do not exceed
Level 4 while the vehicle is experiencing
load (towing, climbing a steep grade,
carrying a load, etc.).
To use the higher levels of the Six-Gun
Diesel Tuner while towing or climbing,
airflow improvements must be made
to lower the exhaust gas temperature
(EGT) entering the turbo. The EGT should
not exceed 1400º F for more than a few
seconds. Elevated EGT can damage the
turbocharger and the engine.
ATTENTION! Before proceeding with
these instructions, please carefully
read the DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
and LIMITATION OF WARRANTY
statement located on page 2 of this
manual.
WARNING: The PDA may be
susceptible to damage as a result
of extended exposure to sunlight,
heat or extreme cold. It is highly
recommended that the PDA
be removed from its mounting
location if the vehicle will be
subjected to high concentrations
of sunlight, heat or cold for
an extended period of time.
