QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
1. How is the clean fluid tank completely emptied in order to change fluid type?
The TransTech 1000 clean tank can be completely emptied. First connect the positive battery cable
to a battery’s positive post. Connect the negative battery cable to the battery’s negative post. Install an
adapter into the service hose. Insert the hose with adapter into a suitable container to capture the fluid
from the clean tank. Turn on the FILL button. When the fluid level gets below the zero tank level tip
the unit back until the service hose is discharging air. Turn off FILL. Refill and prime the unit as
instructed in “Before you begin”.
2. The TransTech 1000 seems to take longer to perform a service than when it was new.
If it appears that a service now takes longer, inspect the clean tank filter screen for debris. Refer to the
unit’s Filter Inspection on page ___.
3. What should I do when the machine will not perform a service?
First refer to the Trouble Shooting section on page 6-1. If you are still unable to correct the
problem call MotorVac Technical Support at 1-800-841-8810 for assistance.
4. On what vehicles can the TransTech 1000 be used?
Any vehicle which has a dipstick tube and uses automatic transmission fluid.
5. Does the TransTech 1000 generate pressure that could damage a vehicle in any way?
The Evacuate and Fill procedures are completed with the vehicle engine OFF. If careful control of
the fluid level is observed prior to starting the engine there should never be any vehicle damage.
