Calibration - A Good Practice
The ATX-2 is the most accurate of all transmission fluid
exchange equipment due to the advanced load cell technology
designed into the unit.
Most operating problems are usually fixed by performing a
simple calibration procedure.
A good practice is to periodically calibrate the ATX-2 to
ensure optimum performance.
The following pages describe the reasons for calibration and
the actual calibration procedure.
Precision calibration weight(s) are included with the ATX-2.
MAINTENANCE
The ATX-2 will provide many years of reliable service if properly maintained. The following checklist will
ensure that the ATX-2 will run at peak efficiency and present an image to your customers that your
shop performs high tech transmission services.
1. Use tool tray for storage of tools and adapters only.
2. Keep the exterior surface clean. Use a mild all purpose cleaner to wipe transmission fluid and
dirt off the cabinet.
3. Do not allow the unit to sit outside in direct sunlight or inclement weather. Excessive exposure
to sunlight or moisture will cause serious damage and will void the warranty.
4. The ATX-2 is not intended for mobile use where the unit is transported to customer sites.
Excessive vibration will shorten component life, affect accuracy of performance and void the
warranty. If the ATX-2 needs to be transported by vehicle, remove all fluid, in both the new and
used tanks, prior to transport.
5. Be gentle when moving the ATX-2 around the shop. Tip the unit and ease the front casters over
any obstacles such as door jams, air hoses and floor irregularities.
6. Periodically check all internal (by lifting out the tool tray) and external hoses for leaks or
excessive wear. Any weak hoses should be replaced immediately to avoid possible injury.
7. Check the four filter screens (Item 4 and 6 on Page 15) often to avoid any blockage that may
occur. Clean out debris or replace the filter screen if necessary.
8. Check air pressure in rear tires periodically (should be 30 psi), add air if needed.
