B) Reinitiate Factory Settings -- Immediately after the ELIMINATOR is turned on,
wait for the "BEEP" and then hold down both the "DELAY LEFT' and "DELAY RIGHT"
keys until you see the ELIMINATOR reset itself (lights will start coming down again) --
Then release both keys. This will set all rollouts and presets to original factory settings.
C)When to Send the ELIMINATOR to Portatree for Repair. If your unit does not
power up it will definitely have to come back for repair. Most other problems are related
to improper settings and can be remedied by calling Portatree at 1-508-278-2199 for help.

BATTERY USE AND CHANGING

The batteries WILL NOT be charged by the Wall Transformer that was supplied

with your ELIMINATOR. The batteries are used to power the ELIMINATOR when you
are not using the110 volts A.C. Adapter or a Cigarette Lighter Adapter.
A) To Change Batteries: Remove the back cover of the ELIMINATOR (4 screws).
The Batteries will be located at the bottom and you can use 1 or 2 -- new 9 Volt Alkaline
batteries. Two batteries will last about twice as long as one.
B) Low Batteries: If your ELIMINATOR only displays 4 lights in the LEFT lane
when turned on (2 ambers, green, and red) then you have bad batteries. If the unit resets
(STARTS OVER) after you run a race, then you probably have low batteries. Try the A.C.
Adapter or Cigarette Lighter Adapter supplied with the unit to verify.

HOLD HARMLESS

Portatree is in no way responsible for the safety of any vehicle being tested on a

Portatree Test Track. Usage of Portatree Equipment for testing purposes is solely the
responsibility of the User to take the necessary and proper safety precautions regarding the
use of a racing vehicle.

Portatree does not recommend the use of any ELIMINATOR product for

competition racing applications. Many groups insist on an economy system and select the
ELIMINATOR. We strongly recommend the Portatree Professional Track Computer for
racing applications.
