DISCONNECTING
(YELLOW)
To minimize spillage from disconnecting the unit from the vehicle the coolant level
needs to be lowered again using the LOWER LEVEL
(YELLOW)
procedures:
1)
Verify adequate capacity for used fluid in used fluid sight gauge. Refer to
EMPTY USED coolant section to empty used coolant tank.
2)
Verify that all VFX 1 Control panel valves are in the neutral position, (Fig 1)
and flow control valves at hose ends are off.
3)
Turn AIR CONTROL valve (#1), FUNCTION CONTROL valve (#2)
and FLUID CONTROL valve (#3) to the right, LOWER LEVEL
(YELLOW).
Vacuum will begin to build on the compound gauge.
(Fig 2)
4)
Connect vacuum cone with extension tube to BLACK/USED coolant
hose and open BLACK/USED coolant flow control valve at hose end.
5)
Lower coolant level below radiator hose disconnection level. When
vacuum reaches 10inHg, coolant level should be below disconnect
level. (Fig 3)
6)
Close BLACK/USED coolant flow control valve at hose end.
7)
Return all control panel valves to neutral position, (Fig 4) and flow
control valves at hose ends to off.
8)
Step adapters and hose adapters can now be removed and system restored to
original configuration.
TOPPING OFF
1)
Verify all control panel valves are in neutral position.
(Fig 1) Turn both flow control valves at hose end OFF.
2)
Turn AIR CONTROL valve (#1) and FLUID
CONTROL Valve (#3) to the left, TOP OFF
(
GREEN
), FUNCTION CONTROL valve (#2) straight
up, TOP OFF (
GREEN
). (Fig 2)
3)
Connect cone assembly to RED/NEW coolant flow control valve. (Fig 3)
4)
Place vacuum cone into radiator or Remote Reservoir neck. Slowly open
RED/NEW coolant flow control valve, observing coolant fluid level.
(Fig 3)
5)
Close RED/NEW coolant flow control valve when proper coolant level is
reached.
6)
Fill overflow tank to proper level following the procedures described in
steps 4 and 5.
7)
Return all control panel valves to neutral position. (Fig 4)
8)
Replace radiator / remote reservoir, and overflow caps.
