INSTRUCTIONS
CREATE A VACUUM
1. Drain the coolant from the radiator.
2. Select a suitable sized rubber bushing and fit it to the lower part of
the tool. Insert the tool into the radiator filler neck. Turn the sealing
collar to make a seal between the tool and the radiator filler neck.
3. Connect the vacuum pump to the quick coupling.
4. Connect the drain hose to the vacuum pump in case there is residual
fluid inside the system.
5. Connect shop air to the vacuum pump.
6. Turn the valve on to create a vacuum in the radiator (Fig. 1).
7. Turn the valve off when the gauge reading falls is between
20 - 24 inHg.
8. Disconnect the shop air from the vacuum pump.
REFILL COOLANT
1. Disconnect the vacuum pump from the quick coupling.
2. Connect the coolant hose to the quick coupling.
3. Put the other end of the coolant hose in a pre-mixed coolant
4. Turn the valve on to transfer the coolant into the cooling system
5. Turn the valve off when the gauge reading is 0 inHg.
6. Remove the tool from the cooling system.
7. Clean the tool prior to storage.
container.
NOTE: Make sure there is enough coolant to fill the cooling system.
