Introduction
Congratulations on your selection of the Diff-Vac 1000 Service Unit.
By choosing this product, you are acquiring a simple and trouble free method for performing uid system
evacuation and rell services.
The Diff-Vac 1000 is designed to service most automotive applications by exchanging most of the uid in
engine oil pans, manual transmissions and differentials. Connections to the vehicle are achieved with the
supplied adapters.
Once connected, the unit can be safely used to:
• Vacuum out the old uid.
• Rell vehicle with new uid from “clean” tank.
Thank you for choosing MotorVac.
Sincerely,
The MotorVac Team.
