— obtainable from the American National Standards Institute, 1430 Broadway, New York, NY 10018
The following safety alert symbols identify important safety messages in this manual. When you see one of the symbols shown here, be alert to the possibility of personal injury and carefully read the message that follows.
WARNING
Read these instructions completely before using the T-TECH and save them for future reference. Before using the T-TECH, read these instructions and the instruction manual/safety information provided by the car, truck, boat or equipment manufacturer. Following all manufacturers’ instructions and safety procedures will reduce the risk of accident.
All lead-acid batteries (car, truck and boat) produce hydrogen gas which may violently explode in the presence of fire or sparks. Do not smoke, use matches or a cigarette lighter while near batteries. Do not handle the battery while wearing vinyl clothing because static electricity sparks are generated when vinyl clothing is rubbed. Review all cautionary material on the T-TECH and in the engine compartment.
Always wear eye protection, appropriate protective clothing and other safety equipment when working near lead-acid batteries. Do not touch eyes while working on or around lead-acid batteries.
Use extreme care while working within the engine compartment, because moving parts may cause severe injury. Read and follow all safety instructions published in the vehicle's Owner's Manual.
WARNING – MOTION HAZARDS
Engine parts that are in motion can cause serious injury or death. When working near moving engine parts, wear snug fit clothing and keep hands, fingers and hair away from moving parts. Keep hoses and tools clear of moving parts. Hoses and tools can be thrown through the air if not kept clear of moving engine parts. Never wear loose fitting clothing or allow long hair to be exposed to the engine compartment.
The unexpected movement of a vehicle can cause serious injury or death. When working on a vehicle, always set the parking brake or block the wheels of the vehicle being serviced.

WARNING – FLUIDS UNDER PRESSURE
Hot transmission fluid, under pressure, can injure the eyes. Always wear eye protection (safety glasses) when opening transmission lines to protect the eyes against hot fluids being forcefully sprayed into them. Ordinary glasses do not have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses. Always clean up transmission fluid spills immediately. Transmission fluid is very slippery when spilled.
WARNING – HEAT HAZARDS
Vehicle transmissions can be very hot and the fluid is under pressure when the vehicle is running. Opening a hot, pressurized transmission line can cause hot transmission fluid to be forcibly sprayed in all directions. Wait until the engine has cooled in the vehicle being serviced before removing a system line or in any way opening the vehicle transmission system when the system is hot and under pressure.
Many component parts, in a vehicle that has been running, are hot and can cause serious skin burns. Take care to not touch hot components. Wait until the vehicle has cooled before attempting to service.
WARNING – POISONOUS FLUID HAZARDS
This fluid exchanger is intended for transmission fluid only. Transmission fluid is poisonous if ingested. Ingesting transmission fluid can cause serious illness. Keep transmission fluid where children and pets cannot get to it. If some transmission fluid should be accidentally swallowed, take the person or pet in for medical assistance immediately. Be sure to identify to the doctor specifically what it was that was ingested. If medical assistance is not immediately available, call the local poison center. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If skin contact is made, flush affected area with water and wash immediately. For eye contact, flush with water and apply a suitable eye wash. If irritation persists, contact a physician.
WARNING – FUME HAZARDS
FUMES, GASSES, AND VAPORS CAN CAUSE DISCOMFORT, ILLNESS, AND DEATH!
Breathing vehicle exhaust emissions can cause sickness, injury, or death. Always work in a properly ventilated area when servicing a vehicle with the engine running. Never run an engine without proper ventilation for its exhaust.
Stop the exchange process if you develop momentary eye, nose, or throat irritation. Eye, nose, or throat irritation indicates inadequate ventilation. Stop work and take necessary steps to improve ventilation in the work area.
WARNING – EXPLOSION HAZARDS
A BATTERY EXPLOSION CAN INJURE, AND CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE! A spark near a battery can cause an explosion. To reduce the risk of a spark near a battery, make the positive connection to the battery first then the negative connection to the vehicle chassis, at a point away from the battery.
WARNING – TIP OVER HAZARDS
!
Do not tip or rock the T-TECH. Such actions could result in serious injury or property damage. Always lock the wheels when stationary to avoid unintentional movement of the T-TECH.
WARNING: This product contains chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

INTRODUCTION
About This Manual
This manual includes a Safety Summary, Operating Procedures, Machine Preparation, Maintenance Instructions and
Troubleshooting Procedures for transmission fluid exchanging. Anyone intending to use this machine should become familiar with all the information included in this manual (especially the Safety Summary) before attempting to use the Transmission Fluid Exchanger. In order to properly perform a complete transmission fluid exchange, follow all procedures in the order presented. Please take the time to study this manual before operating the machine. Then keep this manual close at hand for future reference.
The T-TECH Process
Heat is the enemy of transmission fluid. Transmission fluid is a combination of light base oils with an extensive additive package to control foaming, slip, lubrication, etc. Heat attacks the additive package and oxidizes or burns it away, leaving you with only the base oils.
In order to slow the oxidation of the additive package, the vehicle manufacturers have designed an oil cooler, usually in the radiator, that passes all of the transmission fluid through it.
T-TECH uses a patented process of harnessing the pump in the vehicle’s transmission to control the flow of fluid. This process captures the fluid coming out of the transmission and automatically directs it into the bottom of the T-TECH cylinder. The used ATF flowing into the bottom of the cylinder pushes against the separating piston and directs new fluid out the top of the cylinder and back into the vehicle.
The patented T-TECH system makes it IMPOSSIBLE TO HARM A VEHICLE’S TRANSMISSION. The T-TECH process operates exclusively on the transmission pump pressure, which essentially eliminates the possibility of over-pressure, under-pressure, overfill or underfill.
T-TECH Fluid Exchange is the preferred method of automatic transmission service because it is designed to offer the safest and most complete exchange of fluid in the transmission, torque converter, lines and cooler.
The need for a safe and thorough exchange of used ATF has increased as the life expectancy of vehicles increases, the demands placed on these vehicles grows and the cost of repair rises. Today, nearly every vehicle has an OEMrecommended service for automatic transmissions.
The original pan drop method of service only captured 30% - 40% of the vehicle’s used ATF. Other mechanical exchange machines force fluid into the vehicle under pressure and can damage the seals inside a transmission.

PREPARATION FOR USE
Although minimal, T-TECH requires some preparation before use. The following instructions describe the necessary steps to prepare your new transmission fluid exchanger for use.
Fitting Organization
Locate the standard fittings assortment and set each fitting in the T-TECH cabinet storage position identified by the picture mounted on the backside of the cabinet cover. The standard fittings have a specific storage location inside the T-TECH cabinet. Most of the fittings are numerically referenced and have a color-coded band for easy identification.
Throughout each of the operating functions performed using the T-TECH, various adapters, fittings, or attachments will require installation in order to service a specific vehicle. This is not considered part of initial preparation for use. In each case, the setup and connection requirements for a specific task will be added, where necessary, as part of the procedure for that task.
Standard Fittings Assortment Descriptions

Optional accessories on TT100 must be ordered separately. The special fittings shown in Figure 18 through Figure 34 are stored in small plastic cases (Figure 18) in trays 1 and 2, inside the T-TECH cabinet (Figure 15).
CAUTION: Each of the special fittings kits displayed here is a unique matched set of fittings intended for special use. Always keep the fittings in each kit together. When the fittings in these kits become mismatched, it is possible to damage the fittings or the vehicle.

Removing Air From the Cylinder
When using the T-TECH for the first time, there may be space at the top of the cylinder (air in the cylinder). If not corrected, this condition may short future exchanges. If for some reason the piston is at the bottom of the cylinder, or there is large air pocket above the piston, the piston can be moved to the top of the cylinder by the following method.
1. Set CONTROL VALVE to SERVICE VEHICLE.
2. Attach a service hose adapter to one of the service transfer hoses.
3.Insert an air nozzle into the end of the service hose adapter.
4.Control the air line at 10 psi (138 kPa) or less and begin filling the bottom of the cylinder with air.
