IMPORTANT: Dispose of the waste ATF in
accordance with all applicable federal, state
and local requirements.
1. If draining from the bottom of the waste
vessel, rst remove the drain tting cap plug
by turning the cap plug counterclockwise
while supporting the hexagonal drain tting.
Note: Be sure to support the hexagonal drain
tting while removing the cap plug to prevent
potential damage to equipment. See Figure
1.
2. Locate the drain support bracket and screws
from the accessory kit. Place the drain sup-
port bracket underneath the plastic lip of the
left side base of the TransFlow machine (or
towards front of TransFlow). The drain sup-
port bracket should be at against the inside
plastic lip and the hole in the drain support
bracket should be clearly below the plastic.
Set-up Instructions contd.
Figure 5
Waste Vessel Drain Set Up
Before TransFlow is used, it is recommended to
consider a draining strategy for the waste ATF
that will be stored in the waste vessel on the
side of TransFlow. The waste vessel may be
drained through a tting at the bottom or by
removing the waste vessel cap at the top of the
vessel to use an oil transfer pump to evacuate the
oil. This section describes a procedure to outt
the drain tting at the bottom of the waste vessel
with a standard 1/2" pipe to make it more
convenient for you to adapt to. It is your respon-
sibility to either cap this 1/2" pipe once installed,
or to adapt a tting or hose to it to allow you to
drain the waste vessel.
Figure 1
The waste and supply hoses can be stored on
these brackets when not in use. See Figure 5.

3. Use a pencil to trace the drain support brack-
et’s position at the three indicated locations.
You should have two horizontal lines drawn
on the bracket and one vertical line drawn on
the plastic base to indicate the vertical and
horizontal location of the bracket. See Fig-
ure 2.
4. Bring the drain support bracket out from un-
derneath the plastic lip of the plastic Trans-
Flow base. Place the drain support bracket on
the outside of the plastic base so the horizon-
tal lines drawn on the bracket are in line with
the bottom of the plastic TransFlow base.
The right edge of the drain support bracket
should line up with the vertical line that was
drawn on the plastic base.
5. Mark the two points on the plastic base
where the holes for the fasteners will be
drilled so the drain support bracket can be
secured to the plastic TransFlow base. See
Figure 3.
Figure 2
Figure 3
Figure 4
6. Drill the two holes (approximately 3/16"
diameter) in the plastic base. The hole shall
be drilled completely through the plastic lip
of the plastic base. See Figure 4.
7. Place the drain support bracket behind the
plastic lip of the base and line up the holes
in the bracket with the holes in the base. See
Figure 5.

Waste Oil Removal
Dispose of the waste ATF in accordance with all
applicable federal, state, and local requirements.
You may use one of two methods to drain the
waste oil from the waste oil vessel. The rst
method is to allow the waste oil to gravity drain,
and the second is to use a pump (not supplied) to
pump the waste oil out of the waste oil vessel.
1. Draining the waste vessel can be done by
using gravitiy or by using a pump.
• If using gravity, refer to Waste Vessel
Drain Set Up on page 6.
• If using a pump, remove the waste vessel
cap at the top of the vessel to use an oil
transfer pump to evacuate the waste ATF.
See Figure 1.
2. Wipe down the TransFlow unit with a cloth
to remove any ATF or other substances.
3. Store the TransFlow machine in an upright
position.
Figure 1
Flow Test/Flush Operation contd.
Note:
• If power is interrupted prior to the record-
ing of the seven-character code, the code
will be lost and the ow rate test will need
to be repeated. Go to step 15.
• The ow test must run for a minimum of
8 –10 seconds and be above 0.5 gpm for a
code to be generated.
19. Turn the main function switch to IDLE and
allow supply vessel pressure to dissipate.
20. Turn the main power switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
21. Disconnect the supply and waste hoses and
the 12-volt power source from the vehicle.
Disconnect the air supply hose from the
TransFlow unit.
Note: A small amount of water may drain
from the bottom of the unit when the air sup-
ply is disconnected. This is a normal opera-
tion of the built-in water separator.
22. Drain the waste oil vessel. Refer to the Waste
Oil Removal procedure, which follows.
Note: Wipe down the TransFlow unit with a
cloth to remove any ATF or other substances.

Useful Information/Helpful Hints
1. If there is a question regarding the transmission oil
cooler (T.O.C.) ow direction of a specic vehicle
application, please be sure to review General Motors
Service Bulletin #02-07-30-052.
2. The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) in the
supply vessel of TransFlow must be greater than 65
degrees Fahrenheit in order for TransFlow to operate.
During the colder winter months you may want to
consider some of these suggestions to keep the ATF
at 65 degrees F or higher:
• Fill the TransFlow’s supply vessel with ATF at
the end of the day and store the machine in the
tool crib, parts department or somewhere in the
dealership where room temperature is maintained
throughout the evening.
• Consider storing a quantity of the ATF in a
location where room temperature is maintained
throughout the evening.
3. A typical ow test and ush operation on a vehicle
uses about 2 gallons (8 quarts) of ATF. If the Trans-
Flow supply vessel is lled to its 32 quart capacity,
you will be able to ow test and ush 4 vehicles per
each full supply vessel.
4. It is recommended to get in the habit of monitoring
the level of waste ATF in the waste vessel to make
sure it does not overll. If it makes sense, it would be
recommended to drain the waste vessel at the end of
the day if the ATF level is around 3/4 full. This will
reduce your chances of overlling the waste vessel
the next day.
5. Build up a few of the T.O.C. line and TransFlow
adapter assemblies ahead of time. This will save
you setup time. The three most common T.O.C. line
adapters are the J-35944-200, the J-35944-91 and
J-35944-440.
6. If the TransFlow’s ATF ll port lls slowly or will
not accept the ATF, remove the screen in the ll port
and inspect it for debris. If no restriction is found and
the ll port will still not accept ATF, contact Bosch
Automotive Service Solutions at 1-800-345-2233 for
technical support and service parts ordering.
7. If TransFlow will not roll or cannot be pushed,
please make sure the front casters are unlocked.
8. If the TransFlow fails a cooler during the ow test,
disconnect from the cooler lines and run the Trans-
Flow self-test procedure to verify ow is 2.0 gpm
or greater. If you are having difculty obtaining the
90 psi of shop air required to run TransFlow, please
consider these suggestions:
• Connect an accurate pressure gauge between
the TransFlow air inlet and the shop to ver-
ify the pressure going into TransFlow from
the shop air supply is at least 90 psi and there
are no obstructions in the shop line.
• Connect TransFlow to an air line that is
closer to the service compressor.
• Check service compressor’s pressure.
• Connect to the body shop air line, which may be
at a higher pressure.
• Contact compressor supplier for support.
9. To adjust TransFlow internal pressure regulator:
1. Open the rear swinging door.
2. Remove (3) T-30 Torx head screws inside the
rear door.
3. Remove (2) T-30 Torx head screws from the
front right.
4. Lift up on the front cover to remove it from the
bottom of the cart, tip the bottom outward and
lower the cover to completely remove it.
5. Reach through the right front of the machine to
access the pressure regulator
6. Pull up the regulator knob and turn it counter-
clockwise to increase to pressure.
7. Push knob back down to lock it in position
8. During reassembly, be sure to position the front
panel up under the hood.
9. Reinstall the (5) Torx screws.
If this procedure does not increase self-test ow rate
to minimum of 2.0 gpm, contact Bosch Automotive
Service Solutions at 1-800-345-2233 for technical
support and service parts ordering.
