KEYPAD FUNCTIONS
The ATX-2 is an automatic transmission fluid exchanger featuring state-of-the-art electronic controls
with digital weight scales measuring the automatic transmission fluid coming into and going out of
the machine. Operation of the ATX-2 is intuitive and very easy to master.
Transmission fluid is recovered from vehicle and filtered before collecting in the ATX-2
used fluid tank. The used fluid is pumped by the vehicle transmission pump and when
the procedure is complete, the ATX-2 buzzer will sound continuously until the stop
button is pressed. Refer to page 8 for complete instructions.
Filters and exchanges the used transmission fluid in the vehicle for new from the ATX-
2. The fluid is moved by both the vehicle transmission pump removing the used inside
the vehicle and the ATX-2 pump replacing it with new. The procedure is complete
when the buzzer sounds continuously until the stop button is pressed. Refer to page 9
for complete instructions
Transmission fluid is emptied completely from the new fluid tank inside the ATX-2. It
can be stored in a bulk container for later use. This procedure is performed if a change
in transmission fluid types is required. The ATX-2 buzzer will sound continuously until
the stop button is pushed when procedure is complete. Refer to page 11 for complete
instructions.
