4. Attach the J 35944-A to the undercarriage of the vehicle with the hook provided and connect the flushing system feed supply hose (1) from the J
35944-A to the bottom connector oil cooler return pipe.
5. Turn the J 35944-A water supply valve (3) to the ON position and allow water to flow through the oil cooler and pipes for 10 seconds to remove
any remaining transmission fluid. If water does not flow through the oil cooler and pipes, the cause of the blockage must be diagnosed and the
plugged component must be repaired or replaced. Continue with the cooler flushing and flow check procedure once the blockage is corrected.
6. Turn the J 35944-A water supply valve (3) to the OFF position and clip the discharge hose onto a 19 liter (5 gallon) pail with a lid, to avoid
splashback.
Important: Flushing for approximately 2 minutes in each cooler line direction will result in a total of about 8-10 gallons of waste fluid. This mixture
of water and flushing fluid is to be captured in a bucket or similar container.
7. Turn the J 35944-A water supply valve (3) to the ON position and depress the trigger (1) to mix cooler flushing solution into the water flow. Use
the clip provided on the handle to hold the trigger (1) down. The discharge will foam vigorously when the solution is introduced into the water
stream.
8. Flush the oil cooler and pipes with water and solution for 2 minutes. During this flush, attach the shop air supply 825 kPa (120 psi) to the flushing
system feed air valve (2) located on the J 35944-A, for 3-5 seconds at the end of every 15-20 second interval to create a surging action.
9. Release the trigger (1) and turn the J35944-A water supply valve (3) to the OFF position.
Forward Flush
1. Disconnect both hoses (1 and 2) from the oil cooler pipes and connect them to the opposite oil cooler pipe. This will allow the oil cooler and pipes
to be flushed in the normal flow direction.
2. Repeat Step 6 and 7 of the Back Flush.
