AND MUST BE PHASED CORRECTLY! IMPROPER PHASING WILL CAUSE DAM-
AGE TO THE TSC PUMP AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
1. Fill the coolant tank with coolant and connect all hoses and power cords. Zero Return the ma-
chine.
2. Switch to MDI. Turn on TSC by pressing the AUX CLNT button on the control panel. Quickly go to
the back of the machine and check if the TSC pump motor is turning. Check if the pump is pulling
coolant up the clear intake hose. If it is, the machine is properly phased. If it is not pumping
coolant, immediately stop the pump by pressing the RESET button. Check that the intake hose
connection is tight. The pump cannot prime itself if the intake hose is loose. If the motor is not
turning, check that the power cords are connected and the circuit breaker inside the control box is
on.
The TSC pump will not pump if it is rotating backwards. The motor rotation should be counterclockwise when
viewed from the fan end. If the motor is rotating in the correct direction, but the pump is not pumping, call your
Haas Service Technician.
Caution: Running The TSC pump dry for more than 60 seconds can cause serious damage to the pump.
