NOTE: For AT 500R transmissions, the minimum size for primary cooler hose is No. 16 with a minimum ID of 0.875 inch (22.4 mm) and for auxiliary cooler hose is No. 8 with a minimum ID of 0.50 inch (12.7 mm). • If the hydraulic system has been contaminated with debris, install an auxiliary filter between the cooler and transmission (in cooler-return line). Refer to Paragraph 1–10 for filter recommendation and installation details. • Vacuum or air modulator line and/or hose — inspect for deterioration, bad connections, loose or missing clamps, or improper routing that causes kinks.
