5.6  Starting-up 

 

Observe the basic safety instructions when using the pump. 
 
Before using the pump for the first time, it is recommended to spend a few minutes inspecting the 
pump and its electrical and vacuum connections. Please notice the information which are listed in 
chapter 5 Installation and Operation. 
 

1.  Connect the power cord to the power outlet. 

2.  Recheck the oil level and add or remove oil as needed. How to do this see chapter 6.1 Oil 

Level Control. 

3.  Close off the pump intake and the gas ballast valve, and run the pump at blank off for a few 

minutes. The gurgling noise should go away after a few minutes of running; it is caused by 
the high volume of air that flows through the pump when the pump is first turned on. If the 
gurgling noise does not stop, check the oil level again to see if it is low. Also check the 
pump intake fitting to be sure that it is tight.  

4.  Once proper pump operation has been verified, the pump intake can be opened to the 

vacuum system. 

5.  After running the pump for a few minutes, check the oil level again. If the level is too high or 

too low, stop the pump, vent it to the atmosphere and add or remove oil as needed 

– see 

chapter 6.3 Oil Change. 

6.  Before starting the pump when connection to the vacuum system, check all vacuum 

connections. 

 

 

CAUTION! 

Check the oil level prior to switching on the vacuum pump!  

 

5.7  Operating Temperature 

 

The function of the vacuum pump filled with Directorr

™ Premium vacuum oil is guaranteed between 

ambient temperatures of 10°C and 40°C. The lowest starting temperature is 10°C. The pump must be 
vented on the suction-side (suction port open). 
 

 

WARNING! 

In dependence on the operation mode, the casing temperature can reach 90°C.  
Make sure that the vacuum pump has not been installed in an accessible area, and 
make provision for a guard against contacts!
