hours of operation.
E³ PUMP is a special function allowing to
extend even to 1000 hours the life of the
pump oil used in the station.
E³ PUMP function performance is
suggested at the end of 60-hour
operation intervals of the vacuum pump
and can be manually activated in the
MAINTENANCE menu pressing E³ PUMP.
E³ PUMP procedure has to be started
only after checking and, if necessary,
topping up the pump oil level and lasts 1
hour: during this time the tool cannot be
used.
During the procedure the oil is
automatically purified from the gaseous
polluting residues absorbed during the
emptying operations of vehicles air
conditioning systems.
At the end of the procedure, the vacuum
pump performance check is carried out
and a result to the operator is signalled. In
case of negative result you have to
replace the vacuum pump oil.
After 1000 hours of vacuum pump
operation since the last oil change, the E³
PUMP procedure cannot be activated
anymore and you have to replace the oil
according to the following instructions.
