After connecting the appliance to the pumping line, check for leaks along
the whole of the line to ensure proper connections have been made (pump,
pipes, valves, etc.).
Incorporate flexible stainless steel flanged bellows in the vacuum and
exhaust pump line to reduce the transmission of vibration.
Make sure the direction of rotation has been checked (see

).
The vacuum pump is also a compressor: incorrect use may be dangerous.
Study the user manual before starting the pump.
Do not expose any part of the human body to vacuum.
The product is supplied with the inlet and exhaust sealed. Remove these
blanking plates when you are ready to connect the product on your
vacuum system.
As well as, don’t operate the product unless the inlet and exhaust are
connected to a vacuum and exhaust pumping line.
Preliminary precautions for inlet and exhaust connections
For safety reasons, any accessories connected to the inlet and exhaust
must be made of materials compatible with pumped gases.
It is recommended to be able to isolate the pump from the vacuum
and exhaust line, particularly if you pump on corrosive gases (inlet
and exhaust isolation valves, purges,…). Several fitting accessories are
available in the adixen Vacuum Products’ catalog.
