INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The condition of the Upper Gasket and Lower Gasket parts on
your Vacuum Sealer are critical to the forming of an air tight seal
around the bag when the cover is locked in position.
Food debris or deformation of the gaskets due to the machine
being stored in the locked position can affect the ability of the
machine to evacuate air from the bag successfully.
To prevent this:
• Always store the machine in an unlocked position. To do this
start with the cover in the open position, pull the cover lock
handle down to the lock position but with the cover still open.
Then close the cover. This will enable you to shut the unit but
not deform the gaskets.
• Regularly inspect the Upper and Lower Gaskets to ensure they
are clean, in good condition and not deformed (compressed).

If your machine is failing to remove air from the bag, it may be due
to the gaskets. If this happens:
1. Inspect Upper and Lower Gasket and ensure they are clean
and in good condition and that they sealed correctly.
2. If no damage is apparent the gaskets may be deformed
(compressed).
3. Remove the gaskets, turn upside down and replace back into
the machine.
4. If these steps fail then replace the gaskets with a replacement
kit from Proline Australia. Part VS-C3-Gasket.
