CAuTION : Always purge the RG6000 unit after
a recovery procedure. Failure to purge the
remaining refrigerant from the unit could result
in acidic degradation of internal components,
ultimately causing premature failure of the unit.
1. Verify the liquid and vapor valves on manifold
gauge set are closed (if applicable).
2. Close the valves on the system being serviced
(if applicable).
3. Verify the outlet valve on the unit is open and
the inlet valve is closed.
4. Verify the liquid valve on the recovery cylinder
is open.
5. Turn the recover / purge valve to the PURGE
position.
6. Toggle the power switch ON.
7. Slowly turn the inlet valve toward the PURGE
position. As the inlet side pressure decreases,
open the valve to the full purge position.
8. Run the unit until the desired vacuum is
achieved.
9. Close the inlet and outlet valves on the unit.
10. Toggle the power switch OFF.
11. Close the ports on the recovery cylinder.
12. Turn the recover / purge valve to the
RECOVER position.
13. Disconnect all accessories and replace the in-
line filter.

Recovery procedure
1. Connect the unit to a 115V outlet.
2. Slowly open the liquid valve of the recovery
cylinder while watching hoses and connections
for leaks.
3. Set the recover / purge valve on the RG6000
unit to RECOVER.
4. Open the liquid valve on the manifold gauge
set.
Note: Opening the liquid valve removes
liquid from the system first, greatly reducing
recovery time.
5. Open the outlet valve on the RG6000 unit.
6. Toggle the power switch to the ON position.
7. Slowly open the inlet valve on the unit. Note: If the unit begins to “knock”, slowly throttle back (close)
the inlet valve until the noise stops.
8. Once the liquid has been removed from the system, open the vapor valve on the manifold gauge set to
finish evacuating the system.
9. Run the RG6000 until the desired vacuum is achieved.
10. Close the vapor and liquid valves on the manifold gauge set.
11. Turn the inlet valve on the RG6000 to the CLOSED position.
12. Toggle the power switch OFF.

Tech Tip
If you have trouble starting or re-starting the unit
due to high head pressure, first close the inlet
valve. Then slowly turn the inlet valve toward the
purge position until the inlet pressure rises. Close
the inlet valve again and re-start the unit.
