, and turn ON the vacuum pumpÅfs power switch.
During this step, perform evacuating (about 10~15 minutes); for the evacuating time, refer to the equipment
manufacturer's manual.
d) When the compound gauge's pointer has indicated -0.1 MPa (-76 cmHg)

, place the handle Lo in the fully
closed position
5
, and turn OFF the vacuum pump's power switch.
Keep this state for 1 ~ 2 minutes, and ascertain that the compound gauge's pointer does not retum.
e) Fully open the control valves.
