1. BEFORE USING YOUR VACUUM PUMP
In all cases, motors are designed for operating voltages plus or minus 10% of the normal rating.
Single voltage motors are supplied fully connected and ready to operate.
(1)Check to be sure the voltage and frequency at the outlet match the specifications on the pump
motor decal. Check the ON-OFF switch to be sum it is in the OFF position before you plug the
pump into an outlet.Remove and discard the exhaust cap from the end of the pump's handle.
(2)The pump is shipped without oil in the reservoir. Before starting the pump, fill it with oil. Remove
the Exhaust Fitting cap and add oil until oil just shows in the bottom of the sight glass. The
approximate oil capacity of the pump is 180-500ml (reference the technical data).
(3)Replace the Exhaust Fitting cap and remove the cap from one of the inlet ports. Turn the motor
switch to ON. When the pump runs smoothly, replace the cap on the inlet port. This may take from
two to 30 seconds depending on the ambient temperature. After the pump runs for approximately
one minute check the sight glass for proper oil level. The level should be even with the sight glass
oil level line. Add oil if necessary.
Note:When the pump is running, the oil level should be even with the line on the sight glass.
Under filling will result in poor vacuum performance.Over filling can re¬sult in oil blowing from the
exhaust.
2.TO SHUT DOWN YOUR PUMP AFTER USE
To help prolong pump life and promote easy starting. Follow these procedures for shutdown.
(1)Close the manifold valve between the pump and the system.
(2)Remove the hose from the pump inlet.
(3)Cap the inlet port to prevent any contamination or loose particles from entering the port.
1. VACUUM PUMP OIL
The condition and type of oil used in any high vacuum pump are extremely important in determining
the ultimate attainable vacuum. We recommend the use of High Vacuum Pump Oil. This oil has
been specifically blended to maintain maxi¬mum viscosity at normal running temperatures and to
improve cold weather starts.
2.OIL CHANGE PROCEDURE
(1) Be sure the pump is warmed up.
(2) Remove the OIL DRAIN cap. Drain contaminated oil into a suitable con¬tainer and dispose of
properly. Oil can be forced from the pump by opening the inlet and partially blocking the exhaust
with a cloth while the pump is running. Do not operate the pump for more than 20 seconds using
this method.
(3) When the flow of oil has stopped,tilt the pump forward to drain residual oil.
(4)Replace the OIL DRAIN cap. Remove the exhaust fitting and fill the reservoir with new vacuum
pump oil until the oil just shows at the bottom of the sight glass.The approximate oil capacity of
the pump is 180-500ml (reference the technical data).
