set up

1.   To set and adjust the timing controls, press the "Set" button on the front control 

panel. You can repress the "Set" button to cycle through the settings for "Vacuum" or 

"Sealing." Once selected, the current time setting will appear on the LED Screen.  

The unit’s standard settings are:  

Vacuum Time – 40 Seconds  

Sealing Time – 1.2 Seconds 

2.   Once the setting is selected, you can increase or decrease the time by pressing the 

"Up / Down" buttons accordingly. The new time settings will appear on the screen 

and be saved to the machine.  

Note: For setting the vacuum time, you can use filler plates to occupy space in the 

chamber, leaving less air to be removed from the chamber, thus decreasing the 

overall vacuuming time.  

Note: For setting the sealing time, it is recommended you increase the seal time by 

small increments of 0.1 to avoid over-sealing or melting the bag.

3.   Upon finishing setting the timing controls, press the "Set" button until no lights on the 

control panel are illuminated. The machine will not operate until all lights are off.

Adjusting Timing Controls

Note:  All adjustments and changes to this unit’s timing must be made with the lid lock

2.   Release the lid lock, located on the right side of the machine, and allow the lid to lift 

and remain open.  
Note: Do not use the machine with the lid lock engaged. Always release the lid lock 

before use. The lid lock feature is only to be used when the machine is in storage, 

never while in use. 

3.   Locate the red dial on the left side of the machine. Turn the power on by rotating 

the dial towards the front of the machine, from the “0” to the “1” position. The LED 

display on the control panel will illuminate, confirming the machine is on.

2.  Remove the oil fill bolt located on the vacuum pump using a thumbscrew cap. 

3.  Fill the pump with oil until it reaches the white line marked on the bottle. 

4.   Replace the oil fill bolt on the vacuum pump, and then replace the back panel of  

the unit.
