18 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:
• Start with the lid in the open position, close the lid but do not lock
the lid down.
• 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 Pro-line Australia’s online store, code VS-GASKET-I30 or
VS-GASKET-I40.
Keep the unit in a flat and safe place, out of the reach of children.
