Adding Oil
(Except VMC10DPU)
Initial Setup
Adjusting Timing Controls
1. Remove the back panel by unscrewing all the corner screws.
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.
1. Attach the power cord to the unit and plug the cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
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. Press the ON/OFF Button on the control panel to turn the machine on. The LED screen
on the control panel will illuminate, confirming the machine is on.
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” or “Down” arrow 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.
Note:
All adjustments and changes to this unit’s timing must be made with the lid lock
disengaged and the lid open. DO NOT use the machine with the lid lock engaged.
