The minimum clearance is 6 inches (15 cm) on all sides of the machine and
30 inches (76.2 cm) inches above the machine.
Ambient temperature must be between 41-86 °F (5-30 °C). Never locate the
machine near a heat source. This can damage the lid.
1. Remove all packing material and tape, as well as any protective plastic
from the equipment.
2. Clean any glue residue left by the plastic or tape.
3.
Place the vacuum pack machine on a flat, level surface.
4. Check the oil gauge window at the back of the machine. Verify the oil
level is between the minimum and maximum fill lines.
NOTICE: Running the machine without oil or insufficient oil will
damage the machine and void the warranty.
5. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet that matches the
nameplate rated voltage.
NOTICE: Using a voltage other than the nameplate rated voltage will
cause damage to the unit. Incorrect voltage, modification
to the power cord or electrical components can damage
the unit and will void the warranty.
6. Run the Pump Conditioning program. See “Pump Conditioning program”
on page 4 in this manual.
