4 Operating
4.1
Before using you 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.
➢ 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 sure it is in the OFF position before you plug the pump into an
outlet. Check to be sure the gas ballast valve is closed. Remove
and discard the exhaust plug from the end of the pump's handle.
➢ The pump is shipped without oil in the reservoir. Before starting the
pump, fill it with oil. Remove the OIL FILL cap and add oil until oil
just shows in the bottom of the sight glass. The approximate oil
capacity of the pump is 220-250mL.
➢ Replace the OIL FILL 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 should be even with the sight glass for proper oil 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. Underfilling with result in poor vacuum
performance. Over filling can result in oil blowing from the exhaust.
The charging operation of the vacuum pump causes the appearance of
a white smoke, it is oil vapor which is quite normal.
4.2
To shut down your pump after use
To help prolong pump life and promote easy starting, follow these
procedures for shutdown.
➢ Close the manifold valve between the pump and the system
➢ Remove the hose from the pump inlet
➢ Cap the inlet port to prevent any contamination or loose
particles from entering the port.

Maintenance
5.1
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
recommends the use of High Vacuum Pump Oil. This oil has been
specifically blended to maintain maximum viscosity at normal running
temperatures and to improve cold weathers starts.
