Operation & Quick Setup Guide
Follow these standard steps for safe and efficient degassing:
- Oil Prep: Before running the pump for the first time, ensure the vacuum pump oil is filled to the mid-level line on the sight glass.
- Connect System: Thread the 5ft hose onto the chamber valve and the intake port of the 3.6 CFM pump. Tighten firmly by hand.
- Seal the Lid: Place the silicone gasket on the stainless steel chamber rim, then center the glass lid on top.
- Pull Vacuum: Close the release valve, open the main chamber valve, and turn on the pump. Watch the fluid-filled gauge hit your target depth.
- Maintenance: Change pump oil regularly (when it turns cloudy) to maintain peak suction capacity and extend the motor life.
