The vacuum pump is an extremely versatile service
tool that can be used to perform a number of useful
tasks. The pump and its accessories are useful to
transfer fluids, help to bleed brakes and aid in
other tasks.
DESCRIPTION
The hand-held vacuum pump is simple, accurate,
easy to use, and has many applications. It consists
of a pump body, moveable handle and connection
fitting. The pump is easily held in your hand, and
when the handle is squeezed, vacuum is produced
at the front fitting.
VACUUM RELEASE
The vacuum can be released by lifting up on the
Release Lever. This action allows air to enter the
system, thus relieving the vacuum. Vacuum will also
be released when the hose is detached from
the front fitting.

PROPER CARE
Your pump is a sturdily built, precision instrument.
Do handle it carefully! Care for your pump and it
will give you years of trouble-free service.
LUBRICATION
The factory-installed lubricant is silicone oil and
should provide very long service. If you find it
necessary to lubricate your pump, use silicone oil.
If unavailable, you may use DOT 5 (not DOT 3)
silicone-based brake fluid or a salad vegetable oil.
Do not use petroleum based fluids or spray
lubricants (WD-40, motor oil, etc.), as these will
damage the pump.
