OIL CAPACITY
CHANGING OIL
Being just a
teaspoon low
affects the
ultimate vacuum.
Model DV-3E
24.5 oz.
Models DV-4E & DV-6E
22.5 oz.
Slowly add oil until oil level
rises even with arrows on front of cover.
Replace oil fill plug.
If oil is too low, you will hear air out of the exhaust. If the
oil level is too high, excess oil will be blown out the exhaust.
Pump oil should be changed after each use. If system is
heavily contaminated, oil may have to be changed several
times during evacuation.
After initial fill up, best to check oil level with pump running.
OPERATION
IMPORTANT
DO NOT START PUMP BEFORE ADDING OIL
The following procedures will prevent oil from being drawn into
cartridge and creating hard start-up.
START-UP
Close both sides of manifold and make connection to vacuum
pump or auxiliary blank-off equipment. Start pump.
SHUT-DOWN
Crack open unused port to break vacuum. Allow pump to run
2-3 seconds. Shut down and remove hose connections and
cap intakes.
To reach deep vacuum, Eliminator pumps need
clean, moisture-free oil throughout evacuation.
Care should be taken to avoid contact on skin and clothing
when changing oil. Used oil should be disposed of in a
leakproof corrosive-resistant container.
1. After every evacuation while pump is
warm and oil is thin, place pump on level
surface and open oil drain. Oil can be
forced from the pump by opening one
intake and partially blocking the exhaust
with a cloth while the pump is running.
Do not operate the pump for more than 5
minutes using this method.
2. Slowly add oil until oil level rises even
with arrows on front of cover. Replace
oil fill plug.
After Evacuation, Oil
Contains Rust Forming
Water and Corrosive
Acids. Drain Immediately
While Pump Is Warm.
FLUSHING
If the oil is badly contaminated,
flushing may be necessary.
Slowly pour 1/3–1/2 cup of fresh
JB vacuum pump oil into the
intake connection while pump is running. Repeat as required
until contamination is removed from oil reservoir, pump rotors,
vanes and housing. Dispose of all oil used in flushing of pump.

Oil drips from point where shaft
enters the pump housing.
Pump shuts down and will not start.
Possible Cause(s)
1. Power cord not plugged in securely.
2. Motor switch not on.
3. Pump temp. below 30°F.
4. Inconsistent line voltage.
1. Contaminated oil.
2. Oil level too low.
3. Air leak in system being evacuated.
4. Pump inlet fittings missing or not
tightened.
5. Coupler slipping
Damaged oil seal.
Thermal overload may be open.
Corrective Action
1. Plug power cord in securely.
2. Turn motor switch to ON position.
3. Warm up pump to 30°F & turn motor
switch on.
4. Line voltage must be within 10% of
115 volt.
1. Change oil.
2. Add oil.
3. Locate & repair leaks.
4. Clean or replace O-ring.
5. Tighten coupler setscrews to flats of
cartridge and motor.
Replace.
Disconnect pump from system. Wait about
15 minutes for motor to cool and turn it on
again. If it cycles off again, return pump to
factory for repair.
Pump cycles on and off from a
completely cold start and then runs
smoothly.
Oil backed up into cartridge and was
being cleared out. Pump has not been
shutdown properly.
1. Remove 1/4" cap.
2. Turn pump on.
PUMP MOTOR
Pump and oil must be above 30°F. Line voltage must be equal to motor nameplate ±10%. Normal operating temperature is
approximately 160°F, which is hot to the touch. Line voltage and ambient conditions will affect this somewhat. Motor has automatic
resetting thermal overload protection.
Eliminator
is designed for continuous duty and will run for extended periods without overheating.
