OPERATION
The machine includes 20 default programs. These programs can be
named and the settings customized for specific needs. See Create
Custom Programs and Labels on page 4 for instructions.
NOTICE: Never pack products that can be damaged by vacuum
packaging.
NOTICE: To reduce condensation and corrosion risk for the pump,
cool products before packing.
NOTICE: When packing food, always select a program that includes
Liquid Sensor Control.
NOTICE: Special instructions apply for packing liquid products. See
Packing Liquid Products on page 3.
NOTICE: The machine is designed for a maximum use of five hours
per day.
NOTICE: This machine is not designed for continuous use. Allow 15
seconds between packing cycles.
NOTICE: If the machine has been in use for one hour, stop the
machine and allow it to cool to ambient temperature.
NOTICE: Do NOT tilt the machine. Tilting could enable oil to flow out
of the pump and cause damage to the machine.
Turn On the Machine
1. Rotate the lid retainer so it is not covering the lid. The lid retainer is
used only for securing the lid when the machine is not in use.
2. Press and release the On/Off button and allow approximately 7-10
seconds for the display to load.
3. If the machine has not been used for a while, run the Pump
Conditioning Program. See page 7.
Place the Product in the Chamber
CAUTION
Burn Hazard
Sealing bar may become hot after repeated use. Do not touch
the sealing bar when placing vacuum bags in the chamber.
1. Place the food product in a vacuum sealing bag that fits completely
within the chamber.
2. Place the bag in the chamber with the open end over the sealing
bar. Make sure the bag is smooth, without wrinkles or folds.
3. For small products, place one or more insert plates under the
product. This fills empty space in the chamber, which reduces the
cycle time.
4. Multiple vacuum bags can be placed over the sealing bars. Do NOT
overlap vacuum bags.
Select a Program
Packing a Food Product: Select a program that includes Liquid Sensor
Control.
Packing a Liquid Product: See important information under Packing
Liquid Products on page 3.

Liquid Control – Use when packing food. Detects the boiling
point, stops the vacuum and advances to the next step to
produce a better quality product and prevents damage to the
pump from moisture in the product.
Liquid Control + – Similar to Vacuum +.
Extends the vacuum cycle to enable air trapped in the
product to escape the vacuum bag.
Sealing Time – Sets the seal time.
• 2.0 to 2.5 seconds recommended for most bags.

MAINTENANCE (CONTINUED)
7. Cut a piece of replacement Teflon tape to the same length as the
sealing bar.
8. Apply the replacement tape to the sealing bar.
9. Cut new sealing wires to the length of the sealing bar, plus about 6"
(15 cm).
10. Attach one wire to one side of the seal bar by tightening the screw.
11. Pull the wire across the sealing bar straight and tight.
12. Attach it by tightening the screw.
13. Repeat steps 10 through 12 for the second wire.
14. Trim the wires.
15. Cut a piece of Teflon tape the same length of the sealing bar, plus
about 2" (5 cm).
16. Apply the tape smoothly over the sealing wires on the sealing bar.
17. Trim the tape.
18. Place the sealing bar back in the machine. Verify that the sealing
bar is properly snapped into the holder.
Replace the Lid Gasket
The lid gasket ensures the vacuum chamber is completely sealed
during the packing cycle. This is essential to achieve maximum
vacuum. The lid gasket wears due to the extreme pressure differences
and must be replaced regularly.
Tools Needed:
• Replacement gasket
• Scissors
1. Remove the worn gasket.
Lid gasket
2. Cut a new piece of gasket slightly longer than the old one. Position
the new gasket so the lip faces downward and outward.
3. Press the gasket into the slot evenly.
4. Trim the gasket so the ends come tightly together to prevent
leakage. The ends must be cut off straight. If the lid gasket is too
short or too long, it can cause problems when closing the lid or
leakage may occur.
Replace the Seal Pad
Inspect the pad for roughness. Replace if areas of the pad are rough.
Tools Needed:
• Replacement seal pad
• Scissors
1. Remove the worn pad from the holder.
Seal pad
2. Cut a new piece of seal pad the same length as the old one. A pad
that is too short or too long will cause sealing problems.
3. Place the new pad in the holder. Ensure that the pad is completely
and evenly placed in the groove.
4. Place the new piece in the silicone holder. Ensure that the silicone
rubber is completely and evenly placed in the groove.
