Shut Down Procedure
1.

3.
4.
Close the manifold valve between the pump and the system.
Slowly remove the hose from the pump inlet to remove any residual oil from the pump.
Turn the power switch OFF.
Keep inlet ports capped when not in use to prevent moisture accumulation inside the pump.
Standard Setup Continued
Turn the power switch ON.
Note:
The TEZ8 is designed with a soft start to prevent unnecessary stress and wear on
the pump. Open the cap on the 1/4” inlet port when starting the vacuum pump to allow it to
start easier. Close the 1/4” port cap tightly once the TEZ8 is running at full speed.
Evacuate the system, following standard servicing procedures.

Hose Attachment
The input assembly can be swiveled to allow easy
access to the desired ports, depending on hose and
system port availablity.
To change the orientation, loosen the screw collar
under the ports by turning it counterclockwise. You
can then swivel the input fittings to face the desired
direction. Once you have oriented the fittings, tighten
the screw collar by turning it clockwise.
Tighten
Loosen
The TEZ8 is equipped with four input fittings of different sizes. These fittings should be kept
sealed with the included Appion MegaSeal
TM
caps when the pump is not being used to prevent
moisture from accumulating inside the pump. For increased flow and shorter evacuation times,
multiple inputs may be used at once.
Debris Monitor/Catch Tube
The TEZ8 is equipped with a clear Debris Monitor/Catch Tube located in the right-front corner of
the machine which allows you to observe the incoming airflow for debris, oil or any other material
which could damage the pump. Be sure to empty and clean this tube after every job.
Note:
Monitor this tube regularly during operation, as liquids present in the tube may raise the
vapor pressure at the pump and drastically increase evacuation times.
Remote Exhaust Vent Connection
A Remote Exhaust Vent Connection is located on top of the front face of the TEZ8. It is threaded
for connection to a standard garden hose, which can be used to vent exhaust to another location.
To minimize any back pressure on the pump, be sure the hose is free of any obstructions and is
the shortest length needed to reach the desired exhaust location.
