Turn ON the Appion TEZ8 momentarily with one of the inlet 

ports open to remove any residual oil from the pump. Then 

turn the machine OFF and unplug from power source.

Open the large door on the left side of the machine to gain 

access to the TEZ

OM oil cartridge.

While  holding  the  lower  part  of  the  T

EZ

OM,  pull  the 

cartridge out of the side of the vacuum pump. (Fig. 1)

Locate and remove the cap and protective seal from the 

top of a new T

EZ

OM. The cap can be used to seal the old 

TEZ

OM for easy disposal. (Fig. 2)

Note:

 Dispose of the waste oil in accordance with your 

local regulations.

Locate  the  flat  side  of  the  new T

EZ

OM    and  hold  the 

cartridge so that this is facing toward the machine.

Place the oil suction tube into the new T

EZOM and insert 

the top of the T

EZ

OM first to make sure the oil suction tube 

remains inside the cartridge. (Fig. 3)

Changing the Oil

It is a good idea to always use clean fresh oil in your Appion TEZ8 vacuum pump. This not only 

prolongs the life of the pump, but also helps you to achieve a rapid and deep ultimate vacuum. 

Changing the oil in the Appion TEZ8 is as easy as installing a new T

EZ

OM oil cartridge following 

the procedure below. Replacement T

EZ

OM Oil Cartridges can be purchased from your local 

wholesaler. 

Note:

 Be sure to only use genuine Appion T

EZ

OM Oil Cartridges in your TEZ8 vacuum pump to 

ensure optimal performance. The use of other vacuum oil may inhibit the ultimate vacuum depth

Positive Pressure Relief

If there is residual pressure in the system when the pump is attached to the system, the Debris 

Monitor/Catch Tube will automatically disengage to relieve any positive pressure, preventing 

damage to the TEZ8.

Once the pressure has been relieved, restart the TEZ8 and the suction will draw the tube back into 

position, reseating itself on the double o-ring seal. If the catch tube does not reseat completely, 

simply open the protective door and press the tube upwards into position.

that can be achieved.

Note: 

The re-use or refilling of an Appion T

EZ

OM Oil Cartridge 

may introduce contaminants and debris into the pump, resulting 

in lost performance or damage to the TEZ8.
