IMPERIAL TRUCK MOUNTED VACUUM TANKER MANUAL
OPERA
TION
Vacuum Pump Pre-Startup Procedure
Perform the following procedure each time before
you operate the vacuum pump:
•
Make sure that the rotor shaft turns freely by
hand. This is especially important in cold weather
to make sure that the pump is not frozen up with
ice.
•
Check the level in the oil reservoir. Most pumps
have a dipstick for checking oil. The oil in the
reservoir requires periodic refilling because the
pump consumes oil in the process of lubrication.
Use only OEM recommended types and brands of
oil for your pump. Table .2 lists the manufacturer
recommended lubricants for the most popular
vacuum pumps supplied by Imperial Industries.
If you have difficulty obtaining a manufacturer
recommended oil, contact Imperial Industries
about its availability.
•
If your pump model has grease fitting for the
bearings, add grease. It is important not to over
grease pump bearings. Use only one or two pumps
on the grease gun when greasing.
►
NOTICE: Check the oil level in the rear housing at
regular intervals. Allowing the pump to run low on oil
during operation will result in damage to the pump.
