How to Use

How to Change the Oil

1. 

Run vacuum process a couple of times to "warm up" the oil.

2. 

Turn off machine and unplug to prevent electrocution.

3. 

Locate the drain & fill plugs on the side of the unit.

4. 

Locate drain bolt on underneath side of vacuum pump.

5. 

For access and ease of draining 

the oil, position machine so the 

drain bolt is "clear" and the dirty 

oil can be captured.

6. 

Oil will flow immediately when 

bolt is removed.  Place catch cup 

underneath before removing 

drain bolt.

7. 

Capture oil from pump. When oil 

is completely drained, replace 

and tighten bolt. (Dispose of old 

oil properly, according to your 

local and state regulations.)

8. 

Follow the "Adding Oil to Vacuum 

Pump" instructions on page 3. 

Do not use machine until oil has 

been added.

Vacuum Pump Maintenance

The VP400 vacuum pump requires periodic oil changes. Required oil change 

schedule:

 

First oil change: 1 week after use.

 

Future oil changes: every 3 months or 250 cycles.

Using pump site glass, check the oil level and color frequently.

 

Oil must remain between 

1

/

2

 and 

3

/

4

 of site glass.

 

With use, the pump oil will become cloudy, dark or even "milky". Once oil 

becomes discolored, change oil replacing with new VacMaster

®

 vacuum oil.
