- Page 4 Guzzler GE-0401x / -0501x Pump Installation & Safety Information Your Guzzler pump ships fully assembled and ready to operate. The pump on/off switch is located on the side of the switch box. (Figure 1) You can test the pump’s operation by plugging it into a 115 VAC outlet and turning it on using the on/off switch.
- Page 5 Pump Installation and Operating Information Your Guzzler Pump is capable of developing 22 in. of Hg vacuum (0.7 bar), but it is a low‐cfm (cubic feet of air per minute) pump. This means that even very small leaks can prevent the pump from delivering its rated vacuum. Maintain your tap lines to keep your system tight and address problems that can cause vacuum leaks.
- Page 6 Maintenance - Changing the Diaphragm Over time, the elastomer components of the pump (i.e., the diaphragm and valves) will fail. Diaphragms tend to develop a hole or tear. If the diaphragm fails, the pump will continue to operate, but will be unable to create or maintain a vacuum.

One valve is located between the pump body and the inlet port; the other, between the pump body and the outlet port. Your Guzzler pump may be equipped with either duckbill valves or umbrella valves, depending on the pump options chosen.

(Figure 13) Insert the stem of the new valve into the valve stop retaining hole so Umbrella valve stop with O-ring installed in grooves. (Example shown for GE-0401x that the flat por on of the valve is on the same side of the valve pump.) stop as the old valve. Use pliers to grasp the stem of the valve Figure 12 on the other side and pull it completely through un l it snaps into place. 6. Posi on the new valve (or the inspected and cleaned old valve) between the pump body and the pump inlet flange, taking care to orient the valve as shown in Figure 10 on page 7.
