Maintenance Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum Service Whenever you send a pump to Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum, indicate whether the pump is contaminated or is free of substances which could pose a health hazard. If it is contaminated, specify exactly which substances are involved.
CAUTION Please note the safety information given in Sections 0.3 and 0.4. Pumps which have not directly been delivered from Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum, e.g. in sys tems, may have been filled with oils different from LVO 100. In this case a refill with LVO 100 may cause problems. Therefore check before the refill the kind of oil in the pump and fill in only suitable oil or change the oil.

Waste oil from vacuum pumps (Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum oils which are based on mineral oils) which are subject to normal wear and which are con- taminated due to the influence of oxygen in the air, high temperatures or mechanical wear must be disposed of through the locally available waste oil disposal system.
