priming.
Should lockout occur prior to the arrival of the fuel, await at least
20 seconds before repeating the operation.
The pump vacuum should not exceed a maximum of 0.4 bar (30
cm Hg).
Beyond this limit gas is released from the oil.
The pipes must all be perfectly sealed.

Installation
In vacuum systems B (Fig. 18) we recommend bringing the return
line to the same height as the suction line.
In this case a foot valve is not required.
Should however the return line arrive over the fuel level, a foot
valve is required.
This solution however is less safe than previous one, due to the
possibility of leakage of the valve.
