  • Page 4: Cautions For Safety

    0.3 Cautions for safety Danger When toxic or flammable gases are exhausted from the pump, they may leak not only from the pump outlet but also from the pump unit itself. Take proper measures suitable for the type of gas. Danger After the pump has been used for exhausting toxic gasses, not only the pump itself but also vacuum pump oil (hereinafter called “pump oil”) get toxic.
  • Page 5 Warning Do not use the pump in an explosive atmosphere. Failure to do so will result in injury or fire. Warning Mount vacuum valve and leak valve between the vacuum chamber and pump. To stop the pump, always close vacuum valve and then open leak valve. If this procedure is neglected, the pump oil fills the cylinder, making restart difficult or causing damage to the pump.
