5. Setup
5.1. Vacuum Pump Setup
- Kuiswa: Place the vacuum pump on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area.
- Kuzadza Mafuta: Unscrew the oil cap. Carefully pour vacuum pump oil into the oil inlet until the oil level is between the MIN and MAX marks on the sight glass. Do not overfill.
- Power Connection: Connect the power cord to a grounded electrical outlet (110V/60Hz).
- Kutanga Kuongorora: Briefly turn on the pump to ensure it operates smoothly, then turn it off.

5.2. Digital Refrigerant Charging Weight Scale Setup
- Kuisa Battery: Open the battery compartment on the back of the LCD controller and insert a 9V DC battery (not included), observing polarity.
- Kuiswa: Place the scale platform on a firm, level surface.
- Controller Connection: Ensure the coiled cable from the scale platform is securely connected to the LCD controller.
- Power On: Press the 'ON/OFF' button on the LCD controller to power on the scale.
- Zero/Tare: Press the 'Z/T' button to zero the scale before placing any refrigerant tanks on it.
- Sarudzo Yeyuniti: Press the 'UNIT' button to cycle through available units (kg, oz, lb).
6. Operating Instructions
6.1. Vacuum Pump Operation (System Evacuation)
- Batanidza Hoses: Connect the appropriate manifold gauge set hoses to the vacuum pump and the HVAC system service ports. Ensure all connections are tight.
- Vhura Mavharuvhu: Open the high and low side valves on the manifold gauge set.
- Kutanga Pombi: Turn on the vacuum pump. Monitor the manifold gauges to observe the vacuum level.
- Nguva Yekubuda: Allow the pump to run until the desired vacuum level (e.g., 500 microns or lower) is achieved and held steady for a specified period (consult HVAC system manufacturer specifications). The pump has a 30-minute duty cycle.
- Vhara Mavharuvhu: Once evacuation is complete, close the manifold gauge set valves before turning off the vacuum pump.
- Dimbura: Turn off the vacuum pump and disconnect the hoses.
6.2. Digital Refrigerant Charging Operation
- Prepare Scale: Power on the scale and ensure it is zeroed ('Z/T' button). Select the desired unit ('UNIT' button).
- Tangi renzvimbo: Carefully place the refrigerant tank onto the center of the scale platform.
- Tare Weight: If the tank is not empty, press the 'Z/T' button to tare the weight of the tank, so the display shows 0.000. This allows you to measure the amount of refrigerant added or removed.
- Batanidza Hoses: Connect the appropriate manifold gauge set hose from the refrigerant tank to the HVAC system.
- Charge/Recover: Open the tank valve and the manifold gauge valve to begin charging or recovering refrigerant. Monitor the weight displayed on the scale.
- Monitor Stop the process once the desired amount of refrigerant has been transferred, as indicated by the scale reading.
- Close Valves & Disconnect: Close all valves and disconnect hoses.
