- Connect hand vacuum pump VAS 6213 to vacuum diaphragm - arrow -.







- Set the slide ring - 1 - on hand vacuum pump VAS 6213 to position - B - for "pressure".

CAUTION: The pressure must not exceed 750 mbar. If the pressure is exceeded, the vacuum diaphragm can be damaged.

- Operate hand vacuum pump VAS 6213 several times and observe rods.

The linkage - A - must move approximately 300 mbar and be at approximately 700 mbar at end position.







Actuator lift is approximately 10 mm.

NOTE: If pressure cannot be raised with hand vacuum pump VAS 6213 or pressure drops immediately, check hand vacuum pump VAS 6213 and connecting hoses for leaks. If no malfunction can be found: Replace vacuum diaphragm.
