Introduction
This manual contains relevant information and instructions for starting up, operating and
maintenance of the machine. Read this manual carefully before putting the machine into
operation. Refer also to this manual if in doubt as to the operation and/or functioning of the
machine. If the manual does not offer a solution, consult the supplier.
Interdictions
 Never pack products that can be damaged by the vacuum.
 Alive animals may never be vacuumed.
 The guarantee and/or liability expires if damage is caused by repairs and/or changes
not made by Henkelman or one of its authorized distributors. In the case of
malfunctions contact the supplier.
 Always clean the lid with solvent-free cleaning agents. Solvents may damage the lid.
 The machine must always be completely voltage free before any maintenance is
carried out. Always remove the plug from the wall socket.
 High pressure cleaning is not permitted for cleaning the machine. High pressure
cleaning can cause considerable damage to electronic and other parts of the
machine.
 Water may never be permitted to enter either the extraction nozzle of the chamber or
the blow-off opening of the pump. This causes irreversible damage to the pump.
 Never place the machine directly next to a heat source or a steaming device (for
example; a combi-steamer, dishwasher or a stove). This may cause damage to the
lid.

Installation
Transportation and placement
 The machine must be moved or transported in an upright position. The machine may
not be tilted as this can cause damage to the pump.
 Place the machine on a flat, level surface. This is essential for problem free operation
of the machine.
 Enough space must be left around the machine for good ventilation. The space must
be at least 5 centimetres.
 The ambient temperature in which the machine is operated must be between 5 ºC
and 30 ºC. When operating the machine in other ambient temperatures please
contact the supplier for advice.
Connecting the machine
 Check that the voltage stated on the machine tag is the same as the mains voltage.
 Always connect the machine correctly to an earthed socket to avoid a fire hazard or
electrical shocks (earth connection is green/yellow).
 The power cable must always be free and nothing may be placed on it.
 Replace the power cable immediately if damaged.
 Always disconnect the power if there are problems with the machine or during
maintenance, prior to starting work on the machine.
 If the machine is stationary for long periods then the power should always be
disconnected.

Connecting the gas flush system (if applicable)
 Connect the hose from the gas bottle to the hose coupling on the rear side of the
machine and secure it with a hose clamp.
 The diameter of the hose nipple connector for the gas bottle is 6 mm.
 Never use flammable gasses or gas mixtures containing much oxygen. There is a
danger of explosion when using the aforementioned gasses. Accidents and/or
damage caused by using abovementioned gasses void all liability on the part of
supplier as well as the guarantee.
 The gas bottles must always be correctly secured. If the gas flush function and/or the
machine is not in use then the main valve of the gas bottle must always be closed.
 The pressure of the pressure reducing valve on the gas bottle may never be set to
more than 1 bar. A higher pressure may damage the machine.
For more information about the use of gas bottles, please consult an authorised gas supplier

Starting the machine for the 1st time
1. Check if there is enough oil in the machine. If not, please fill oil. Oil is delivered in a
separate bottle.
2. Press the on/off switch.
3. Select the desired program.
4. Put the product in the vacuum bag and place it in the machine with the opening of the
bag over the seal bar.
5. Close the lid.
6. Leave the machine for at least 4 hours switched on to enable the PCB battery to
charge itself.
