Low Holding Vacuum:

  • Disconnect vacuum hose from the V802 leading to V810 vacuum generator (or own vacuum pump)
  • Place finger over vacuum fitting and check Holding Vacuum gauge
  • If the Holding Vacuum is above 20” HG the V810 is operating normally

1. Air In

  1. Air in must be filtered compressor without an air oiler. This ensures no debris enters the unit.

  2. V849 inline air filter is provided to be inserted in air hose close to the V810 Vacuum Generator.

2. Check Air In Pressure

  1. If using the Standard V810 without the built in regulator: Adjust air pressure to 60 psi and check holding vacuum.

  2. Adjust Air In pressure to obtain maximum holding vacuum.

  3. If using the V810R minimum Air In pressure should be 70 psi.

3. Gauge Error

  1. If vacuum appears to be adequate but not reading a minimum of 20" Hg when plugging vacuum at the unit the gauge may be in error.

  2. If unit is dropped Vacuum gauge may have an error.

  3. Check against another vacuum gauge if available.

  4. Gauge is adjustable with set screw if a reliable gauge is available to calibrate against.

4. Vacuum generators clogged

  1. If V849 inline air filter or other filter has not been used it may be likely that debris has entered the unit.

  2. Open control box and find the two black vacuum generators.

  3. Disconnect hoses and unscrew generators.

  4. If an air oiler was used dip vacuum generator into isopropyl alcohol to clean - remove air oiler from compressor

  5. Blow compressed air into hose barb and small venturi hole to dislodge debris.

5. Using other than V802 Vacuum Adapter

  1. The V802 Vacuum adapter is highly recommended as other manufactures adapters leak excessively.
