3. Connect the charging hose of the low-pressure side of manifold gauge to a
gas service port as seen in the picture.
4. Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge counterclockwise.
5. Evacuate the air in the connected pipes using the vacuum pump for about
15 minutes.
 
Make sure that pressure gauge shows -0.1MPa(-76cmHg) after about
10 minutes.
This procedure is very important to avoid a gas leak.
 
Close the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge clockwise.
 
Turn o the vacuum pump.
 
Check for 2 minutes if there is any pressure change.
 
