WARNING: To prevent personal injury and/or equipment damage, read and understand the operating manual prior to operation.
- Always wear proper personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves. Do not breathe refrigerant vapor or mist.
- Use this equipment in a well-ventilated area. If possible, operate the unit on the floor or at least 18 inches above the floor.
- Always disconnect power from the unit prior to servicing.
- Always use a DOT-approved recovery cylinder. Overfilling a cylinder (beyond 80% volume) can cause an explosion.
- Do not exceed the pressure rating of the recovery cylinder.
- Do not mix refrigerant types through a system or a container.
- Always use a grounded 3-wire extension cord. A 12 AWG extension cord must be 14 AWG minimum and no longer than 25 feet.
- Do not use this equipment in the vicinity of spilled or open containers of gasoline.
- The machine is equipped with a high-pressure safety shut-off switch that automatically shuts off the machine if pressure rises above 550 PSI.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
5.1. Refrigerant Recovery
- After completing the setup, open the liquid and vapor valves on the system being serviced.
- Open the outlet valve on the recovery cylinder.
- Turn the recovery machine ON.
- Slowly open the inlet valve on the recovery machine.
- Allow the machine to run until the desired vacuum is achieved. If the machine stalls, immediately close the inlet valve to prevent damage.
5.2. Self-Purge Feature
The self-purge feature helps eliminate potential cross-contamination between different refrigerants and saves time.
- After completing refrigerant recovery, close the inlet valve on the recovery machine.
- Change the purge valve from RECOVER to PURGE.
- Allow the machine to run until the desired vacuum is achieved.
- Note: The outlet valve on the recovery cylinder must remain open during the self-cleaning process.
5.3. Compatible Refrigerants
The RG6 is designed to work with a wide range of refrigerants, including:
- CFCs
- HFCs
- HCFCs
- R-410A
6. Manutenzjoni
- Skrin tal-Filtru: Regularly clean or replace the inlet filter screen to ensure optimal performance and prevent impurities from entering the machine.
- Tindif Ġenerali: Keep the exterior of the machine clean and free from debris.
- Ħażna: Aħżen il-magna f'ambjent niexef u nadif meta ma tkunx qed tintuża.
7 Issolvi l-problemi
- Machine Stalls: If the machine stalls during recovery, immediately close the inlet valve to prevent damage. Check for excessive liquid refrigerant entering the machine or a clogged filter screen.
- High Pressure Shut-off: If the machine shuts off due to high pressure (above 550 PSI), check for blockages in the outlet hose or an overfilled recovery cylinder. Allow the machine to cool before restarting.
- Slow Recovery: Ensure all valves are fully open, hoses are correctly connected, and the filter screen is clean. Consider using larger diameter hoses for improved flow.
