SB, that black cap with the arrows pointing all directions is your air exhaust port. Just got mine and filled it with oil.

Just leave it alone. Some vacuum pumps use the handle as the exhaust port. I believe if you look at the exploded view of the parts it does mention it by name there. They may not have mentioned it because they didn't want you messing with it.

OH NO, that is exactly what Dad said sixty years ago when he gave me my first ,22, sadly he did not hide the screw drivers in time!  HMMM, I'll have to see if I can find some indicater marks to see how it fits.  Thanks for the replys.

Denster how did you connect that coupler to the vacuum pump? I got the pump from Harbor and the fitting that is on the pump is a one piece machined brass with fittings designed for a refrigerant hose to connect to them. I see you have a pipe coupler connected to the fitting that is on the pump. How did you do that?

Just a trip to Ace Hardware and pick up the correct union fittings. Don't forget the teflon tape for all fittings and some big spring clamps to hold the bag to the table. Generally three on each side. Keeps it from bunching up.

Sorry but I can't think of a fitting that will convert from a hose fitting to a pipe thread..........I just change the whole piece to a street elbow and accomplished the same thing.
