Setup
Follow these steps to prepare your device for use:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging.
- Assemble Hose: Connect one end of the flexible hose to the manual pump handle and the other end to the port on the top of the vacuum cylinder, ensuring a secure fit.
- Select Sleeve: Choose a silicone sleeve that provides a comfortable yet snug fit around the base. Two sizes are typically included.
- Attach Sleeve: Place the selected silicone sleeve onto the opening of the vacuum cylinder. Ensure it is seated properly to create an airtight seal.
- Lubricate: Apply a water-based lubricant to the opening of the silicone sleeve and to the area to be inserted to facilitate comfortable entry and a better seal.

Operating Instructions
Use the device as follows:
- Insertion: Gently insert into the lubricated silicone sleeve and cylinder opening. Ensure the base is fully inside the cylinder and the sleeve forms a tight seal against the body.
- Pumping: Begin to pump the handle slowly and steadily. Observe the pressure gauge as you pump.
- Monitor Pressure: Do not exceed a comfortable pressure level. The pressure gauge provides a visual indication of the vacuum created. Stop pumping if you feel any pain or excessive discomfort.
- Duration: Maintain the vacuum for a short period, typically 5-10 minutes. Do not exceed 20 minutes per session.
- Release Pressure: The pump features an advanced trigger with a pressure release valve. To release the vacuum, press the designated button or lever on the pump handle. This allows for instant pressure release for safety and comfort.
- Removal: Once the pressure is fully released, gently remove the device.
- Frequency: Limit use to once per day or as advised by a healthcare professional.

Maintenance and Cleaning
Proper cleaning and maintenance ensure the longevity and hygiene of your device:
- Disassembly: After each use, disassemble the cylinder, sleeves, and hose from the pump handle.
- Cleaning: Wash all components that come into contact with the body (cylinder, sleeves) with warm water and a mild, antibacterial soap. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
- Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembly or storage. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the device in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your device, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Loss of suction | Improperly seated sleeve, loose hose connection, damaged sleeve, faulty valve in pump. | Ensure sleeve is flush against the body and cylinder. Check hose connections for tightness. Inspect sleeve for tears or damage; replace if necessary. If the pump valve is faulty (e.g., air flows back), the unit may need replacement. |
| Discomfort or scrotum suction | Incorrect sleeve size, insufficient lubrication, excessive pressure, improper positioning. | Use the correct sleeve size for a snug fit. Apply ample water-based lubricant. Do not exceed comfortable pressure levels. Ensure only the intended area is within the cylinder. |
| Pressure gauge reads incorrectly (e.g., 5psi at zero) | Gauge malfunction. | The gauge may be faulty. While the pump may still function, accurate pressure monitoring will be compromised. Consider replacing the unit if precise pressure readings are critical. |
| Hose kinks easily | Hose length or material. | Adjust positioning during use to prevent kinking. Ensure the hose is not bent sharply at connections. |
