My favorite binders ever are Sailrite Swingaway.

Sucking in the top, exhausting out the side. After the "Claws" have been coated and baked with Teflon, a test need to be run to ensure the bond has taken. No sense in reassembling any further if the teflon is coming out. Internal tolerances are very, very tight. If the teflon starts to ball up, those balls will bring the pump to a stop.

Vacuum Meter Calibration

Every rebuilt pump spends a few days in the test area. Amperage draw, oil temps, motors temps and vacuum pressure are recorded every hour to ensure quality. Vacuum can be tricky to measure correctly, and gauges get calibrated regularly.

Sometimes a vacuum pump loses suction from simple oil contamination. Byproducts from the process dirty the oil. A normal flush won't provide long lasting service, but a total disassemble is not required. The case is opened, and everything gets cleaned but the pump itself is not broken down. New oil in a clean case, new gaskets and seals, will bring 90% of this style vacuum pumps back to life.

New rolls of clear vinyl are a team lift over 75lbs. They can't be dragged across the table to unwind. They are not manageable until more than half the roll is gone. I can't count the number of rolls of clear this clever jig built from a rough sketch, has dispensed without scratching the fragile material.
