Start a conveying procedure.

Wait until the vacuum generator begins to operate; after this, the hand should be- come sensibly attached by suction within a few seconds.

If no vacuum can be felt, the line system has a leak.

Stop the conveying procedure.

Wait until the blower has come to a standstill.

Switch off the unit.

Check the line system and seal the leakage.
