    • Cut two pieces of 3/16" (~4.76mm) heat shrink tubing to ~15mm. These pieces were not included in the kit.

  6. Solder the wires to the vacuum pump.  Do this by stripping ~5-10mm of insulation off, and forming into a "hook" and threading this through the vacuum pump connections.  Solder the connection and inspect the joint.
