Using the Vacuum Chamber

I am attempting to make a silicone mold of a 3D printed object and I would like to use the vacuum chamber to degas my silicone. As suggested by the wiki, I PM’d @rshill a day ago but I haven’t received a response. I’m trying to put together a timeline for my project. Is there anyone else who can show me how to operate the vacuum chamber this weekend?
Thanks

I could come by Saturday evening if you need help. If you feel comfortable though there isn’t any training required for it.

I think that’d be best if it’s no inconvenience to you.

I do not find the Kaya Cast vacuum machine on the Jewelry/Small Metals wiki page with a link to the user manual but I believe I have found that manual here:

Reviewing it may help you when you meet with rshill.

I’ve only used the pressure pot.

There is a vacuum pump right next to the vacuum pot. I believe @Kriskat30 and @maxk68 are both experienced in it’s use.
