1) We recommend you use the vacuum pump while the skin is warm, after a bath or a shower is ideal. Our testers report this makes an even bigger erection and gets the blood flowing and engorgement more effective.
2) To get a good seal trim pubic hair back to ½ inch, instantly making the penis look larger, but it makes for a more comfortable session, and stops pulling on the hair.
3) Some men start pumping with an erection; this helps although it is not required. If used from the flaccid state a man may prefer to use a donut or conversion collar at the base of the cylinder, this ensures an effective vacuum.
4) Some men use the pump to create an erection - if for medical reasons they are unable to get an erection. If a cock ring is to be used to maintain the erection, look for the rings that sit on the end of the flask, so that when the pumping session is over it slips of easily on the base of the penis ensuring it is at it's maximum engorged state.
5) Press the cylinder against your body to keep your testicles from being pulled up into the tube, if the base of the cylinder is too wide for your erection, consider a donut ring, it fits at the base of most cylinders and helps to get an effective comfortable seal - remember the better the seal the more effective the results will be. Some pumps like the Dr Joel's Set feature an extra wide cylinder specifically designed to suck in the testicles as well to enlarge them too, some men expand their testicles to very large proportions.
6) The important thing to remember is to take it slow and gradual. Increasing the pressure too rapidly will cause bruising, bruising will manifest itself on the penis in the form of a love-bit looking bruise, it is harmless, but it means that you have overdone it slightly.
7) If you do bruise it usually goes away after a day or so, unless over use of steroids may prolong a bruise. Never pump to the point of pain. If it becomes at all painful, release some of the pressure. Pump it up until you're at the highest vacuum level you can comfortably obtain. Leave it on for a while, watch television, read a book.
8) How long for? Pump sessions should last 20 to 30 minutes during the first week. Increase the sessions 5 to 10 minutes each week, until you reach a pumping time of one hour per session. Never increase the pressure to an uncomfortable level. Rome was not built in a night and like all good body builders the more gradual the process of penis enlargement the better and more effective the results. Most men are amazed at the size increases that are possible.
8) Some companies sell solid cylinders, where you are unable to see the size of your penis or gauge the efficacy of the pump. We do not stock these models, if you can't see your penis, you're unable to monitor progress, or see if there is any discoloration. Always buy a professionally made pump and cylinder; they are more effective, comfortable and safe.
