I have a tilia foodsaver mdel # 204029 --don't have a owner manual and can figure out how to pull a vaccuum

Question edited for clarity.

That number appears to be a Serial Number which doesn't aid finding manuals. However, the manual is here

We have 1 Tilia foodsaver manual available for free PDF download: Instruction Manual. Tilia foodsaver Instruction Manual (28 pages).
