INTRODUCTION

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION

• READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL LABELS, MSDS, AND THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE USE.

• The Industrial Aqueous Parts Cleaner is an economical, safe, and innovative system designed to clean parts, using an aqueous based solution. Aqueous solutions, when used to clean grease and oil, must be disposed of properly. Consult your local environmental management agency for additional guidance and other potentially hazardous materials compliance requirements.

• Install your parts cleaner on a flat, level surface in an area provided with adequate ventilation. Avoid repeated or prolonged breathing of vapors. Do NOT use compressed air to dry parts as this may cause a high concentration of vapors in the immediate area. Local exhaust ventilation should be used in areas of high vapor concentration. Provisions for determining and maintaining adequate ventilation are the responsibility of the operator.
  Make sure the parts cleaner is connected to a properly grounded power source. Check serial plate for power requirements.

• Do not allow parts cleaner to operate unattended.

• Complete safety in use is dependent upon proper use and handling of the parts cleaner in your workplace.

• It is important that you follow the instructions provided in this manual. If you fail to read, understand, and follow all of the procedures in this manual, you may cause or suffer personal injury.

• DO NOT OPERATE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INSIDE OF PARTS CLEANER.

CAUTION

USE ONLY WATER-BASED CLEANING SOLUTIONS DO NOT USE MINERAL SPIRITS
This equipment is designed for use only with Aqueous Based Solutions. Do NOT add any other chemicals to the cleaning agent including, but not limited to, kerosene, fuel oil, gasoline, or chlorinated solutions. The use of any other solutions could potentially cause a hazardous condition.

CAUTION

DO NOT ALLOW HEATER TO OPERATE UNATTENDED FOR LONG PERIODS,
SUCH AS EVENINGS OR WEEKENDS.
Avoid contact with eyes or skin. Wear protective eyewear, gloves, and clothing. Operation should be conducted in a manner, which prevents splashing, or spillage. Any spills should be promptly and properly cleaned up. Soak up all spills with absorbent material. Remove and dispose of all soaked material in accordance with regulatory requirements.

• This unit is NOT intended for outdoor operation.
• Do NOT leave solution-soaked rags in parts cleaner or in uncovered containers.
• Do NOT obstruct the cover. It is designed to close automatically in the event of a fire. The safety link and cover closing mechanism must be intact. Do NOT substitute with any other type of cover positioning device. Do NOT leave large objects in the parts cleaner or hang anything on the cover that could prevent the cover from closing in the event of a fire.
• Do NOT place heavy objects on edges or front of sink. Although this parts cleaner is designed to be stable, uneven weight distribution could cause a hazardous condition.
• Do NOT contaminate cleaning solutions with gasoline, alcohol or flammable liquids.
• When cleaning carburetors or other fuel supplying components: remove all gasoline into a proper disposal container before placing the component into the parts cleaner.
• Do NOT spray aerosols into or around this machine. Install the equipment in an area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Never put hot parts into the solution.
• Do NOT use compressed air to dry parts. Be sure parts, especially brake parts, are completely dry prior to reassembly.
• Turn unit “OFF” and close lid when equipment is not in use. This will reduce evaporation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Read all instructions.
2. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.
3. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or if the equipment has been dropped or damaged – until it has been examined by a qualified service person.
4. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating equal to or more than that of the equipment should be used. Cords rated for less current than the equipment may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.
5.  Always unplug equipment from electrical outlet when not in use. Never use the cord to pull the plug from the outlet. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
6. To reduce the risk of fire, do NOT operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers of flammable liquids (gasoline).
7. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use on wet surfaces or expose to rain.
8. Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
9. ALWAYS WEAR PROPER PPE
10. Do NOT operate any electrical equipment inside sink or vat.
11. Do NOT use light bulbs rated over 40 watts.
12. Do NOT smoke, eat or drink in the work area.
