Remove all parts from the carton and from inside the tank. IMPORTANT! You must remove the transit bolt from the lid stay(fig.1) as the fire safety mechanism will not work if the bolt remains in place. Lay clean cardboard on the floor to protect the tank paint work and carefully turn the tank upside down whilst holding the lid closed. Assemble legs to the brackets on the bottom of the tank with screws and hex nuts, (hand tight only). Set the lower shelf among the four legs and fix with screws and hex nuts. Level the shelf and tighten screws. Now tighten the leg screws and carefully turn assembled unit up correct way onto its legs whilst holding the lid closed. Position unit according to safety instructions in Section 1. Open lid and place the pump control box through the rectangular hole on the side of tub. Screw the 90° connector into the welded bolt on pump housing, then fit the flexible tube to the 90° connector. Place the work shelf onto the welded supports inside the tank. Check that the tank drain plug is correctly inserted and tightened. Place the parts basket on work shelf. Check your installation to ensure the unit is ready for connecting to the air supply.

5. AIR SUPPLY

5.1. Ensure that the tank air valve is closed before

connecting the air supply.

5.2.. An air pressure of 90psi and an available

air volume of 6cfm will be required to

operate the unit.

WARNING! Ensure air supply is clean and

does not exceed 90psi. Too high an air

pressure and/or unclean air will shorten

the product life due to excessive wear,

and may be dangerous, causing possible

damage and/or personal injury. Air supply must be equipped with regulator, water trap

fig.2

and oiler.

5.3. Drain the air supply tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the unit.

5.4. Clean the air supply filter weekly. For recommended hook-up, see fig.2 above.

5.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose internal diameter

should be 10mm and fittings must have the same internal dimension.

5.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.

5.7.. The air inlet connection is 1/4″BSP.

6. OPERATION

WARNING! Read and apply Section 1 safety instructions before using the cleaning tank.

6.1. Check the air regulator valve (fig 3.1) is off, and air inlet (fig.3.2) is disconnected from the air supply.

fig.3

6.2. Fill the tank to appropriate capacity (See specifications) with Sealey solvent, or a general

purpose degreaser (contact your local dealer for supply). DO NOT use any other type of

solvent.

WARNING Ensure you follow any instructions provided with the solvent.

6.3.. Connect washer to the air supply, aim flexible nozzle (fig.3.3) into tank and turn valve (fig.3.1)

on. Check that solvent flows freely through the flexible nozzle.

6.4 Place parts to be cleaned into the cleaning basket. Direct spray nozzle onto parts.

Ensure any splash back stays inside the tank, if not reposition the spray nozzle. Adjust the air

flow valve (fig.1.1) so that the minimal amount of output is generated according to the task.

6.5. The supplied brush may be attached to the nozzle to assisted cleaning if required.

6.6. For stubborn and ground in marks, leave the parts to soak in the bottom of the tank.

Place the turbo nozzle (fig.3.7) in the solvent and turn the turbo mode valve (fig.3.5) on. This

will agitate the solvent and assist cleaning.

6.7. When parts are clean, turn off the pump and leave the parts to drain in the basket or on

the shelf.

6.8.. To assist drying the air blow gun (fig.3.4) may be used.

6.9. When complete turn the washer off and disconnect from the air supply.

When cleaning parts ensure that nothing in the tank, including any parts basket, is in a position that would prevent the lid from

closing fully if a the fusible link activates.

7. SOLVENT REPLACEMENT

WARNING! It is operator’s responsibility to ensure that there is no uncontrolled discharge of any fluids used with this unit and that appropriate arrangements have been made for correct disposal of waste in accordance with government/local authority regulations.
WARNING! Disconnect the air supply from the unit before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance. WARNING! Wear approved safety gloves, goggles, mask and suitable clothing. 7.1. To empty used solvent, loosen sediment in the bottom of the tank by use of the turbo mode, then open base plug to drain.
Drain dirty solvent into an appropriate receptacle. Clean the inside of tank and strainer before refilling with clean solvent. 7.2. Store the used solvent in accordance with regulations. 7.3 Wipe up any spillage immediately.
