Warnings – Do's and Don'ts
B
efore using your ultrasonic cleaner, please read and thoroughly understand these warnings.
Failure to follow them may result in serious personal injury or property damage.
To avoid electrical shock:
• Do keep the control panel and the area around the cleaner clean and dry - wipe up solution
which spills over the tank brim. Water and high voltage can cause electrical shock.
• Don't operate the cleaner without proper grounding.
• Don't remove the grounding prong on the line cord plug.
• Don't disassemble your cleaner - high voltage inside the cleaner is dangerous.
• Don't immerse the cleaner in water.
To prevent personal and/or property damage:
• Use only non-flammable, non-combustible water-based solutions. Don't ever use alcohol,
gasoline or flammable solutions. Do not use any solution that has a flash point. Using
flammable or combustible solutions may result in a fire and severe burns.
• Always wear protective clothing; face shield and waterproof gloves and apron, when handling
cleaning solutions. Thermal and chemical burns may result from splashed or spilled
chemicals.
• Always add chemicals to water. Never add water to chemicals. Adding water to chemicals
may result in violent reactions that splash hot chemicals and can cause thermal or chemical
burns.
• Never pick up a solution filled tank. Splashing may cause thermal or chemical burns.
• Do not overfill the tank. The tank may flood when large parts are inserted and cause thermal
or chemical burns.
• Don't touch the stainless steel tank or cleaning solution - they may be hot.
• Don't place your fingers or hands into the tank while the cleaner is operating. Doing so may
cause discomfort and possible skin irritation. Avoid contact with solutions and provide
adequate ventilation.
• Don’t use solutions containing chlorine bleach.
To prevent damage to the cleaner:
• Do change your solution regularly.
• Don't ever use solutions that could attack stainless steel.
• Don't operate the cleaner dry.
• Don't place parts or containers directly on the bottom of the cleaning tank; use a wire basket
or wire to suspend items. Failure to comply may cause transducer damage and will void your
warranty.
• Don't allow the solution to drop more than 4 inches below the top with heat or ultrasonics on.
Failure to comply may cause transducer and/or heater damage and will void your warranty.
• Do not use corrosive solutions such as bleaches, strong acids or powerful caustics in
ultrasonic tanks. They may damage the tank. Using prohibited solutions will void the
warranty.
