ASSEMBLY  

 

                               

                                         

 

Do not turn the power switch on until the Parts Washer has been completely assembled.

 Failure to do 

so could result in serious injury or electric shock.  

 
 

                               

                                        

 

Unpack product from package and review contents. Keep all packaging until product has been 
reviewed.

 

 

 

Lay clean and hard cardboard on the floor and lay machine on its lid. (Make sure you hold cover closed 
hen laying machine on its lid.) 
 
Mount four legs on brackets with M6X12 Philips head crews and M6 nuts. NOTE: DO NOT TIGHTEN. 
 
Place lower shelf between legs with flat surface up and attach to legs with M6X23 Philips head screws 
and M6 nuts. With legs pressed tight against lower shelf, tighten all screws to lower shelf. 
 
Tighten all the screws. Stand machine up, being careful to hold lid closed. 
 
Put work shelf and basket into the machine. Mount pump assembly into slot on the side of the machine 
then place filter screen in position. 
 
Plug machine into standard 120 volt 60 hz grounded outlet and fill with proper amount of fluid. 
 
Turn switch on. Fluid should be flowing from the flexible spigot. 

 
OPERATION  

  

                               

                                        

 

Do not use volatile, flammable or combustible solvents, or fuels such as gasoline, diesel, or 
toluene. Use only non-corrosive water based solvents.

 

 

                               

                                       

 

The pump must be immersed in liquid while operating. Fluid should be replaced and the Parts 
Washer cleaned on a regular basis to avoid hazardous conditions.

  

 

                               

                                        

 

Chlorinated solvents such as 1-1-1 Trichloroethane and Methylene Chloride (also 
known as Methyl Chloride) can chemically react with aluminum and may explode. 

Many tools and pieces of equipment contain aluminum.  

 
Fill the body with the cleaning solution, to just below the horizontal crease on the body. 
 
Lift the cover, placing the items to be cleaned into the work basket. Then set the work basket into the 
cleaning solution. 
Plug the power cord into a power source. Turn the power switch ON. 
When the tool is cleaned, turn the power switch OFF, and unplug from the power source. 

  

Do not allow the level of liquid in the parts washer to fall below the pump inlet, as damage 
to the pump can result.
