TIP 

Use separate wash baskets and wash buckets to preserve 

part color and quality. Maintain separate equipment to meet 
biocompatibility requirements.

4. REFILL WITH FRESH IPA

Use the siphon pump or pour from a container of fresh IPA to refill the 
wash bucket between the minimum and maximum fill lines.

5. INSTALL THE INNER LID

Align the front edge of the inner lid with the wash bucket’s edge, then 
lower the lid directly onto the top of the bucket.

Changing the IPA

1. REMOVE THE WASH BUCKET AND INNER LID 

Start with the outer lid open, the platform mount raised, and the basket 
removed. Lift the wash bucket forward and upward to remove it from 
the base. Set the wash bucket on a clean, stable surface, then lift to 
remove the inner lid.

2. USE THE SIPHON PUMP

 

With the wash bucket elevated, 
insert the rigid tube into the 
saturated IPA and the flexible 
tube into the used IPA storage 
vessel. Squeeze the siphon 
pump’s handle several times. 
Hold and gradually release the 
pump when IPA begins moving 
through the pump.

3. CLEAN THE WASH BUCKET

Optional – For the cleanest wash, 

rinse the wash bucket with IPA 
and wipe with a paper towel.
