WARRANTY POLICY

Ranger Products™ are backed by over 35 years of 
manufacturing experience.  Every spray wash 
cabinet bearing the Ranger™ name is sold with the 
following warranty.

  Each Ranger Product™ is warranted to be free 

  from defects in workmanship and material for a 
  period of one year from the date of shipment 
  provided that a written claim for such defect is 
 

made within that time.

  This warranty does not cover damage or defects 

 

caused by carelessness of the operator, misuse, 

 

abuse or abnormal use which in any way impairs the 

 

proper functioning of the equipment or by the use or 

  addition of parts not manufactured by Ranger 
 

Products™ or its suppliers.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY MADE IN LIEU OF 

ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR 

IMPLIED INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF 

MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A 

PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

If your Ranger Products™ machine is not functioning 
properly, call your Ranger Products™ dealer immediately.  
On some occasions, an independent contractor may be 
hired to do the repairs.  Within the warranty period, a 
customer should not hire his own contractor unless it is 
authorized in writing by Ranger Products™.

If it is necessary to return equipment for repairs, your 
dealer will so advise you.  When returning equipment for 
repairs, empty and thoroughly clean out the tank, see 
that machines are properly crated and protected, and 
prepay transportation.

Defective parts replaced at no charge must be returned 
to your dealer or Ranger Products™ within 60 days of the 
date that the replacement parts are shipped; otherwise, 
you must pay for the replacement parts at the current 
selling price.

PRECAUTIONS / DANGERS

Read this entire manual before attempting to install your 
Ranger Products™   parts washer.  

  The heating element(s) and pump/motor can be 

 

damaged if the water level drops too low.  Check    

 

the water level daily.  The proper water level is when  

 

there is 1’ of water visible in the filter basket. There   

 

should always be water in the removable filter 

 

basket, but it should be below the oil skimmer slot.    

 

Clean the filter basket regularly so the water can  

 

 

return to the holding tank.

  Cleaning will be poor and the heating element(s) and 

 

pump / motor may get damaged if the machine is not 

 

cleaned according to instructions.

  Your parts washer is made with mild steel and will    

 

rust unless you use the correct detergent and follow 

 

the correct start-up procedure. Make sure the brand  

 

you are using is safe on mild steel and has an  

 

 

adequate concentration of rust inhibitors.  When  

 

 

installing the unit, don’t fill the tank unless you have   

 

the time needed to heat the water to 140-160F, add   

 

the detergent, and run the wash cycle for at least    

 

one (1) hour to coat the steel with rust inhibitor.   

 

 

Again, read this entire manual before starting the    

 

installation so that you know what is involved.  

 

(See “Chemical Selection”)

  Since laws and regulations are forever changing, and 

 

since they often vary region to region, the remarks in 

 

this section should only be construed as a general 

 

guideline. It is your responsibility to research, 

 

understand and follow the exact environmental 

 

regulations of your region.

washer.
