LOCATION AND INSTALLATION
MOUNT EYEWASH PEDESTAL TO WALL (OPTIONAL)
CAUTION! Eyewash station weighs 60 lbs. when
filled to capacity. Two-person installation is
recommended to safely install unit. Mounting
bracket screws and wall anchors (not included)
must be strong enough to support the filled unit.
1. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall with screws
and wall anchors (not included).
2. Attach the pedestal to the mounting bracket by the
handles on the back of the unit. (See Figure 1)
3. Check condition of gasket; ensure clamps are out of
the way.
NOTE: When mounting the eyewash unit to the
mounting bracket, make sure the unit is level
and the sprayheads are at a height of 33-45"
from the floor and situated at least 6" from the
wall or nearest obstruction (per ANSI Standard
Z358.1-2014). (See Figure 1)
FILL AND MOUNT TANK
1. Pour clean, potable, tepid water into the tank; continue
pouring until the tank is 1/3 to 1/2 full.
2. Add water preservative (S-21107, sold separately) to the
eyewash tank. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
the proper use of water preservative.
3. Add clean, potable, tepid water to the tank until the
water level reaches the fill line.
4. Insert one liner into the cap (with hole) and attach the
cap to the top of the tank. (See Figure 2)
NOTE: To ensure proper installation, the tank
should be placed on the pedestal from the front
of the unit.
5. Invert the tank and place it on top of the pedestal. The
pierce on the pedestal will puncture a hole in the cap
liner and allow solution to flow.
6. Raise the tray to snap fit in an upright position. A slight
adjustment to the position of the tank may be required
for proper level placement of the tank on the pedestal.
7. Secure the tank to the pedestal using the side tank
clamps. Make sure the latches are pulled down tight to
the pedestal. See diagram on page 1.
8. Lower the tray to activate the water flow. Allow the water
to flow until air bubbles form in the tank. Raise the tray
and snap closed in the upright position. The system is
now ready for use.
NOTE: After the tank is mounted to the pedestal,
minor spillage may occur. Allow the fluid to
stabilize completely before inspecting the unit
for leaks.
