MAINTENANCE

NOTE: Follow the preservative manufacturer’s 

instructions for the proper use of water 
preservative.

INSPECT EYEWASH UNIT

1.  Visually inspect the eyewash unit weekly for 

cleanliness and proper solution level (per ANSI 

Standard Z358.1-2014).

2.  Activate the eyewash unit each time the solution is 

replaced to ensure proper operation. If the unit is not 

working properly, remove it from the hazard area and 

contact Uline immediately.

•  Check the sprayheads' water spray pattern for an 

even, continuous flow. The sprayheads are attached 

to the tray with screws and can be detached from the 

tray for cleaning or obstruction removal, if necessary, 

and reattached. Use a 9/64" hex-head Allen wrench 

to remove and reinstall the sprayheads.

•  Check the water supply hose at the basin of the 

eyewash unit for cracks, leaks or wear.

•  Check the entire unit for possible water leakage.

•  Check the solution for contamination and replace 

with fresh solution, if necessary.

CLEAN EYEWASH UNIT

When using potable water and water preservative 

(recommended):

1.  Carefully remove the eyewash tank from the 

pedestal and drain the water solution from the tank 

(dispose of the solution properly). 

2.  Clean the inside of the tank using warm water and a 

mild soap product; rinse thoroughly.

3.  Refill the eyewash tank. Follow instructions of the 

preservative manufacturer for the proper use of 

water preservative.

4.  Reinstall the eyewash tank.

When using potable water only:

1.  Empty the tank any time from once per week to 

once per month, depending on the quality of your 

water supply. The manufacturer and Uline are not 

responsible for variations in the water supply.

2.  Clean the inside of the tank using warm water and 

mild soap. Rinse the tank thoroughly with warm 

water.

3.  Refill the eyewash tank with tepid, potable water.
