IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1
WaterStep M-100 Chlorine Generator
When using the water chlorinator, basic
safety precautions should always be
followed:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Only allow responsible adults, who are
familiar with the instructions, to operate
the chlorine generator.
3. The chlorine generator produces by-
products of liquid chlorine and sodium
hydroxide. Use caution when draining
the unit of these by-products. Rinse
any spills immediately.
4. Store these by-products in bottles that
are not used for drinking. Using a
permanent marker, clearly mark the
bottles “Chlorine” and “Sodium
Hydroxide,” respectively. Also write,
in large words, “POISON - DO NOT
DRINK.” These by-products can be
harmful or fatal if swallowed.
5. The side of the chlorine generator
labeled CHLORINE produces chlorine
gas when the unit is operated as
instructed.
Do not open the fill tube
and breathe the fumes.
6. When draining and rinsing the chlorine
generator, be careful not to spill
chlorine or sodium hydroxide on your
skin or clothes, or splash it in your
eyes. It is recommended you wear
eye protection.
7. To protect against shock, never place
tools on/near the 12-volt battery.
8. Do not leave the chlorine generator
running unattended.
9. Avoid over-chlorinating the water
by testing chlorine level frequently
as instructed in this manual. If the
water is over-chlorinated, add water
to dilute the chlorine to 5 PPM (parts
per million).
10. Do not operate below the minimum
fill line to avoid damaging the unit!
11. SEE WARNINGS ON PAGE 2.
