Installation & Operation Manual
Manual #7109-260-001
PRELIMINARY STEPS
1. Read the installation instructions prior to beginning the installation.
2. Separate parts from packaging and verify all necessary parts are accounted for and undamaged. Obtain missing or
damaged parts from Acorn Safety prior to beginning installation.
3. Flush water supply lines prior to installation. This will remove unwanted debris from the lines and prevent unwanted
blockages in the safety equipment.
4. In order to comply with ANSI Z358.1, the safety equipment must be inspected periodically. An inspection tag is provided for
documentation purposes.
5. All employees at risk of injury/contamination should be informed and trained in the use of this and any other safety
equipment. The signage provided should be highly visible, posted in a well-lit area within the area served by the safety
station.
