To access the water filter, unscrew the cap found on the bottom half of the right side
panel of the machine. Use a coin for screwing and unscrewing the cap. Turning the cap
counterclockwise loosens it and turning it clockwise tightens it. The foam filter can
easily be removed and washed. We recommend washing the filter mesh after every 50
to 100 records cleaned.
When screwing the cap back into the chassis, make sure that the cap is flush with the
side panel. This assures that the cap seal will not leak.
Clean or replace the filter after every 50 to 100 cleaning cycles.
Use only distilled or demineralised water to clean records.
Limescale in tap water can have an adverse effect on cleaning and it
can leave residue onto the inner surfaces of the machine over time.
It is recommended to change the water in the tank at least once every
week or after every 30 records. This is to avoid any microbial growth.
Do not add foaming cleaning fluids to the water. Excessive amount of
foam can affect the machine's sensors.
Fill the tank with distilled water, run the degas function
and only then add the cleaning fluid. Mix the fluids
evenly by stirring them with the pipette. The suggested
quantity of cleaning fluid to use is on the label of the
fluid bottle.
If used in prescribed concentrations, the Degritter
cleaning fluids do not need to be rinsed.
Add cleaning fluid to distilled water to improve the cleaning process.
The machine will run without it, but some impurities need a detergent
to properly get rid of them.
