Warning
Do not immerse the cleaner in water.
Unplug the cleaner from the power source.
Draining Your Cleaner
2L, 3L, 4L, and 6L models
do not have a drain
.
To empty, use the side of the rim to
pour the used solution into a waste disposal unit, rinse the tank thoroughly and refill with
new solution.
Optimizing Your Cleaner
Cleaning
- check the tank for contamination whenever you change solution. If
necessary, remove contaminants with a nonabrasive cloth and water.
Emptying
- always unplug the cleaner before emptying the tank. Empty the solution into
a waste disposal unit.
Filling
- always unplug the line cord before filling the tank. Fill the cleaner to the
operating level (one inch from the top with beaker/tray in place), using warm tap water.
Low solution level
- will cause the cleaner to fail. When you remove heavy or bulky
loads from the cleaner, the solution level may drop below the operating level. If so, be
sure to replace lost solution and degas, if necessary, depending on the amount used.
Overload
- do not rest any items on the tank bottom. Weight on the tank bottom
dampens sound energy and will cause damage to the transducer. Instead, use a tray
and/or beaker positioning cover to support all items. Allow at least one inch between the
tank bottom and the beaker or receptacle for adequate cavitation.
Covers
- allow the cleaner to heat up to a higher temperature, faster and reduces
excessive liquid evaporation.
Heater
- the heater may cause some discoloration of the tank wall. This is normal and
will not affect the performance of the unit.
Solution
- the fastest method to heat your cleaner is to fill with warm solution, use heat,
ultrasonics (which also adds heat), and a cover.
Solution activity
- the amount of visible activity is not necessarily related to optimum
cavitation for cleaning.
Degassing
- fresh solutions contain many dissolved gases (usually air), which reduce
effective ultrasonic action. Although solutions will naturally degas over time. Solutions
that have been sitting unused for 24 hours or longer have reabsorbed some gases.
