Step 1–
Remove your new
Para-Therapy
unit from its packaging and place unit on
a suitable level surface like a sturdy tabletop or countertop. Remove
stainless steel cover and remove any accessories and literature from
inside of tank.
NOTE: DO NOT PLUG UNIT IN UNTIL STEP 2 IS COMPLETED!
Step 2–
Add paraffin to unit. For Model PT-6-S add six (6) one pound bags of
genuine
Para-Therapy
paraffin chips and for Model PT-18-S add eighteen
(18) one pound bags of paraffin chips. Chips sometimes melt together
during shipment but can be easily separated when putting in unit. (Note: If
you are using paraffin by others and it is not in chip form, but one pound
bars, make sure each bar is placed individually into unit so they come in
contact with the bottom of the tank so they will melt properly.)
Step 3–
Your
Para-Therapy
unit is now ready to plug in. When unit is plugged in, the
indicator light on the front of unit will come on indicating unit is under power. The
six pound unit will take 4 to 5 hours and the eighteen pound unit will take 10 to
12 hours to melt all the paraffin completely. Once paraffin is completely melted
your unit is ready to use.
Operating Tips
When do I need to add Paraffin?
Add paraffin when the paraffin level in your tank drops below a depth of 3”. Using
unit without sufficient paraffin in the tank can cause major temperature fluctuations
in the paraffin bath.
Why is there foreign material on the bottom of the tank?
The material on the bottom of the tank is contamination such as dirt or dead skin
which builds up after prolonged use or by placing used paraffin back in the unit after
treatment. When this happens, we recommend removing used paraffin, cleaning
unit and adding new paraffin.
Why is there a film of solidified paraffin on the top surface of my tank?
The paraffin has lost some of its oil through normal usage. Add paraffin oil (food
grade mineral oil) as required or replace paraffin.
