We recommend non-flammable cleaning solutions
with a PH between 6 and 8, but due to the chang-
ing formulas of cleaning solutions and changing
laws and regulations, we cannot name a specific
solution for you.

Some solutions can be highly flammable and may
damage pump and motor seals, and others can
react with what you may be cleaning and produce
harmful fumes.
if you are in doubt about any aspect of your
selected solution, contact the solution manufac-
turer or refer to its Materials Safety Data Sheet

Extension Cords

We do not recommend using extension cords, but
if you find it absolutely necessary:

Use at least a 16 gauge cord that does not
exceed 50 feet in length!

The extension cord must have a ground wire
and plug pin.

A qualified electrician MUST size cords over
50 feet long to prevent pump motor damage.

USE this parts washer with caution and

respect. Always consider safety first, as it

applies to your individual working condi-

tions. No list of safety guidelines can be

complete—every shop environment is dif-

ferent. failure to follow safety guidelines

could result in serious personal injury or

death.

This parts washer is designed to store

cleaning solutions. During storage, some

liquids can grow dangerous microbes, or

due to the collection of toxic metal and

contaminants from the items being washed,

the fluid can become a very poisonous

solution to humans and animals.

equipment when handling sharp workpieces

to prevent cuts, infections, and poisoning.
