Safe Operating Environment

Safe operation requires an appropriate operating environment for both the operator and the machine. If questions regarding safety arise, contact the manufacturer immediately.

Environmental Conditions

• Ambient Temperature. Water in machine will

freeze at temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or below.

Temperatures above 120°F (50°C) will result in more frequent motor overheating and, in some cases, malfunction or premature damage to solid state devices that are used in some models. Special cooling devices may be necessary.

Water pressure switches are affected by increases and decreases in temperature. Every 25°F (10°C) change in temperature will have a 1% effect on the water level.

• Humidity. Relative humidity above 90% may

cause machine’s electronics or motors to malfunction or may trip ground fault interrupter. Corrosion problems may occur on some metal components in machine.

If relative humidity is below 30%, belts and rubber hoses may eventually develop dry rot. This condition can result in hose leaks, which may cause safety hazards external to machine in conjunction with adjacent electrical equipment.

• Ventilation. The need for make-up air openings

for such laundry room accessories as dryers, ironers, water heaters, etc., must be evaluated periodically. Louvers, screens or other separating devices may reduce available air opening significantly.

• Radio Frequency Emissions. A filter is available

for machines in installations where floor space is shared with equipment sensitive to radio frequency emissions.

WARNING

Never operate the machine with a bypassed or disconnected balance system. Operating the machine with severe out-of-balance loads could result in personal injury and serious equipment damage.

F8112201

• Elevation. If machine is to be operated at

elevations of over 3280 feet (1000 m) above sea level, pay special attention to water levels and electronic settings (particularly temperature) or desired results may not be achieved.

• Chemicals. Keep stainless steel surfaces free of

chemical residues.

SW039

Page 8

Safety Information

DANGER

Do not place volatile or flammable fluids in any machine. Do not clean the machine with volatile or flammable fluids such as acetone, lacquer thinners, enamel reducers, carbon tetrachloride, gasoline, benzene, naptha, etc. Doing so could result in serious personal injury and/or damage to the machine.

SW002

• Water Damage. Do not spray machine with

water. Short circuiting and serious damage may result. Repair immediately all seepage due to worn or damaged gaskets, etc.

Machine Location

• Foundation. The concrete floor must be of

sufficient strength and thickness to handle floor loads generated by high extract speeds of machine.

• Service/Maintenance Space. Provide sufficient

space to allow comfortable performance of service procedures and routine preventive maintenance.

Consult installation instructions for specific details.

CAUTION

Replace all panels that are removed to perform service and maintenance procedures. Do not operate the machine with missing guards or with broken or missing parts. Do not bypass any safety devices.

SW019

Input and Output Services

• Wat er Pressure. Best performance will be

realized if water is provided at a pressure of 30 – 85 psi (2 – 5.7 bar). Although machine will function properly at lower pressure, increased fill times will occur. Water pressure higher than 100 psi (6.7 bar) may result in damage to machine plumbing. Component failure(s) and personal injury could result.

• Steam Heat (Optional) Pressure. Best

performance will be realized if steam is provided at a pressure of 30 – 80 psi (2 – 5.4 bar). Steam pressure higher than 125 psi (8.5 bar) may result in damage to steam components and may cause personal injury.

For machines equipped with optional steam heat, install piping in accordance with approved commercial steam practices. Failure to install supplied steam filter may void warranty.

• Drainage System. Provide drain lines or troughs

large enough to accommodate total number of gallons that could be released if all machines on site drained at same time from highest attainable level. If troughs are used, they should be covered to support light foot traffic.

• Powe r. For personal safety and for proper

operation, machine must be grounded in accordance with state and local codes. Ground connection must be to a proven earth ground, not to conduit or water pipes. Do not use fuses in place of circuit breaker. An easy-access cutoff switch should also be provided.

WARNING

Ensure that a ground wire from a proven earth ground is connected to the ground lug near the input power block on this machine. Without proper grounding, personal injury from electric shock could occur and machine malfunctions may be evident.

SW008

Always disconnect power and water supplies before a service technician performs any service procedure. Where applicable, steam and/or compressed air supplies should also be disconnected before service is performed.

Safety Information

DirectDrive

Machines equipped with DirectDrive require special attention with regard to operating environment.

• An especially dusty or linty environment will

require more frequent cleaning of AC inverter drive cooling fan filter and of AC inverter drive itself.

• Power line fluctuations from sources such as

uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can adversely affect machines equipped with AC inverter drive. Proper suppression devices should be utilized on incoming power to machine to avoid problems.

• A clean power supply free from voltage spikes

and surges is absolutely essential for machines equipped with AC inverter drive. Inconsistencies (peaks and valleys) in power supply can cause AC inverter drive to generate nuisance errors.

If voltage is above 230 Volt for 200 Volt installation or 460 Volt for 400 Volt installation, ask power company to correct. As an alternative, a step-down transformer kit is available from distributor. If voltage is above 240 Volt for 200 Volt installation or 480 Volt for 400 Volt installations, a buckboost transformer is required.

• Sufficient space to perform service procedures

and routine preventive maintenance is especially important for machines equipped with AC inverter drive.

Maintenance

Care of Stainless Steel

• Remove dirt and grease with detergent and water.

Thoroughly rinse and dry after washing.

• Avoid contact with dissimilar metals to prevent

galvanic corrosion when salty or acidic solutions are present.

• Do not allow salty or acidic solutions to

evaporate and dry on stainless steel. Wipe clean of any residues.

• Rub in direction of polish lines or “grain” of

stainless steel to avoid scratch marks when using abrasive cleaners. Use stainless steel wool or soft, non-metal bristle brushes. Do not use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes.

• Remove discoloration or heat tint from

overheating by scouring with a powder or by employing special chemical solutions.

• Do not leave sanitizers or sterilizing solutions on

stainless steel equipment for prolonged periods of time.

• When an external chemical supply is used, ensure

no siphoning of chemicals occurs when washerextractor is not in use. Highly concentrated chemicals can cause severe damage to stainless steel and other components with machine. Damage of this kind is not covered by manufacturer’s warranty. Locate pump below washer-extractor’s injection point to prevent siphoning of chemicals into machine.

• If stainless steel appears to be rusting the source

of the rust may actually be an iron or steel part not made of stainless steel, such as a nail or screw. Tip: Paint all carbon steel parts with a heavy protective coating. Stainless steel fasteners should be used whenever possible.
