The following is a listing of the safety precautions which must be observed when uncrating, and installing equipment. WARNING indicates the potential for danger to personnel and CAUTION indicates the potential for damage to equipment. These precautions are repeated, where applicable, throughout the instructions.

WARNING - PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD:

When moving the unit, use a forklift. Do not use door(s) or door handle(s) for lifting.

When removing manual door counterweight support(s), leave chamber door(s) closed to prevent counterweight(s) from dropping.

WARNING - LACERATION/EYE INJURY HAZARD:

When removing bands, wear gloves and eye protection, and always use a tool specifically designed to cut the bands. The bands used to secure this carton can cause personal injury when cut and tension is released.

WARNING - LACERATION HAZARD:

When removing bolts, wear gloves to protect your hands.

WARNING - PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD:

The chamber door is heavy. Lifting it manually may require two people.

WARNING - BURN HAZARD:

When checking the automatic stop feature, wear gloves and face protection and open chamber door slowly. Hot water/steam may be sprayed through door opening if door is opened during a cycle.

Except for emergency, do not open door when cycle is in progress. In an emergency, first stop cycle by pressing the STOP touch pad and wait for water flow to stop. Wear protective gloves and face shield whenever reaching into chamber.

WARNING - FALL HAZARD:

To prevent falls, keep floors dry. Promptly clean up any spills or drippage.

Listing of Warnings, Cautions and Symbols

Uncrating/Installation Instructions

P-122996-649

CAUTION - POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:

After utilities are connected to equipment, slowly remove the protective adhesive paper from the exterior cabinet panels to reduce the level of static discharge.

When removing adhesives from stainless steel, use a small amount of non-flammable cleaning solvent. Rub in a back-and-forth motion (in same direction as surface grain). Solvent rubbed in a circular motion or applied with a wire brush or steel wool on door and chamber assemblies can be harmful to stainless steel. Do not use solvents on painted surfaces.

Once three-phase power is connected, check pump for correct rotation (indicated by arrow on pump motor). Incorrect pump rotation may result in pump damage and improper cleaning action.

Before operating unit, always position each manifold or accessory header over a manifold connector. If manifolds or accessory headers are not positioned correctly, damage may result and unit will be unable to effectively wash loads.
