Listing of Warnings, Cautions and Symbols Uncrating/Installation Instructions P-920012-041
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.
WARNING - LACERATION AND/OR 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.
Door lifts at high speed; keep your head, hands, or fingers away from door opening.
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/RESET 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.

P-920012-041 Uncrating/Installation Instructions Listing of Warnings, Cautions and Symbols
WARNING - CHEMICAL BURN AND/OR EYE INJURY HAZARD:
Risk of explosion: Do not remove from pressurized lines. Do not exceed maximum temperature/
pressure specifications. Do not install/service without following installation instructions (see
sensor manual). Wear safety goggles and face shield during installation/service. Do not alter
product construction. Failure to follow safety instructions could result in severe personal injury.
WARNING - HEALTH HAZARD:
Vapors from solvents can be harmful. Use with adequate ventilation. Follow directions on the
container.
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.
