Safety Precautions

Before using your Ultrasonic Cleaner, please read and thoroughly
understand these safety precautions. Failure to follow them may result
in serious personal injury or property damage.

To avoid electrical shock:

• Do unplug from power source before filling or emptying the tank.

• Do keep the switches and the area around the cleaner clean and dry -

- wipe up solution which spills over the tank brim. Water and high
voltage can cause electrical shock.

• Do not operate the cleaner without proper grounding.

• Do not remove the grounding prong on the line cord plug.

• Do not disassemble your cleaner -- high voltage inside the cleaner is

dangerous.

• Do not immerse the cleaner in water.

To prevent personal and/or property damage:

• Do use water-based solutions.

• Do not ever use alcohol, gasoline or flammable solutions. Doing so

could cause a fire, explosion, or serious personal injury and will void
your warranty. Use only water-based solutions.

• Do not ever use mineral acids. These could damage the tank.

• Do not touch the stainless steel tank or cleaning solution -- they may

be hot.

• Do not allow fluid temperature to exceed 80ºC (175ºF).

• Do not place your fingers or hands into the tank while the cleaner is

operating. Doing so may cause discomfort and possible skin irritation.
Avoid contact with solutions and provide adequate ventilation.

• Do not use solutions containing chlorine bleach.

1 Safety Precautions

To prevent damage to the cleaner:

• Do change your solution regularly.

• Do not operate the cleaner dry.

• Do not place parts or containers directly on the bottom of the cleaning

tank; use a tray, wire hook or other device to suspend items. Failure
to comply may cause transducer damage and will void your warranty.

• Do not allow the cleaning solution level to drop more than one inch

below the top of the tank with heat or ultrasonics on. Failure to
comply may cause transducer and/or heater damage and will void
your warranty.
