General Product Overview & Operation Information

This self-contained, stand alone four person hand wash station is designed for
use where convenient hand washing is desired or required, such as food service
locations at outdoor events or construction sites. The compact design is ideal
for areas where limited space is available and is easy to transport. Supplied
fully assembled with a simpli ed plumbing system that is easy to maintain.

TOOLS REQUIRED FOR SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE

• Rivet Gun

• Drill with 13/64” bit

• Standard slotted screwdriver

Fresh Water Plumbing

The plumbing system in this sink is simple and requires minimal maintenance.
If the system becomes plugged,  rst check the foot pumps. Depress each foot
pump and observe the level of resistance. If there is resistance and water is not
dispensed, there is most likely an obstruction in the tube or at the ori ce of the
water tap spigot. If there is no resistance and the water is not dispensed, then
either a.) a tube connection is loose or b.) an internal rubber part of the pump

needs replacing.

Drain Plumbing System

The drain system is designed to be virtually maintenance free. Each of the four
sink bowls are molded into the inner tank and the gray water drains directly
into it through the three drilled holes in the bottom of each basin. These holes
are kept small to minimize debris and foreign matter from entering the inner
holding tank.

Pump Removal

The base plate does not have to be removed for pump maintenance. The pumps
are fastened to the base plate with (4) PC-000104 - Rivets (which will have to be
drilled out to remove the pumps). Quick disconnect  ttings are used throughout
the plumbing system. To disconnect the tubing, push the ring of the  tting
toward the  tting stem while at the same time pulling out on the tubing.

Service / Maintenance Information

Filling with Fresh Water

Unscrew the 1” plug located in the top corner of the sink. Insert a standard 1”
garden or similar type hose and  ll with a few gallons of fresh water to perform
a system check. Depress each pump a few times to “prime” them (the pumps
have built-in check valves that will hold a prime between uses). Continue  lling to
the 20 gallon water level capacity (which should take approximately  ve minutes
with a standard garden hose and normal water pressure). The tank is full when
you can view the water level in the 1” hole. Tighten the plug when  nished.

Emptying Fresh Water

Drain the fresh water by unscrewing the 1/2” plug located at the bottom of the
sink. Tighten the plug when  nished.

Emptying Gray Water

NOTE: Certain geographical areas prohibit “dumping” of gray water and re­quires proper disposal. Unscrew the 3” cap located in the top corner of the sink

to pump out the gray water. Tighten the cap when  nished.

Access Inner Plumbing / Spigot Replacement

Drill out the (8) PC-000117 - Star Rivets that attach the outer tank to the inner
tower. Drill out the (8) PC-000104 - Rivets located at the spigots. Pull out the
spigots with elbows attached approximately 5”. Disconnect the tubing by
pushing the ring on the  tting toward the  tting stem while at the same time
pulling out on the tubing. To reattach the spigots, we recommend using PC-
000104 - Rivets with PC-000106 - Back-up Washers on the stems of the rivets.
To remove the paper towel holder, drill out the (4) PC-000105 - Bulbex Rivets
located inside the dispenser.

packs) and feed the  rst towel through the slots in the bottom of the towel
holder body.

Soap Dispensers

Open the soap dispenser by placing your hands on
both sides of the dispenser and pressing up on the tabs
of the lid. Locate the tab on the mounting plate at the
rear of the dispenser and push in on it and slide the dis­penser up and o . Fill with 30  uid ounces of liquid
soap. Refasten it to the mounting plate and snap the
lid back on. Repeat for the other three dispensers.
