Extension Cords

We do not recommend using extension cords, but if you find it absolutely necessary:

•Use at least a 16 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length!

•The extension cord must have a ground wire and plug pin.

•A qualified electrician MUST size cords over 50 feet long to prevent pump motor damage.

Selecting a Solvent

This heavy-duty welded steel parts washer has a 20 gallon work-space volume, but is designed to hold a maximum of 10 gallons of liquid. Do not overfill. Not every cleaning solution is safe to use in your parts washer. NEVER USE GASOLINE, KEROSENE, FUELS, STRIPPERS, OR ACIDS OF ANY KIND IN THIS PARTS WASHER.

We recommend non-flammable cleaning solutions with a PH between 6 and 8, but due to the chang- ing formulas of cleaning solutions and changing laws and regulations, we cannot name a specific solution for you.

Some solutions can be highly flammable and may damage pump and motor seals, and others can react with what you may be cleaning and produce harmful fumes.

If you are in doubt about any aspect of your selected solution, contact the solution manufac- turer or refer to its Materials Safety Data Sheet

Model G4013 20-Gallon Parts Washer

(MSDS) information, which often can be found on the internet also. It is your responsibility to select a safe solution.

Never run this parts washer if the tank is empty or if the filter is clogged. If you do, pump damage will occur.

Operation

Use the switch to turn on the pump and spray fluid from the nozzle. Parts may also be dunked or soaked in the solvent and cleaned with a brush.

BIOLOGICAL and POISON

HAZARD!

This parts washer is designed to store cleaning solutions. During storage, some liquids can grow dangerous microbes, or due to the collection of toxic metal and contaminants from the items being washed, the fluid can become a very poisonous solution to humans and animals.

USE the correct personal protection equipment when handling sharp workpieces to prevent cuts, infections, and poisoning.

FOLLOW OSHA, EPA, and the fluid manufacturer's requirements to properly dispose of cleaning liquids when it becomes time to change the liquid.

Use this parts washer with caution and respect. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working condi- tions. No list of safety guidelines can be complete—every shop environment is dif- ferent. Failure to follow safety guidelines could result in serious personal injury or death.
