How much oil can I put into the SmartWasher
®
at a time?
As with all parts cleaners, excessive greases, oils and
uids should be disposed of prior to washing parts. The
SmartWasher
®
can handle large, tough, dirty jobs, but was not
designed to be – nor should be treated as – a waste oil dump.
Can I use other uids in my SmartWasher
®
?
The SmartWasher
®
parts washing system has been
developed to work effectively as a whole: SmartWasher
®
,
OzzyJuice
®
and OzzyMat
®
. Other solutions may damage the
machine or kill Ozzy
®
, thereby eliminating the advantages
of the SmartWasher
®
. The use of other solutions in the
SmartWasher
®
will void the warranty.
Can the SmartWasher
®
overheat if the
OzzyJuice
®
gets low?
NO. The heater is automatically de-activated when the “add
uid light” indicator light is illuminated. While the pump will
continue to operate, the heater will not be reactivated until (1)
entire 5 gallon container of OzzyJuice
®
is added to the system
and the “add uid light” indicator light is off.
Can I simply add water to the SmartWasher
®
to
adjust the uid level?
NO. Adding water will dilute the OzzyJuice
®
, severely
impacting its performance.
How often do I add OzzyJuice
®
to the
SmartWasher
®
?
The SmartWasher
®
comes equipped with an “add uid light”
which illuminates when you are low on uid. When this light is
on simply add (1) 5 gallon container of OzzyJuice
®
to bring the
uid level up to normal. On average, with normal use, you will
add (1) 5 gallon container of OzzyJuice
®
approximately every six
to eight weeks.
How quickly can Ozzy
®
break down oil and
grease?
Once activated, the Ozzy
®
(s) are constantly eating. Assuming
the system is operating optimally (OzzyJuice
®
temperature
between 105°F - 115°F and the OzzyMat
®
routinely changed
a minimum of once every 30 days) the rate at which the
hydrocarbons can remediate can approach 80% every seven
days. Analyses performed on samples of used OzzyJuice
®
from operating SmartWasher
®
systems consistently show
oil and grease levels in the 1,400 parts per million range. BY
COMPARISON, used, non-bioremediating, aqueous cleaners
can average over 20,000 parts per million of oil and grease.
How often do I change the OzzyMat
®
?
At least once a month. This simple act accomplishes three
things: First, it keeps trapped contaminants from reaching
inappropriate levels. Secondly, Ozzy
®
microbes are introduced
into the SmartWasher
®
system through the OzzyMat
®
. Every
time you change the OzzyMat
®
you introduce fresh Ozzy
®
(s)
to the existing microbe colony which keeps the system
working at an optimum level. Finally, changing the OzzyMat
®
keeps sludge from building up in the base of the unit. If the
OzzyMat
®
is not changed regularly and allowed to become
clogged, large contaminants can ow into the reservoir via
the overow holes in the sink, potentially causing sludge to
build up.
Does anything kill Ozzy
®
?
YES. Any biocides designed to kill microbes, such as bleach
and Lysol
®
, will kill Ozzy
®
; chemicals that kill living things like
some strong pesticides and rat poison may be harmful to
Ozzy
®
.
How do I dispose of the OzzyMat
®
?
In many areas the OzzyMat
®
can be disposed of in a non-
leaching, sealed manner, and disposed of as solid waste. But
it must always be disposed of in accordance with the National,
State or local regulations.
What do I do if the OzzyMat
®
clogs up quickly
with grease?
The FL-4 OzzyMat
®
has 4 layers intended to be peeled away
weekly, which helps eliminate unnecessary clogging. You
need to make sure you are peeling away the individual layers
on a weekly basis. Change the entire OzzyMat
®
on the 4th
week OR every month. Make sure to remove any excess
grease, dirt and debris from dirty parts prior to washing.
Is there a warranty for the SmartWasher
®
?
The SmartWasher
®
is warranted against defects for one year.

section of this manual or visit smartwasher.com.
