WULKAN TURBO WASHING CONCENTRATE
It is the non-foaming, biodegradable washing agent specially designed and manufactured for the KART Company and
used for improving the quality of washing operation. Apart from the components that dissolve various types of dirt and
grease deposited on the tyre and rim, the concentrate also contains the agent used for dishwashing machines; this
preparation additionally makes the rim shiny. Using the washing concentrate also helps keep the washing machine
clean, since it prevents dirt from sticking to the washing chamber walls, thus making the washer cleaning operation
much easier. The concentrate is to be diluted in the proportion of 1:100. Therefore, for 300 litres of water it is enough to
add 3 litres of concentrate. The quantity of the washing concentrate delivered with the washer as standard equipment
(30 litres) is enough to wash about 10000 wheels. When topping up the water during washer operation, it is important
not to forget adding the respective quantity of concentrate. The washing concentrate is the optional washing agent
recommended by the KART Company. When a proper proportion is maintained, the WULKAN TURBO concentrate
dissolves in water and then can be safely drained to the sewerage system.
TRANSPORTATION / RECEIPT / UNPACKING OF THE WASHER
The washer should be transported with particular care due to the dimensions and weight of the machine. It is
recommended to use a forklift and protective belts. To lift the washer, the fork of forklift should be inserted under the
washer from the front side; otherwise the tank bottom may be damaged. When the washer is delivered and unpacked,
first check it for possible damages during transportation and all report all irregularities to the carrier and the
manufacturer. Then remove the granulate basket and WULKAN TURBO washing concentrate from the washer.
POSITIONING THE WASHER
The washer should be positioned in such place where the operator has easy access to all its components. The room
where the washer is installed should be properly ventilated and illuminated sufficiently enough to ensure good visibility.
Moreover, the room should be heated in compliance with requirements and regulations applicable to service stations
and repair workshops. When the temperature inside the room is too low during winter season and there is a risk of
freezing of the water inside washer, drain all water from the washer. Otherwise both the pump and the tank bottom can
be damaged by ice.
Place the washer on hard concrete floor or on other hard and smooth surface. The surface should be even and stable. If
it is not possible, level the washer to avoid wobbling during operation. The washer is equipped with rubber anti-vibration
pads attached to the bottom of every foot.
The rubber anti-slipping mat should be placed on the floor in front of the washer. The mat is included in the standard
equipment of the washer. The mat protects persons against possible slipping on the scattered residuals of granulate.
