CAUTION – POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:
Disconnect all utilities to washer before servicing. Do not service washer unless all utilities have been
properly locked out. Always follow local occupational health and safety regulations, as well as electric
and plumbing codes.
Allow unit to cool down before performing any service on mechanical components and on piping. Com-
ponents and piping become very hot during operation.
Inner surfaces of washer are very hot after cycle completion. Operator should wear appropriate Per-
sonal Protective Equipment (PPE) and avoid all contact with inner walls when entering chamber to
unload washer.
Pipes may be extremely hot.
When cycle is complete, partially open chamber door and allow chamber and load to cool. Hot steam
may escape through door opening if door is fully opened after a cycle.
To prevent slips, keep floor dry. Promptly clean up any spills or condensation. If spilled liquids are deter-
gents or other chemicals, follow safety precautions and handling procedures set forth on detergent or
chemical label and/or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
Always use non-foaming chemical for effective cleaning and proper pump and water level control opera-
tion. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations for amount of chemical to be used.
Always use a silicone lubricant to lubricate squeeze tubes. Petroleum-based lubricants, such as Vase-
line
®1
or grease, will cause squeeze tubes to melt.
Avoid product damage. Always select a cycle appropriate for items being processed.
Before operating unit, always position manifolded Bottle Washing Cart over central water inlet connec-
tor. If manifolded accessory is not positioned correctly, damage may result and unit will be unable to
effectively wash load.
Do not process load using Bottle Washing Cart when Automatic Floor Tilting option is activated. If Auto-
matic Floor Tilting is used, manifolded water inlet and washer will be damaged.
Remove all cellulose-type bedding from cages and pans before processing. Cellulose bedding can clog
filters and piping.
