INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Supplies required: (not provided by Acorn)
1. Wall fastener anchors, washers and bolts for eyewash
assembly.
(Machine threads or lag bolts based on construction.)
2. Pipe sealant or Teflon tape for sealing water
connections.
IMPORTANT: FLUSH WATER SUPPLY LINES PRIOR
TO CONNECTION TO SAFETY EQUIPMENT.
NOTES:
— Top of spray nozzles must be between 33”- 45” from
finished floor in order to meet ANSI Z358.1
— Use hand tools and wrenches in a manner which will
prevent marring finished surfaces. Strap wrenches or
tools with plastic jaw linings are highly recommended.
— Refer to Rough-in for location of supply and drain lines.
— Fragments of Teflon tape or pipe sealant residue can
interfere with the proper operation of this unit. Ensure
pipe sealant methods do not cause contamination in the
system.
STEP ONE: MOUNTING
1. Position assembly on wall at appropriate height and in
proximity to the supply and drain lines.
2. While holding the assembly level against the wall, mark
position of mounting bolt holes.
3. Remove assembly and install appropriate anchors into
wall to receive 3/8” diameter bolts (supplied by others).
4. Re-position assembly against wall and install 3/8” bolts
to secure the assembly to the wall.
5. Assemble activation rod to valve bracket and secure
with nut. See detail “A”.
6. Assemble activation paddle to activation rod and secure
with provided screws. See Detail “B”
STEP TWO: SUPPLY LINE
1. Install water line (Supplied by others), in a position, to
align with ½” ball valve as shown in Rough- in.
2. Make connection to ½” NPTF ball valve with appropriate
fittings (Supplied by others)
3. Open water supply.
4. Test for leaks, proper operation and flow.
STEP THREE: SIGNAGE & INSPECTION
1. Position sign with clear visibility, in close proximity to
safety equipment and mark mounting hole locations.
2. Select appropriate ¼” anchors, screws and washers
(Supplied by others) to install signage.
3. Attach inspection tag supplied, with plastic zip tie.
NOTE:
REFER TO ANSI 2358.1 FOR SIGNAGE AND LIGHTING
REQUIREMENTS.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Employees who work with hazardous materials should
become familiar with the location and operation of the
nearest emergency plumbing fixture. Emergency plumbing
fixtures stations are simple to use and require hands free
operation once the station is activated. Regular instruction
regarding proper care and use will increase confidence
that the units are accessible and function properly.
The route and area surrounding the Eye/Face Wash
should be clear and unobstructed; the sooner eyes are
flushed, the less likelihood of damage. Eye/Face Wash
stations should be located in close proximity to the hazard
and take no more than 10 seconds to reach. In the case of
sever eye contamination the victim may require assistance
to the Eye/Face station and help flushing their eyes.
Safety plumbing fixture equipment should be operated
weekly for a period long enough to verify operation, clear
the supply line of any sediment build-up and minimize
microbial contamination due to sitting water.
1. To start the Eye/Face, push activation paddle from the
horizontal to vertical fully “ON” position. Flushing should
start, popping the spray nozzle caps open.
2. Lower both eyes into flow. Both eyes should be flushed
to prevent contamination from one eye from being
delivered to unaffected eye. Personnel who wear
contact lenses should remove them immediately prior to
or during the flush to prevent the contamination from
remaining against the cornea possibly causing
unnecessary damage or pain.
3. Using thumb and forefingers, fully open eyelids and
flush eyes thoroughly for approximately 15 minutes or
until medical personnel arrive. Be prepared to let the
doctor know what type of contamination has entered the
eye.
4. When finished return the push paddle to the horizontal
or fully “OFF” position. Flushing fluid should stop. Once
flushing fluid has stopped flowing, return spray nozzle
lids to the closed position to protect from airborne
contaminates.
MAINTENANCE GUIDE:
Maintain and inspect in accordance with ANSI Z358.1
1. Check for obvious signs of wear, broken or defective
equipment. Re-paint if necessary. Replace missing or
defective equipment such as broken push paddles,
missing signs and inspection tags.
2. Remove strainer and washout any debris collected
–replace as required.
3. Operate Eye/Face Wash nozzles using the push paddle
to place ball valve in the fully “ON” position checking for
smooth operation of valve push paddle mechanism at
the same time ensuring that the Eye/Face spray nozzle
caps pop off immediately when actuated. If the ball
valve does not operate smoothly check the actuating
assembly for binding or missing parts. If the Eye/Face
spray nozzle caps do not pop off immediately when
actuated check for correct supply inlet pressure.
4. While in operation, inspect spray nozzles for clogs or
debris correct or replace as required.
5. Return push paddle to vertical or fully “OFF” position
and swing back to stand by position. To prevent
Eye/Face Wash spray nozzles from becoming
contaminated, always close nozzle lids after each
use.
