Warnings & Cautions
Warnings
Never immerse the cleaner in water.
Keep the control panel and the
area around the cleaner clean and
dry - Water and high voltage can
cause electrical shock.
Never use alcohol, gasoline or
flammable solutions. Doing so could
cause a fire or explosion and will
void your warranty.
Never use solvents, use only
water-based solutions.

Warnings & Cautions
Warnings
Never use mineral acids. These
could damage the bath.
Never operate the cleaner with a
unvented cover.
Never place your fingers or hands into
the bath while the cleaner is operating.
(Doing so may cause discomfort
and electrical shock.)
Never touch the stainless steel
bath or cleaning solution. They
may be hot.

Warnings & Cautions
Warnings
Never allow fluid temperature
to exceed 70℃
Never use solutions containing
chlorine bleach

Warnings & Cautions
Cautions
Never operate the cleaner without
liquid in the bath.
Do change your solution regularly.
Never place parts or containers directly
on the bottom of the cleaning bath.
Use a tray or wire to suspend items.
Failure to comply may cause transducer
damage and will void warranty.
Never allow the solution to drop more
than 1Cm below the operating line with
heat or ultrasonic on.
Failure to comply may cause
transducer and/or heater damage.

What is the Ultrasonic Cleaning?
Ultrasonic cleaning is faster, more effective method for reducing the cleaning time
and cost than any other methods - scrubbing soaking, steam and so on.
Ultrasonic sound is sound transmitted at frequencies beyond the range of human
hearing. As the sound waves from the transducer radiate through the liquid in the
bath, they alternate high and low pressures in the liquid.
During the low pressure stage, millions of bubbles form and grow. This process is
called Cavitation. During the high pressure stage, the bubbles collapse, or implode,
releasing enormous amounts of energy. They work in all directions, attack every
surface and invade all recesses and openings.

Operation Method
Cleaning Methods
1. Place the cleaner on a flat surface.
2. Connect a hose to the drain at the rear side of the unit.
3. Fill the bath with water. The liquid should come to within 3Cm from the top of the bath,
considering the volume of items to be cleaned.
4. If necessary, add cleaning solution to water.
5. Plug the cleaner into its power source and turn the main power switch on at the rear side.
And press POWER button on control panel.
6. Select DEGAS by MODE button and let the unit run for 5 min. to eliminate dissolved gas in water.
7. Place the items into a tray and slowly lower the tray into the bath.
8. Select SET TIME by MODE button and set the operating time from 1 to 99 minutes by UP/DOWN
button.(You can hear the alarm sound when the cleaning is finished.)
9. Select SET TEMP by MODE button and set the temp. from ambient to 70℃ by UP/DOWN button.
10. Select BATH TEMP by MODE button and monitor the current solution temperature.
11. Select SONIC VOL by MODE button and control the ultrasonic power by UP/DOWN button.
(3 steps are available - 1, 2, 3)
12. If necessary, select SWEEP by MODE button and set the level by UP/DOWN button (This op-
tional sweep function provides an optimal distribution of cleaning power by modulation of the
frequencies / 3 levels are available - 1,2,3)
13. If the temp set is higher than the current temp of solution in the bath, the heater is on and if
lower, it is automatically off.
14. After inputting all parameters, press START button to run the unit.
15. When the cleaning is done, press STOP button and POWER button in sequence.
16. If necessary, rinse cleaned items with clean water and dry.
There are two methods of cleaning - direct and indirect.
Each has advantages and disadvantages. when in doubt, run test samples using both methods to
decide which one produces best results.
(1) Direct method
The advantages of this method are simplicity of operation and cleaning effectiveness.
ㆍAll removed soil remains in the bath.
ㆍOnly one solution can be used at a time.
ㆍHighly acidic or caustic solutions can erode the bath surface.
▶Fill the bath with warm water and cleaning solution.
▶Place the items to be cleaned in the tray and lower them into the bath.
You can also suspend items on a wire and then immerse them in the solution.
(2) Indirect method
The advantages of this method are
ㆍRemoved soil stays in the beaker or tray(solid) so you can easily examine, filter or discard it.
ㆍYou can also use one or more solutions at the same time.
ㆍCleaning solution in your bath needs to be changed less often.
▶Fill the bath with warm water and a cleaning solution.
▶Pour your solution medium into one or more beakers or into the solid tray.
▶Place the beakers in a beaker positioning cover or the solid tray to fit your cleaner.
Beakers should not touch the bath bottom.

Optimum Condition for the best results
Cleaning Solutions
Overload : Do not rest any items on the bath bottom. Weight on the bath bottom dampens
sound energy and will cause damage to the transducer.
(Use a tray and / or beaker positioning cover.)
Liquid Level : Fill the cleaner to the operating line using warm water.
Low Solution Level : When you remove heavy or bulky loads from the cleaner, the solution level
may drop below the operating line. (It may cause the heater to fail)
Flammable Solution : Never use solvents. Vapors of flammable solutions will collect under the
cleaner, where ignition is possible from electrical components.
Temperature : Approximate stabilization temperatures with ultrasonic and heat running
continuously : 50℃
Rinsing : Rinse away chemicals which adhere to items after cleaning. A highly effective method
of rinsing is using a clean water bath in your cleaner.
Cleaning : Check the bath for contamination whenever you change solution. If necessary,
remove contaminants with a nonabrasive cloth and water.
Cover : Allow the cleaner to heat up faster, to a high temperature, and avoid excessive liquid
evaporation. However, obstructing the cover vents will cause the cleaner to overheat.
Load Size : It is faster and more efficient to run several small loads rather than a few big loads.
Corrosive Solution : Never use corrosive solutions such as strong acids or powerful caustics
directly in the bath.
Heater : The heater may cause some discoloration of the bath wall. This is normal and will not
affect the performance of the unit.
Hwashin cleaner was designed to operate only with the water-based solutions and non-
flammable solutions. Water-based solutions fall into two categories - acidic and alkaline. They
include detergents, soaps and industrial cleaners designed to remove specific soils
Caution
Do not use alcohol, gasoline, bleach, mineral acids, solutions with a flash point,
semi-aqueous or combustible liquids in a bath.
Only use non-flammable solutions and water-based solutions.

Cleanion Solutions
Troubleshooting Guide
Acidic water-based solutions : remove rust, tarnish or scale.
Alkaline water-based solutions :
Mild : Light oils, greases, cutting oils, coolant compounds.
Mild to strong : Heavy greases and oil, waxes, vegetable oils, inks, milk residues.
Heavy-duty : Mill scale, heat-treat scale, corrosion or oxides.
