OPERATION
1. Set a standard 5-gallon bucket onto a clean, protected work

capacity.
2. Place the pump in the
bottom of the bucket
with the intake facing
the center, and cord
closest to the wall of
the bucket. Press the
top of the pump to
establish suction.
3. Fill the bucket with the
desired amount of cleaning
solution; the pump must be
completely submerged in
order to operate.
4. Place the washing basin onto
the top of the bucket, so that
the power cord and hose
feed through the slotted point
on the basin. If the hose is
pinched, the parts washer will
not operate.
5. Set the cleaning brush into the basin.
6. Plug the pump into a
grounded, GFCI protected

the pump. Clean the pump, washer and hose after use.
Dispose of used cleaning solution in accordance with
Federal/State/Local laws.

After each use, check the pump intake. If the intake becomes
dirty and clogged, performance will diminish and may cause
malfunction. To clean the pump, you can remove the casing
over the intake. Ensure all parts are securely attached before
attempting to operate.

Store the portable parts washer in an upright position and in
a clean, dry area. Do not store near flammable items or open
flames.
