After unpacking the unit, inspect carefully for any
damage that may have occurred during transit.
Check for any loose, missing or damaged parts.
POWER SOURCE CONNECTION
POWER REQUIREMENTS
This product is designed to operate on a properly
grounded 120 volt, 60Hz, single-phase alternating
current (AC) power source fused with a 20 amp time
delayed fuse or circuit breaker. It is recommended that
a qualified electrician verify the ACTUAL VOLTAGE at
the receptacle into which the product will be plugged
and confirm that the receptacle is properly fused and
grounded.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS PRODUCT if the ACTUAL
power source voltage is less than 105 volts AC or
greater than 132 volts AC. Contact a qualified electri-
cian if this problem exists. Improper performance and/
or damage to the product will result if operated on
inadequate or excessive power.
CONNECT TO POWER SOURCE
Consult a qualified electrician for proper installation of
receptacle at the power source.
This product must be grounded while in use to protect
the operator from electrical shock. If you are not sure
if your outlet is properly grounded, have it checked
by a qualified electrician. Do not cut off the ground-
ing prong or alter the plug in any way and do not use
any adapters between the product’s power cord and
the power source receptacle. Make sure the POWER
switch is OFF then connect the power cord to a
properly grounded 120V, 60Hz, single phase, 20 amp
power source.
EXTENSION CORDS
For optimum performance, an extension cord should
not be used unless absolutely necessary. If neces-
sary, care must be taken in selecting an extension cord
appropriate for use with your specific product. Select
a properly grounded extension cord that will mate di-
rectly with the power source receptacle and the power
cord without the use of adapters. Make certain that
the extension is properly wired and in good electrical
condition. Extension cords must be a minimum # 12
gauge cord. Do not use an extension cord over 25 ft.
(7.6m) in length.
WHEN INSTALLING YOUR PARTS WASHER
1. Sit it on a firm, flat, level surface in a well ventilated
area and away from any open flames.
2. Fill only with a non-flammable water-based degreaser
or cleaning agent, such as Simple Green to just below
the level of the parts shelf (approximately 3 gallons).
3. Follow the degreaser manufacturer’s instructions
carefully.
4. Do not fill with flammable solvents such as kero-
sene, gasoline, etc.

cleaning liquid from the flex hose nozzle. The probable
cause is:
1. Foreign matter in the flex hose.
2. Low fluid level (not reaching the pump inlet).
3. Blocked/dirty filter.
4. Air in the pump. You can turn on and turn off the
parts washer for several times or knock on the
