• Thread the Flexible Metal “Gooseneck” Fluid Outlet
Tube onto the Pump Outlet Fitting (Fig A).
• Place the Parts Cleaning Tray over the ledges on the
walls of the tub. Make sure the Nozzle of the Flexible
Metal “Gooseneck” Fluid Outlet Tube is shaped to be
facing in and downward toward the center of the Tub
(Fig B).
• Fill unit with suitable, water-based degreasing
solution suffi ciently to cover the entire Pump (approx.
1.5 gallons) (Fig C).
Important Notes:
- Follow degreasing solution mixing, usage and safety
label instructions carefully before using.
- Be sure the cleaning solution level fully covers the
Pump or it will not function properly.
• Plug power cord into an approved, grounded and GFI
equipped 120 Volt AC, 60hz. outlet.
• Turn Power Switch to the “On” position. The Parts
Washer is now ready for use.

suitable parts cleaning brush to remove stubborn
deposits.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Unplug unit and inspect the pump intake grill after
every hour of cleaning (Fig D). Clean more often if
removing excessively heavy deposits of grease and
grit. Important Note:
Failure to clean pump intake will result in diminished fl
uid fl ow, cleaning effectiveness and eventual pump
motor failure.
• If it becomes apparent that the pump intake grill
requires cleaning more often, it is likely that the
cleaning solution needs to be replaced and an
accumulation of sediment from the Tub bottom needs
to be removed.
- Drain and pour drain cleaning solution into suitable
containers and dispose of properly.
• If Fluid stops fl owing or fl ows sporadically, the Pump may not be fully submersed. The Pump
must be fully under the fl uid surface level to work properly (Fig C).
• If pump intake cleaning does not restore pump performance, an accumulation of dirt and grit
may be present in the Flexible Metal “Gooseneck” Fluid Outlet Tube.
- Unplug unit and remove Flexible Metal “Gooseneck” Fluid Outlet Tube and check for
obstructions lodged in tube and remove.
