Thank you for purchasing the Rozone ROwasher
The Rowasher is designed to safely and
This operating manual has been designed to give you all the information on the
Rozone ROwasher.
Please read carefully before using the machine. Familiarise yourself with this
unit`s operation, its particular features and limitations.
Should you require any further information please call our Rozone Support
Team on 0121 526 8181
The ROwasher is designed to safely and effectively
remove oil and grease from industrial and automotive
parts. It employs a clever technology called
bioremediation to dramatically reduce waste fluid
generation, reducing the expense of hazardous waste
removal and bringing significant savings to the user.
The ROwasher system comprises three distinct parts: The
ROwasher machine, the ROwash Cleaning Solution and
the ROwasher Microbe Filter Mat. The Filter Mat
contains millions of micro-organisms. It releases these
microbes into the ROwasher system to break down or
“eat” the oil and grease that has been washed off dirty
parts into the ROwash Cleaning Solution. The microbes
turn it all into harmless carbon dioxide and water,
leaving the ROwash Solution clean and strong for every
use, effectively recycling the fluid and reducing the need
for hazardous waste disposal. The ROwash Cleaning
Solution is pH neutral, non-caustic, non-flammable and a
biodegradable degreasing solution bringing health and
safety benefits to the user and assisting compliance with
latest workplace legislation.

Please wear appropriate PPE when using the machine –such as safety goggles and
protective gloves.
If the cleaning solution comes into contact with the eyes, please rinse the eyes
thoroughly with water. If swallowed please consult a doctor immediately.
4. FUNCTION
The microbes are first introduced to the system in the ROwasher Microbe Filter Mat
and are then transported by the ROwash Cleaning Fluid through the filter mat into
the ROwasher tank
The cleaning fluid in the tank is heated by the element and transported by the pump
to the sink where it is dispensed through the nozzle and flo-thru brush. The cleaning
fluid must remain heated for the microbes to function properly.
Solid dirt particles washed off parts into the sink are captured in the filter basket in
the sink tray and in the underlying ROwash Microbe Filter Mat which traps large
particles of grease and oil along with any particulate matter larger than 50 microns.
Grease and oil is washed off parts into the ROwasher tank and then degraded by the
microbes into carbon dioxide and water.

disinfectants and alkaline cleaners can deactivate the microbes and the bio-
remediation of grease and oil will be affected resulting in the ROwasher not working
properly.
Plug into the correct mains supply. To avoid damage, the machine must be plugged
into the power source stated on the machine control box label. Switch on electrical
supply
The ROwasher will begin to heat up the cleaning solution to its optimal working
temperature of 42°c. (This will take approx. 4 hours)

7. OPERATION
Cleaning is a manual operation using the flo-thru brush in the ROwasher sink top
Wear appropriate PPE such as safety goggles and protective gloves
Place the dirty parts in the sink tray (maximum weight 150kg must not be exceeded)
Press the green button to turn the pump on. Wet the sink, nozzle and brushes prior
to cleaning to prevent grease and dirt sticking to the surfaces. The pump will run for
5 minutes and then automatically switch off.
Open the tap of the desired tool –you can use both the nozzle and the flo-thru brush
at the same time for maximum cleaning if desired.
Note: Any parts susceptible to corrosion should not be left in sink after cleaning
As with all partswashers excess grease and oil should be disposed of prior to
washing. DO NOT USE THE ROWASHER AS A WASTE DUMP
Do not turn the ROwasher off unless it is for safety reasons, moving or servicing. The
optimum temperature for the activity of the microbes and therefore breakdown of
oil and grease is between 37°c and 42°c, therefore the ROwasher must always be left
switched on.
8. ENERGY SAVING MODE
After a 4 hour period of inactivity the ROwasher automatically switches to energy
saving mode (37°c) and remains at this temperature until the pump is restarted
when it will return to 42°c
