1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical
products. You may obtain an RCD by contacting your local Sealey stockist.
If the product is used in the course of business duties, it must be maintained in a safe condition and routinely PAT (Portable
Appliance Test) tested.
Electrical safety information, it is important that the following information is read and understood.
Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure.
Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is tted with the
correct fuse - see fuse rating in these instructions.
8DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
8DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
8DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or is
replaced immediately by a qualied electrician.
This product is tted with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug.
If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch off the electricity supply and remove from use.
Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualied electrician.
Replace a damaged plug with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug. If in doubt contact a qualied electrician.

Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection.
A cable reel with an RCD fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel
will be protected. The section of the cores of the cable is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that
the capacity of the cable reel is suitable for this product and for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the
use of 2.5mm² section cable.

23, 24).
4.5. With the legs pressed tightly against the lower shelf, tighten all the screws commencing with those attaching the shelf.
4.6. Fit one castor wheel assembly (47) to each rear leg, and one lockable wheel (46) to each of the front legs, and secure in place with a
nut (48) and washer (49) on each.
4.7. Hold the lid closed and stand the assembled unit upright. Open the lid but do not extend the lid too far.
4.8. Place the tank work shelf (42) on the two welded supports located inside the tank.

remove the supporting packing and replace the cover and tighten the screws.
4.10. Place the pump into the tank unit and pass the switch unit through the slot in the cleaning tank side. As the unit protrudes through the
slot, secure it by placing the underside lip over the edge of the tank. Attach the flexible pipe (27) to the pump.
5. OPERATION
WARNING! Wear safety clothing, eye protection and gloves and ensure you read, understand and apply the safety instructions in
Section 1.
5.1. Ensure the unit is located on a firm level surface in a well ventilated area and is switched off and unplugged from the mains power supply.
5.2. Ensure the castors are locked once in position.
5.3. Fill the tank with solvent (see below), tank capacity is 50 litres. Minimum level must cover pump inlet, approximately 40 litres. Follow the
solvent’s safety instructions on its packaging.
5.4. Plug the unit into the mains power supply and switch the unit on. The cleaning agent will flow through the flexible tube.
5.5. Place parts to be washed into the basket, or directly into the tank. Direct solvent flow onto parts. Heavily soiled items may be left to soak
before cleaning.
8DO NOT leave the unit operating unattended. Check the fluid level does not fall below the pump inlet.

IMPORTANT! The SM28 has an anti-fire device built into the unit. In the event of a fire, the lid will automatically close.
8DO NOT prop the lid open as this will prevent the automatic safety feature from operating.
When cleaning parts, ensure that nothing in the tank, including any parts basket, is in a position that would prevent the lid from closing
fully, if and when the fusible link activates.
Once actuated, the fire detection device cannot be re-used and must be replaced before further use.
