Introduction
Choosing Your Cleaning Solution
Not every cleaning solution is safe to use in your parts
washer. NEVER USE GASOLINE, KEROSENE, FUELS,
STRIPPERS, OR ACIDS OF ANY KIND IN THIS PARTS
WASHER. We recommend non-flammable cleaning solu-
tions with a PH between 6-8, but due to the changing for-
mulas of cleaning solutions, and changing laws and regula-
tions we cannot name a specific solution for you. Some
solutions can be highly flammable and may damage pump
and motor seals, and others can react with what you may
be cleaning and produce harmful fumes.
If you are in doubt about any aspect of your selected
solution, contact the solution manufacturer or refer to
the Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) information, which
can be found on the internet. It is your responsibility to
select a safe solution.

W1759 3.5-Gallon Parts Washer
• POWER SUPPLY. This machine requires a grounded
110V power supply circuit that is rated for 15A.
• PREVENTING ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Only connect this
parts washer to a properly grounded GFCI (Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupt) receptacle. Test the GFCI
receptacle operation according to switch manufac-
turer recommended intervals.
• GROUND PRONG. Never cut off the ground prong
from the power cord in order to plug the parts wash-
er power cord into an non-grounded wall receptacle
or extension cord.
• PREVENTING FIRE. Do not fill this parts washer with
gasoline, kerosene, fuel, or flammable solvents. Do
not disconnect or modify the automatic lid closure
device in any way. Keep an appropriate class fire
extinguisher close at hand.
• SAFE USAGE. Never smoke, use a drop light, or any
other hand-held ignition source or electrical device
near the parts washer. An ignition source or electri-
cal device that falls into the cleaning solution can
cause severe burns or electrocution.
• PERSONAL PROTECTION. To prevent personal con-
tamination, always wear gloves, goggles, an apron,
and a respirator when using or changing the parts
washer liquid. Wash your hands with soap and water
after every use.
• LOCATION. Make sure that the parts washer is locat-
ed in an area with adequate ventilation to prevent a
buildup of vapors, and always keep the parts washer
away from all sources of ignition.
• SAFE STORAGE. Keep away from children and ani-
mals. Close the lid when not using the parts washer.
• MAINTENANCE. Clean or replace tank filter before
it becomes clogged, and inspect for leaks. Follow
OSHA, EPA, and the manufacturer's solution replace-
ment schedules and disposal regulations.
USE this parts washer with caution and
respect. Always consider safety first,
as it applies to your individual working
conditions. No list of safety guidelines
can be complete—every shop environ-
ment is different. Failure to follow
safety guidelines could result in serious
personal injury or death.
This parts washer is designed to store
cleaning solutions. During storage some
liquids can grow dangerous microbes,
or due to the collection of toxic metal
and contaminants from the items being
washed, the fluid can become a very
poisonous solution to humans and
animals.
USE the correct personal protection
equipment when handling sharp
workpieces to prevent cuts, infections,
and poisoning.
FOLLOW OSHA, EPA, and the fluid
manufacturer's requirements to
properly dispose of cleaning liquids
when it becomes time to change the
liquid.
