I. Introduction A. General Information Read and understand all labels, MSDS, and this instruction manual before use. The Industrial - Remote Reservoir Parts Cleaner is an economical, safe, and innovative system designed to clean parts, using a mineral spirits based solvent. This parts cleaner incorporates a " Remote Reservoir " design, which limits the loss of solvent through evaporation and also provides an additional fire safety feature. Many fire jurisdictions promote use of equipment incorporating this design feature. Check with your local fire jurisdiction for additional information. Install your parts cleaner on a flat level surface in an area provided with adequate ventilation. Avoid repeated or prolonged breathing of vapors. Use of compressed air to dry parts may cause a high concentration of vapors in the immediate area. Local exhaust ventilation should be used in areas of high vapor concentration. Provisions for determining and maintaining adequate ventilation are the responsibility of the operator. Do not allow the parts cleaner to operate unattended. Make sure the parts cleaner is connected to a properly grounded 120 volt, 60 HZ. electrical power source. This equipment is designed for use with mineral spirits based solvents with a flash point greater than 60 C. (140 F.). Use only mineral spirits based solvents. Do not use Flammable solvents. Do not add any other chemicals to the cleaning solvent including, but not limited to, kerosene, fuel oil, gasoline, chlorinated solvents, or detergents. The use of any other solvents could potentially cause a hazardous condition. Under certain conditions the solvent could burn. For your protection, a fusible link automatically closes the cover of the parts cleaner in the event that a fire occurs in the sink work area. The closed cover contains and smothers the fire inside the metal sink. Do not leave large objects in the parts cleaner or hang anything on the cover that could prevent it from closing in the event of a fire. Do not replace fusible link with any other device to hold cover up. Do not place heavy objects on edges or front of sink. Although this parts cleaner is designed to be stable, uneven weight distribution could cause a hazardous condition, over which the manufacturer has no control. Do not block drain or modify the equipment in any way. 1
B. Safety Industrial - Remote Reservoir Parts Cleaner Complete safety in use is dependent upon proper use and handling of the parts cleaner in your workplace. It is important that you follow the instructions provided in this manual. If you fail to read, understand, and follow all of the procedures in this manual, you may cause or suffer personal injury. II. Safety Instructions and information A. Fire In case of a fire: Use a Type ABC or Type BC fire extinguisher. Do not use water. Contact your local fire department. Do not use flammable solvents. This equipment is designed to be used with mineral spirits based solvents with a flash point greater than 60 C. (140 F.). Never mix other chemicals with the cleaning solvent, including but not limited to kerosene, fuel oil, gasoline, chlorinated solvents, or detergents. The use of any other solvents could potentially cause a hazardous condition. When cleaning carburetors or other fuel supplying components, remove all gasoline into a proper disposal container before placing the component into the parts cleaner. Gasoline has a lower flash point than mineral spirits solvent. If gasoline is added, the flash point of the solvent may be lowered. Do not spray aerosols into or around this machine. Install the equipment in an area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Never put hot parts into the solvent. Do not obstruct the cover. It is designed to close automatically in the event of a fire. The safety link and cover closing mechanism must be intact. Do not substitute with any other type of cover positioning device. Do not leave large objects in the parts cleaner or hang anything on the cover that could prevent the cover from closing in the event of a fire. Do not block drain or modify the equipment in any way. 2
Do not leave solvent-soaked rags in parts cleaner, wadded up on workbenches, or in uncovered containers. Soak up all solvent spills with absorbent material. Remove all solvent-soaked material in accordance with regulatory requirements. B. First Aid (Medical instructions) 1. EYES: Contact may cause slight to moderate irritation. High vapor concentrations (<500ppm) are irritating to the eyes. For direct contact, flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. If irritation from vapors or mists develops, move victim into fresh air. 2. SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact tends to remove skin oils, possibly leading to dermatitis. Remove contaminated clothing, wash skin with soap and water. If irritation or pain develops or persists, consult a physician. 3. INHALATION (Breathing): High concentrations of vapor or mist may be irritating to the respiratory tract and may have other central nervous system effects. Remove to fresh air immediately. Do not leave victim unattended. Consult a physician if necessary. 4. INGESTION (Swallowing): Low order of acute oral toxicity. Drink 4 to 8 ounces of water and seek medical attention. DO NOT induce vomiting. C. Environmental 1. Avoid spilling solvent. If solvent is spilled, clean it up immediately. Consult Material Safety Data Sheet for instructions on clean up and disposal. 2. Contain leaks promptly. Notify local environmental authorities if necessary. 3. Proper housekeeping in the area of the parts cleaner is the responsibility of the user. 4. Check with your local jurisdiction for any other applicable hazardous materials compliance requirements. 5. Do not remove devices designed to reduce solvent evaporation except to process work or to perform maintenance. This parts cleaner incorporates a " Remote Reservoir " design, which limits the loss of solvent through evaporation and also provides an additional fire safety feature. 6. For further information consult the Material Safety Data Sheet provided by the solvent supplier. 3
III. Installation 1. Position equipment on a hard level surface in a well-ventilated area. 2. Place the pump assembly inside the drum, and slide the pump bracket forward so the two ears clip on the back lip of the barrel. 3. Set the tank on the barrel, and slide back so the two lower weld studs extend through the slots in the pump bracket. 4. Using two of the ¼-20 nuts, fasten the pump bracket to the tank. 5. Slide the barrel clip onto the stud, on the bottom of the tank, so it clips under the lip on the barrel. Hold the clip in place with a ¼-20 nut, and tighten to secure the machine to the barrel. 6. Place the cover support on the back of the machine so the weld studs extend through the slots in the cover support. Note the direction of the cover support in the drawing. 7. Secure the cover support to the machine with two ¼-20 nuts. 8. Place the chain on the fusible link through the hole in the cover so the fusible link is on the inside of the tank. 9. Slide the clip pin through the chain on the outside of the cover to keep the fusible link from falling into the tank when the cover is closed. 10. Hook the chain from the fusible link in the slot on the cover support to hold the lid up. 11. Attach the switch box to the right side of the machine using the two 8-32 x 3/8 screws and nuts. 12.
