SET-UP
General
Place the machine on a level surface and lock all four wheels.
Be sure the drain valve is completely closed (handle perpendicular to the drain)
before filling the machine.
Fill the wash tank with water (
see note at the bottom of this page)
and the proper
dilution of soap to just above the spray bar. Using hot water will shorten the amount
of time required to reach the desired temperature. Check drain assembly to insure
that there is no leakage.
The Model 5036FSE tank dimensions are 36
” x 24” with a 20” overall working depth.
This tank will hold 80 gallons and has a working volume of approximately 60 gallons
when the water level is at the midpoint of the spray bar. This liquid volume does not
include the liquid in the pump / filter system. Use this volume for calculating the
amount of detergent you will use.
*Note About Water*
The quality of your water source can have an important effect on the performance of the
ultrasonic equipment. High levels of calcium, magnesium, sulfur and other contaminants
in the water source can have a negative effect on the type of cleaning soap used. High
levels of calcium and/or magnesium (constitutes hard water) can cause the soap to
work less efficiently and less effectively as intended and can also leave a white, flaky
residue on the parts once dried. If this white spotting occurs and is not desired, it will be
necessary to use soft water, drinking water or distilled water, in the machine. The level
of final cleanliness will dictate the water source used in the machine.
