Product Information
The Model 1670 Immersion Cleaner is an industrial solvent parts
cleaner designed to clean parts using a mineral spirit-based
solvent. It is an economical and safe system for cleaning parts.
The parts cleaner should be installed on a flat, level surface in
an area provided with adequate ventilation. Local exhaust
ventilation must be used in areas of high vapor concentration. The
unit is not intended for outdoor operation. The cover is designed
to close automatically in the event of a fire. The safety link and

Product Usage Instructions
- Read and understand all labels, MSDS, and the instruction
manual before use. - Connect the parts cleaner to a properly grounded power source.
Check the serial plate for power requirements. - Make sure the unit is installed on a flat, level surface in an
area with adequate ventilation. - Avoid repeated or prolonged breathing of vapors. Wear
protective eyewear, gloves, and clothing to avoid contact with eyes
or skin. - Do not use compressed air to dry parts as this may cause a high
concentration of vapors in the immediate area. - Do not allow the parts cleaner to operate unattended.
- Use only mineral spirits based solvents. Do not use water-based
cleaning solutions. - Operation should be conducted in a manner that prevents
splashing or spillage. Any spills should be promptly and properly
cleaned up using absorbent material. Remove and dispose of all
soaked material in accordance with regulatory requirements. - Do not leave solution-soaked rags in the parts cleaner or in
uncovered containers. - If an extension cord is necessary, use a cord with a current
rating equal to or more than that of the equipment. Care should be
taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or
pulled. - Always unplug the equipment from the electrical outlet when not
in use. Never use the cord to pull the plug from the outlet. Grasp
the plug and pull to disconnect. - Do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers of

The Industrial Solvent Parts Cleaner is an economical, safe, and innovative system designed to clean parts, using a mineral spirit based solvent. Solvents, when used to clean grease and oil, must be disposed of properly. Consult your local environmental management agency for additional guidance and other potentially hazardous materials compliance requirements.
Install your parts cleaner on a flat, level surface in an area provided with adequate ventilation. Avoid repeated or prolonged breathing of vapors. Do NOT use compressed air to dry parts as this 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.
Make sure the parts cleaner is connected to a properly grounded power source. Check serial plate for power requirements.
Do not allow parts cleaner to operate unattended.
Complete safety in use is dependent upon proper use and handling of the parts cleaner in your workplace.

CAUTION
USE ONLY MINERAL SPIRITS BASED SOLVENTS DO NOT USE WATER-BASED CLEANING SOLUTIONS
This equipment is designed for use only with mineral spirit based solvents with a flash point greater than 40°C (104°F). Do NOT add any other chemicals to the cleaning agent including, but not limited to, kerosene, fuel oil, gasoline, or chlorinated solutions. The use of any other solutions could potentially cause a hazardous condition.
Avoid contact with eyes or skin. Wear protective eyewear, gloves, and clothing. Operation should be conducted in a manner, which prevents splashing, or spillage. Any spills should be promptly and properly cleaned up. Soak up all spills with absorbent material. Remove and dispose of all soaked material in accordance with regulatory requirements.
This unit is NOT intended for outdoor operation. Do NOT leave solution-soaked rags in parts cleaner or in uncovered containers. 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 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. Do NOT contaminate cleaning solutions with gasoline, alcohol or flammable liquids. When cleaning carburetors or other fuel supplying components: remove all gasoline into a proper disposal container before placing the component into the parts cleaner. 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 solution. Do NOT use compressed air to dry parts. Be sure parts, especially brake parts, are completely dry prior to reassembly. Turn unit “OFF” and close lid when equipment is not in use. This will reduce evaporation.
