KARTWASHER UNLOADING & INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Your Kartwasher is shipped fully assembled ready to place on the floor or pit in your selected location. Follow the directions:

Unloading:*DO NOT SIGN BILL OF LADING UNTIL INSPECTED* 1. Unwrap Kartwasher and inspect for damage during shipping. 2. The Kartwasher may be picked up with a forklift with extra long (60” min.)

forks. It must be picked up off center WITH THE BLOWER TOWARD THE FORKLIFT. The weight of the components in the side of the Kartwasher make it off balance at the center lift. The balance point is near the door edge in the middle of the Kartwasher pallet. If there is no forklift with extra long forks to pick up the Kartwasher it can be lifted by any means at one end and dragged off the truck and slid into position.

3. Lift the Kartwasher and unbolt the wood holding the Kartwasher to the pallet. Remove the pallet and any plywood under the Kartwasher.

4. Slowly lower the Kartwasher onto the floor. Do not drop. Slide into the final position using wood between the Kartwasher frame and forks.

5. Mount to the floor in 4-8 places using proper fasteners per floor type.

Pit Installation 1. Remove the shipping blocks. Place 4" blocks in one end of the pit.

2. Slide the Kartwasher onto the blocks. Using a “J” bar, forklift or similar

leverage instrument, lower the Kartwasher into the pit. Remove the blocks from the one end and lower that portion into the pit. Due to the pit dimensions and depth the Kartwasher must be lowered in stages into the pit. For conveyor systems see additional instructions.

11

Connecting The Utilities The electrical conduit, water pipe and air line should be connected through the ceiling to the component in the utility section of the Kartwasher. Drill holes directly above the internal connection locations. Caulk around the ceiling holes inside and out after connecting. 1) Connect the power to the internal panel complying with local electrical codes.

2) Connect the water to the ¾” NPT water connection on the water tank. 3) Connect the compressed air to the ¼” air connection. 4) The exhaust outlet (20”X20”) in the roof of the wash chamber should be

ducted to the outside of the laundry.

5) The inlet (24”X 24”) on the utility cabinet roof may be connected to fresh air or to the clean side of the laundry.

For Kartwashers with built-in sumps in the bottom of the wash chamber connect the 1½” drain (placement specified when ordered) to the main drain of the laundry per applicable codes.

PRIOR TO START UP

1. Attach cable to 64,000 color touchpad display and mount to front of Kartwasher soiled side.

2. Attach cable to Emergency Stop button and mount to front of Kartwasher

clean side.

3. Attached clearly marked wires to Beacon/Strobe (Optional) and mount to location at user’s discretion.

4. Open water supply valve (by others) to fill water tank. Make sure the float valve in the water tank shuts off water feed prior to water level reaching overflow tube.

5. Open air supply valve (by others) and set air regulator inside the

mechanical chamber to 25 psi.

6. Fill 2 chemical tanks (Detergent/Sanitizer & Rinse Agent) with proper chemicals. Your chemical supplier should give recommendations of their product. If chemicals are not available at the time of start-up, use water.)

7. Mount entrance and exit ramps on models with built in sump option.

8. Turn on main power disconnect (others).

9. Open main control panel and turn overload switches to the on position.

10. Briefly press the large motor starter contactor to check direction of the blower motor. If wrong shut off the power at the main power disconnect and reverse two wires at their connection points.. This will change the direction of the blower motor and the pump motor. Both the blower and pump motors are setup for the proper direction in the factory.

The Kartwasher should be ready for full operation.

KARTWASH CYCLE START & SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

LOAD SEQUENCE

The Kartwasher is prepared to operate. Note bottom center of display instructing operator to completely load the cart with the front wheel resting against the eject pin located on the floor.

14

START SEQUENCE

A cart has been loaded into the Kartwasher. Sensor has identified cart loaded in the machine ready to operate. Press “Press Start” button to start the cycle. Note: If the “start” button is flashing, with a cart in the unit, the PLC is missing an input necessary for the beginning of the cycle. See Diagnostics Section (Pages 20 & 21).

15

WASH SEQUENCE

The wash sequence has started. The wash sequence will process the inside and the outside of the cart. The elapsed time remaining for each is shown in seconds. The total time remaining for the complete cycle is shown in the time left box. If the cycle needs to be paused press the “STOP” button. To resume the cycle press the “START” button”.

16

RINSE SEQUENCE

The rinse sequence has started. The rinse sequence will process the inside and the outside of the cart. The elapsed time remaining for each is shown in seconds. The total time remaining for the complete cycle is shown in the time left box. If the cycle needs to be paused press the “STOP” button. To resume the cycle press the “START” button”.

17

DRAIN SEQUENCE

The drain sequence has started. The drain sequence will tilt the cart to allow water inside the cart to drain through holes built in the cart bottom. If there are no holes then ½” holes will need to be drilled in each corner. The elapsed time remaining is shown in seconds. The total time remaining for the complete cycle is shown in the time left box. If the cycle needs to be paused press the “STOP” button. To resume the cycle press the “START” button”.

18

DRYING SEQUENCE

The dry sequence has started. During the dry sequence the cart will remain tilted to allow water inside the cart to drain through holes built in the cart bottom. The elapsed time remaining is shown in seconds. The total time remaining for the complete cycle is shown in the time left box. If the cycle needs to be paused press the “STOP” button. To resume the cycle press the “START” button”.

19

EJECT SEQUENCE

The eject sequence has started. The clean door opens simultaneously activating the beacon & siren to alert personnel that a cart is to be automatically ejected to the clean side of the laundry. The wheel stop pin releases the cart. After the cart is fully ejected the clean door closes and the soil door opens to start the next cycle.

MAINTENANCE

The Energenics Kartwasher was designed for low maintenance and long life. In addition, except for the conveyor under the floor, all maintenance items are assessable at floor level. ROUTINE MONITORING: The detergent and sanitizer must be refilled as needed. Indicator lights on the front panel alert operators to low solution conditions. The electric eyes should be kept clean from dirt and debris. They should be wiped off with a clean cloth as needed. Periodically test the Emergency Stop buttons to insure operating safety. QUARTERLY: Door & ejector wheels: Spray with WD-40. Check the door air cylinders and auto ejector cylinder. Check the two Pulsatron chemical pumps, the Pulsatron metering pump tubes have a design life of one year. ANNUALLY: Water Tank Float: Check the water tank float and float seals. Inside the washing compartment, inspect the caulking around the base between the fiberglass and aluminum. Re-caulk if necessary to prevent water from entering between the aluminum flange and the fiberglass panel. Replace the metering pump tubes per the instructions attached. 3/8 outside diameter tubes is the correct size for the pump.
