Preparing the load
Only load items which have been declared by their manufac-
turer as suitable for machine reprocessing may be processed. The
manufacturer's specific reprocessing instructions must be ob-
served.
Disposable items may not be reprocessed.
Special nozzles, irrigation sleeves or adapters may be required for ap-
propriate internal cleaning, depending on the load. These, together
with other accessories, are available from W&H.
Protective measures for personal safety must be observed.
Wear protective gloves when handling contaminated loads or use
appropriate tools, e.g. tweezers.
– Arrange the load so that wash water can access all surfaces. This
ensures thorough and proper cleaning.
– Do not place load items inside other items where they may be con-
cealed. Do not place load items so close together that cleaning is
hampered.
– Lumened items must be thoroughly cleaned, internally and extern-
ally, by the wash water.
– Ensure that load items with long, narrow, hollow sections can be
flushed through properly before placing them in or attaching them
to an irrigation connector.
– Hollow items should be inverted and placed in the correct mobile
units, baskets, modules and inserts, to ensure that water can flow
in and out of them unrestricted.
– Deep-sided load items, e.g. trays, should be placed at an angle to
make sure water runs off them freely.
– Take apart any items which can be dismantled according to the
manufacturer's instructions and process the individual parts separ-
ately from each other.
– Lightweight load items should be secured with a cover net (e.g. an
A 6 or A 810) and small items placed in a mesh tray to prevent them
from blocking the spray arms.
– The spray arms must not be blocked by load items which are too
tall or which hang down in their path.
– Broken glass can result in serious injury when loading or unloading.
Load items with broken glass must not be processed in the ma-
chine.
– Nickel and chrome-plated load items, and items made of alu-
minium, require special procedures and are not generally suitable
for machine reprocessing. They require special processing condi-
tions.
