Hi all, I just got my new ultra sonic cleaner and the instructions aren't clear so I'm hoping I can learn something from the pros here.Â
It's a small machine. I got some powder solution too.
What I want to know is can I use regular tap water in it? Do I have to use distilled or filtered?
How long should I set the timer?
What temperature should it be at?Â
The instructions say it has to be grounded does that mean use a real 3 prong outlet with the plug and not a 3 to 2 adapter? Other than the 3 prong plug there isn't anywhere for a grounding wire that I can see.
Anything else I need to know?Â
Thanks!Â
What are you cleaning?  Give it a shot with pre warmed water and something basic.  Tap water works.  Regular three prong outlet. Something easy. your wives jewelry or  Try your sunglasses and you will be surprised,  give it a shot for one min, then increase the time.Â
Thanks for the reply. I'm going to start with just the bracelet then work into movement parts. I'll use the tap water as you suggested.
For the watch movement stuff, is there a recommendation for time and temperature or stick with warmed tap water for one minute?
I am not sure about your cleaner, Â are they all the same? Â
