SAFETY FEATURES The Milnor has many safety devices that you should become familiar with. These safety features should be listed on a locally prepared document and posted near the machine. The door to the washer has an interlock that prevents the door from opening during operation. The machine will also cut off automatically if the air pressure is too low. The air pressure should be a minimum of 80 pounds for extract or a brake air pressure switch will prevent the machine from entering extract. AUTOMATIC OPERATIONS Before you operate the Milnor, perform the preoperational checks as outlined for the Dyna Wash and load the machine to the rated capacity. 1. Turn cylinder knob until formula chart fingers approach start. 2. Close and lock the door, add supplies to automatic dispenser. 3. Place all switches in the AUTO or FORMULA position. 4. Turn cylinder knob until interior light goes on in the formula chart. 5. Push start button. 6. After cycles complete a signal will sound, push stop button, open door. 7. Unload machine. MANUAL OPERATION Manual operation should only be used when the automatic timer is inoperative. Manual operation slows down workflow, causes less than desirable washing results, and ties up laundry personnel as they will be busy attending machine controls. The following steps should be followed: 1. Load machine to rated capacity. 2. Turn formula chart to uncut position. 3. Close and lock the door. 4. Set your switches to the following positions: Master switch- MANUAL setting Motor switch- WASH-FORMULA setting Temperature control- for first cycle put temperature 2 switch to ON and temperature 1 switch to OFF Drain switch- shut Hot water switch- in Cold water switch- in 5. Push start button and washer will fill with water of selected temperature. You can fill washer to desired water level and shut off the water by placing the hot and cold water switches to OFF. 6. Add supplies following applicable wash formula. 7. Switch drain to open and allow water to empty at the end of each cycle. 8. Energize the extract motor by switching the motor switch to EXTRACT after draining the water from the flush suds cycle. Leave drain open for this procedure. 9. Shut off extract, close drain after 1 minute. 10. Complete the next two rinse cycles. 11. Switch temperature 1 to ON and temperature 2 to OFF on the third rinse. 12. Turn water switches on, fill washer to desired level, and shut water switches off. 13. Add sour and starch as required. 14. Open drain at end of final rinse. Allow water to empty and energize extract. 15. Push the off button and turn all switches off at the end of the extract. Allow the cylinder
to stop and unload. Figure 5-22 shows a laundry-man unloading a Milnor.
