Use of ultrasonic cleaner in bike area?

Discussion

Hi @BikeTechs - is the ultrasonic cleaner in the bike area good to use, and if so where are the rules and regs?

Apologies if I’ve missed a tool page, I did take a look.

Cheers!

Hiiii,

The Tool Page is to be done.

  1. Do not run the cleaner dry.
  2. Always use the basket.
  3. Fill to 2/3 to 3/4 full. Remember to take into account the volume your parts take up.
  4. Do not use cleaners that can gas out toxic :cloud:
  5. Be careful as the cleaning fluid can get very hot.
  6. Double check what you are cleaning will survive the ultrasound. As a general guide anything with over moulded rubber (grips) or electronics (Simano DI2) will not survive.

Remember to wipe down after use.

Hope these help. I will be in the space after 6pm today (27 Jun)..

Is it effective to just use water?

Yes for most things.
