HUSQVARNA HUSQVARNA THREAD

[Bryan Barrow]

Just picked up an ultrasonic cleaner today. I’ve read mixed opinions on it so asking for real experience. What’s the safe temp and time for the cylinders/mag cases while using dawn dish soap?

Well my excitement got the best of me. Here’s my advice based off my experience (394xp cylinder. Risked a lot and trusted my research lol)

1. 1 tbsp dish soap per liter of water
2. Set to 130° (55° Celsius)
3. Run for 10 min, flip, then another 10 min. Not sure if flipping helps but it makes me feel better
4. Immediately rinse it all and dry with a hairdryer on high until complete (I don’t have an answer yet for when your wife/girlfriend finds out)
5. Do it all again

Dawn dish soap won’t corrode or discolor the cylinders and does a pretty phenomenal job. I’ll add photos. I should’ve done more prep getting chunks off but I’ll own that one. I was impatient and just wanted to get it in

Which US did you get?
my little one is 20yrs old and about dead and the larger one, estate sale for cheap, doesn't work all that well.

I kind of cheat and dip the cleaning solution (Mostly simple green) out of the USC tank and nuke it hot. saves time and I have heard the heat part a the weak point Others say the drivers get weak.
