There are a few things to avoid while utilizing an ultrasonic cleaner, ensuring that it is effective in cleaning and does not damage the cleaner and the items being cleaned.

Some of them include:

Overloading the Tank:

1. Issue: Putting too many items into the tank can hinder ultrasonic waves and make cleaning less efficient.
2. Solution: Follow the manufacturer’s maximum load recommendations and provide enough space for objects to be efficiently cleaned.

Using Inappropriate Cleaning Solutions:

1. Issue: Using cleaners incompatible with your items or ultrasonic cleaner can cause damage or poor cleaning.
2. Solution: Wash your specific item only with recommended cleaning solutions from the manufacturer or known cleaning agents that are safe.

Submerging Non-Waterproof Items:

1. Issue: Diving non-waterproofed or poorly sealed items into the fluid can lead to their damage.
2. Solution: Make sure all your possessions are waterproof as well as suitable for being washed with ultrasound, otherwise use protective covers if necessary.

Ignoring Manufacturer’s Instructions:

1. Issue: Failure to comply with instructions concerning operation, cleaning solution use, maintenance provided by manufacturer may result into malfunctioning or damaging of equipment.
2. Solution: Always refer to user guide and operational manual delivered by manufacturer

Using the Wrong Frequency or Power Settings:

1. Issue: Wrong frequency/power settings can either break fragile things or fail at cleaning adequately.
2. Solution: Adjust depending on what you are washing. Use lower frequencies when working on hard stains but higher frequencies for delicate objects

Neglecting Maintenance:

1. Issue: Failure to maintain regular cleanliness causes residues accumulation leading to a decline in performance efficiency of an ultrasonic cleaner.
2. Solution: Clean tanks regularly when necessary and replace/clean filters whenever they get dirty; hence follow manufacturers’ schedule advisory on maintenance procedures

Using Dirty or Contaminated Solutions:

1. Issue: Dirty solutions can cause the spread of contaminants and decrease cleaning efficiency.
2. Solution: Replace cleaning solution when it becomes visibly dirty or contaminated

Placing Items Directly on the Tank Bottom:

1. Issue: Items placed on the base of the container could be subject to excessive ultra-sonic waves which might lead to damage.
2. Solution: Use a basket or rack that holds objects above the bottom of the tank and ensures that they receive equal exposure to ultra-sonic waves.

Using High Temperatures for Sensitive Items:

1. Issue: High temperatures can deform sensitive items or cause them to become damaged.
2. Solution: Do not overheat such items and use recommended temperature settings accordingly.

Skipping Pre-Cleaning:

1. Issue: Heavy dirt or debris on objects will reduce ultrasonic cleaning effectiveness.
2. Solution: Pre-clean your items before placing them in an ultrasound cleaner in order to remove extra dirt, grit etc from them.

Ignoring Safety Precautions:

1. Issue: Not observing safety rules such as those concerning electrical components and heated solutions makes sterilizers hazardous tools especially ultrasonic cleaners.
2. Solution: Observe safety guidelines like safe handling of chemical reagents and preventing electric shock, among others

By avoiding these most common errors, one can ensure a good performance of their ultrasound cleaner as well as effective and safe cleansing of things.
