In this part of the video, the reviewer demonstrates the wash cycle of the UW-02 cleaning station. They printed a mini figure and highlighted the gentle pass of cleaning solution over the print at normal speed, showing effectiveness without damage. The review notes the ability to switch to a quick cleaning mode resembling typical washers, with impressive vortex action during the cycle. An interesting feature mentioned is that the wash cycle only starts when the lid is in place, enhancing safety. The impeller reverses direction midway for better cleaning. After drying the items, the turntable is replaced for curing, although the rotation must be manual due to the lack of underside LEDs. Overall, the UW-02 effectively cleans and cures prints.
