out at high velocity. Impact from exiting abrasive could cause severe injury.
14. Do not use electrical adaptors that eliminate the ground prong on 115
volt plugs.Failure to properly ground the machine can cause injury from
electric shock and equipment damage. To help reduce the possibility of
static electricity and its related hazards,always ground the Blast machine.
15. Do not use this equipment in any area that might be considered
hazardous or where flammable gases or liquids are present.Failure to do
so may cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.
16. Static electricity can be created by the use of this equipment.Do not
Use within fifty feet of any explosive,potentially explosive Substances, or
their vapors as an explosion can occur.
17. Do not overfill tank with media.Do not fill to within 6 inches from top of
the tank.
18. BEFORE OPENING THE TANK,release the air pressure on the
abrasive tank. To do this, turn off the air supply valve(19),and push down to
open the DEADMAN valve(1),to release pressure in the line.Ensure that
the tank pressure gauge reads zero,then open the tank.
19. MAINTAIN CORRECT AIR PRESSURE,maximum of 110PSl is
recommended, pressure must not exceed 125PSI. If pressure exceeds
125PSI, stop all work immediately, and disconnect the air compressor to
reduce the excess pressure. Do not investigate the blaster's pressure
problem until the pressure gauge, reads zero.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATINGTECHNIQUE:
1. Connect air hose to air inlet valve. Manufacturer recommends using
minimum incoming air hose of 1/2" I.D. Using an air hose smaller than 1/2"
I.D. will restrict air volume and result in poor unit operation.Prior to injection
of air, be certain air inlet valve and nozzle valve are in the OFF position.
With Deadman Valve closed and filler plug tight, open air inlet valve
allowing air to pressurize. Operating range of unit is 40 to 110 PSI Note:
For proper nozzle selection, refer to nozzle selection chart on page 11.
