OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 

WARNING:

  To ensure operator safety and efficient operation of the Cavi-

Blaster

TM

 system, it is essential to follow these instructions. 

 

Preparing the CaviBlaster

TM

 system for operation: 

 

1.

 

Inspect the CaviBlaster

TM

 power unit, hoses and lance for any signs of damage. 

 
2.  Check oil and fuel levels:  

Proper oil level in pressure pump (Figure 1) and engine (Figure 2). 
Gasoline level in detachable fuel tank (Figure 3). 
 

 

 

Figure 1 

Figure 2 

Figure 3 

 
 

3.  Fill lubricating oil(s) to proper level(s) as necessary and per pressure pump and engine 

manufacturers’ operating manuals. 

 
4.

 

When  feeding  water  to  the  CaviBlaster

TM

  power  unit  with  the  feed  pump,  connect  the  1” 

diameter clear PVC feed hose to the brass cam-lock plug on the pressure pump inlet (Figure 
4).  The  feed  hose  has  the  feed  pump  on  one  end  and  a  brass  female  cam-lock  on  the  other 
end. Insert the electrical plug powering the feed pump into the waterproof electrical outlet on 
the end of the power unit cart under the handle (Figure 5). Ensure that the red knob on the 
plug is facing up and mates with the notch in the outlet cover. 

If the plug is engaged upside 

down, the pump will turn in reverse.

 

Ensure that the feed hose is connected to the pressure 

pump and that the feed pump is securely submerged in the water source prior to starting the 
pump. 

Either fresh water or seawater can be used with this system.
