that the power unit operator and other people working in the vicinity of the power
unit wear appropriate hearing protection when the unit is running.
1. Engage the pressure pump by turning the start-up by-pass valve to the
“CLOSED” position (See Figure 5.1).
2. The most efficient operating technique is to hold the nozzle 2-5 inches (5-12
cm) away from the surface to be cleaned and at a 25 to 45 degree angle to the
surface being cleaned (See Figure 5.3). The diver needs to observe the shape
of the cavitating jet cone. At greater depths, the higher ambient pressure will
cause the jet cone to be shorter. The widest zone of the cone is the most
efficient part of the cavitating jet. Placing the nozzle closer than 2 inches (5 cm)
from the surface being cleaned will not allow for efficient cavitation performance
and will degrade the cleaning capability of the CaviBlaster
®
system.
3. Follow all safety regulations that may be applicable to the work being
performed.
4. If the diver operating the unit must be replaced or the cleaning operation must
be interrupted or terminated, turn the unit off
and then release the water
pressure in the hose(s) by squeezing the gun trigger to the open or
“ON”
position (See Figure 5.3)
while under water
.
Revert back to step 5.2 of the
operating instructions when the diver or replacement is ready to continue
cleaning.
