VERIFY THE FOLLOWING SUPPLY AIR PARAMETERS:
• The air pipe is at least a .5 in (12 mm) in diameter.
• The air pressure does not exceed 140 psig (9.7 bar).
• The air temperature does not exceed 122°F (50°C).
1.
Make sure the power switch and bleed valve are OFF (O).
2.
Securely attach the blast hose and control cable to
the machine.
3.
Securely attach the applicator to the blast hose and

Check the data plate for the operating pressure range.
Check the blast hose operating pressure.
6.
Make sure the ice trough is dry, clean, and free of debris.
7.
Connect the static bonding cable to the blast hose and target surface or to an
electrically conductive supporting structure.
8.

11.
Turn the bleed valve ON (I) to purge water out of the lines, then turn it OFF
(O) to close it.
START UP
If the supply air
exceeds 140 psig
(9.7 bar) then use
