• You will hear a loud exhaust sound when the pressure control button is deactivated. This is
the exhaust valve relieving the air pressure from the vessel.
• After the blaster has fully depressurized, the plunger will drop.
• You can now refill the vessel with your desired abrasive.
• After the ECO-100 is refilled with abrasive reactive the pressure control button. This will re-
pressurize the blast pot to the previously set pressure.
