  procedures not specifically explained in this manual must 

be performed only by a qualified technician.

tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury FrOM acciDEntaL OpEratiOn: 
turn off the Soda Blaster, detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air 
pressure in the Soda Blaster, and release the throttle and/or turn the switch to its off 
position before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

tO prEVEnt SEriOuS inJury FrOM SODa BLaStEr FaiLurE: 
Do not use damaged equipment.  if abnormal noise, vibration, 
or leaking air occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.

cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

note:

  These procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance 

explained as part of the regular operation of the air-operated Soda Blaster.

1. 

BEFOrE EacH uSE,

 inspect the general 

condition of the Soda Blaster.  Check for:
•  loose hardware or housing, 
•  misalignment or binding of moving parts, 
•  cracked or broken parts, and 
•  any other condition that may 

affect its safe operation.

2. 

Daily - air Supply Maintenance: 

Every day, maintain the air supply according 
to the component manufacturers' instructions.   
Drain the moisture filter regularly.    
Performing routine air supply maintenance will 
allow the Soda Blaster to operate more safely 
and will also reduce wear on the Soda Blaster.

troubleshooting

1.  Excess moisture will cause the abrasive to slow 

or stop flowing through the Abrasive Outlet Pipe.  

To test, check the abrasive by pouring a 6″ cone 

of abrasive on dry newspaper.  After several 
minutes, remove the abrasive from the newspaper.  
Do not use the abrasive if the newspaper is moist.

2.  Poor or irregular flow of the abrasive may also be 

due to low air pressure or a worn Nozzle.   
To correct, increase the air pressure 
(to no more than 90 PSI) and/
or replace the worn Nozzle.
