Section 3: Preparation for Use
3.0 BEFORE PUTTING TORNADO GUN INTO SERVICE
NEW TORNADO GUN
3.1 Check the gun carefully upon removal from its shipping container for
damage. DO NOT assemble or use the gun if any damage is apparent or
the condition of any component is questionable.
3.2 New Tornado Guns are shipped completely assembled and ready
to be put into service. Adjust the front trigger/handgrip by loosening the
wing nut located at the top of the handle and moving and/or rotating the
trigger/handgrip to a desirable location and then re-tightening the wing
nut.
Both triggers/handgrips must always be used on gun to
maintain safe control and proper operation. Do not use a Tornado Gun
that has missing, modified, or broken triggers/handgrips. Loss of control
of the gun could result in severe injury or death.
3.3 Check the gun’s trigger operation. Both triggers should move
smoothly and return positively to the trigger’s fully open position when
released. If the trigger action is not smooth and positive, determine and
correct the cause before putting the gun into service.
Front handle plumbing should be confirmed as shown in the image be-
low. The lower connection is labeled AIR IN and this line comes from the
air drill. The upper connection is labeled as AIR OUT and this line goes to
MMV signal valve.
