Always depressurize the entire
blasting system, disconnect all
electrical power sources and
lockout/tagout all components
before any maintenance or
troubleshooting is attempted.
Failure to comply with the
above warning could cause
electrical shock and
inadvertent activation of
equipment resulting in death
or serious injury.
Piping may loosen during
transit. Ensure all piping is
aligned and tightened before
use.
Never weld, grind or drill
on the blast machine (or any
pressure vessel). Doing so
will void ASME certification
and manufacturer’s warranty.
Welding, grinding or drilling
on the blast machine (or any
pressure vessel) could weaken
the vessel causing it to burst.
Failure to comply with the
above warning could result
in death or serious injury.
(ASME Pressure Vessel Code,
Section VIII, Division 1)
Apply pipe thread sealant to
all pipe threads to ensure an
airtight seal.
