ALWAYS wear safety goggles or protective eye-wear when operating the unit
!
OPERATION
1)
Lift the operating handle to release clamp, and open the AeroVent
®
1 lid.
2)
Can stop should be in slots at front of the trough liner.
3)
Insert 1 aerosol can with
the bottom of the can pointing toward the clamp,
and up against the forward stop.
4)
Close the lid. Operate by pushing down on the operating handle. (The clamp will engage the lid and push the lid
down).
5)
Push down until the operating clamp “locks” into place (“Puncture & Drain position”). The aerosol can has now
been punctured. Wait 15-30 seconds to allow can to drain. You may now lift the handle to the “unload” position
and open the lid to remove the can.
Note: If aerosol cans are mostly full, leave the handle in the locked position for 45-60 seconds to allow can to
drain completely.
PRECAUTIONARY WARNING!
Do not use the AeroVent
®
for draining expanding foam
sealant aerosol products or spray adhesive products.
Always use the correct plunger block for the diameter of the
can that you are draining.
The clamp must remain locked until the can drains.
To insure that the can is drained, wait 15-30 seconds before
un-locking the clamp and opening the lid.
If a can is full when punctured, wait at least 1 minute before
opening the unit. Full cans take longer to empty and may
discharge fumes or liquids if the unit is opened too soon.
We recommend changing the carbon filter every 60 days or
600 cans. If cans contain larger amounts of remaining liquids,
change the filter more often. Also, we do not recommend
allowing the drum to become more than 70% (2/3) full. An
air space is needed in the drum to allow for draining and
venting of fumes
