DRAINING THE MOISTURE SEPARATOR
(if equipped)
During blasting, the Moisture Separator must be periodically
drained. The best way to accomplish this is to leave the
drain valve slightly open all the time so it constantly leaks
air and forces moisture out.
WARNING
: The Abrasive Blaster must be
supplied with clean, cool, dry compressed
air in order to function properly.
SHUTTING DOWN THE ABRASIVE BLASTER
When blasting is complete, the Abrasive Blaster will need
to be shut down. Make sure the Remote Control Handle is
released then close the Inlet Shut-Off Valve and open the
Inlet Valve Petcock.
DISCONNECTING AIR SUPPLY HOSE
After the Abrasive Blaster has been depressurized and the
Inlet Valve has been closed, the Compressed Air Supply
Hose may still contain pressure which must be released
before disconnecting the hose. To do this shut off the
compressed air at its source, and open the Inlet Shut-Off
Valve on the Abrasive Blaster.
Next, open the petcock at the top of the Inlet Valve. For
systems with electric remote controls, you must be
connected to a power source and hold down the Remote
Control Handle to allow air to bleed out through the Inlet
Valve Petcock.
When you no longer hear air escaping through the Inlet
Valve petcock, squeeze the Compressed Air Supply Hose
to confirm it is soft and does not contain compressed air.
After confirming the absence of compressed air in the
Compressed Air Supply Hose it is ready to be disconnected.
DANGER
: Never disconnect any compressed air
supply hose without first performing the
“DISCONNECTING AIR SUPPLY HOSE”
procedure described above. Failure to do so
can cause the hose to blow off violently injuring
or killing nearby people.
