•
Use the Inner Air Blow Gun
20
only for large and solid prints.
•
The Static nozzle
20
is ideal for small and fragile prints.
•
By default, ceramic nozzle no. 5 is installed in the Inner Air Blow Gun. You can also choose
to use a larger or smaller ceramic nozzle (available in the Accessory box).
•
Nozzles smaller than No. 5 do not work precisely with the Sinterit Abrasive material.
•
A bigger size ceramic nozzle gets the job done faster because it can blast a larger surface,
this also causes a higher air consumption. Make sure you have the appropriate compressor.
