2. SAFETY
• Always disconnect the unit from the compressed air and power sources before beginning any
maintenance.
• When working with the tank wear protective glasses to protect your eyes.
• Any abrasive material on the o-ring may lead to leakage and early wear of the o-ring. After filling, clean the
thread and o-ring before applying the lid.
• Solvents will create cracks in the jar and weaken the jar (danger of explosion!). Clean the lid and tank only
with a dry cloth. Do not write or adhere anything to the jar or lid.
• Check for damages on the lids and tanks regularly and replace them if there is any doubt of the structural
integrity.
• Before operation, check to make certain the lid is secured properly. Using the product without the lid secured
will create a serious explosive hazard.
• Never operate the blasting units without suitable dust extraction and appropriate protective gear. The type
of dust extraction should be based on the type of dust generated. Ask the proper authorities.
• Never direct the blasting material towards eyes or unprotected areas of skin. Improper use can result in risk
of eye or skin injuries.
• Caution: Failure to wear eye protection can result in eye injury. Wear proper eye protection to protect your
vision.
• Do not depress the foot switch when only the compressed air supply hose is connected. The loose hose could
wrap around itself and cause serious injury.
