™
Ionized Air Gun 980 approximately 6 inches (15 cm) from
the surface you want to discharge and blow off. Aim the Ionized Air Gun
980 and press the trigger to blow ionized air. The green LED on the back of
the Ionized Air Gun 980 lights up while you press the trigger, indicating that
the Ionized Air Gun 980 is ionizing. Typically, static electricity on a surface
will be discharged within one second. Release the trigger when the surface
is assumed to be clean.
7.6 If the Ionized Air Gun 980 is not in use, it is recommended that the Power
Switch on the console be turned off. This will avoid unintentional operation
of the Ionized Air Gun 980. The included S-hook may be used to hang the
Ionized Air Gun 980 out of the way but still within reach.
8.0 Maintenance
The Ionized Air Gun 980/980E requires very little maintenance. Occasional
cleaning of the case and emitter points, and periodic replacement of the air filter
are all that is required. Always be sure to protect all components from liquids
and corrosive chemicals. Carefully follow these maintenance instructions.
8.1 Cleaning the Components
8.11 Using a cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol, wipe the exterior surfaces
of the console and Ionized Air Gun 980 to remove any dirt or dust that may
have collected.
8.12 Using a swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol, gently clean the emitter
points on the Ionized Air Gun 980. Extremely dirty emitter points will
increase the time needed to discharge static.
CAUTION
Always disconnect power and air supplies before cleaning or replacing components.
