This section lists probable causes of problems that may occur during operation of the abrasive blaster.
Not all of the “probable causes” may apply to your particular abrasive blaster. The probable cause may
not apply because of the control type and accessories on the abrasive blaster. Refer to Figure 11.1 and
the drawings in Section 9.0.
Abrasive blasters are Pressurized Vessels. Propelled objects will cause serious injury or death.
Depressurize vessel before performing any maintenance. See Section 6.2.

(3) Defective sleeve in Thompson Valve (worn by abrasive).
(4) Blocked air hose to Thompson Valve (trash blockage or pinched hose).
