WARNING

:  While the CaviBlaster® system is very safe, operators should exercise

care when using this equipment. With the diver lance underwater, the cavitation
“flame”   can   be   safely   passed   over   the   operators’   skin   at   normal   operating
distances of 2” – 3” from the tip of the nozzle. However, at very close distances
(typically less than 1”) both nozzles can cause harm to the operator, particularly in
the initial instant that the system is activated. For that reason, operators should
exercise caution when operating the gun with the nozzles in close proximity to the
body. 

The operators should also ensure that the reverse-thrust nozzle guard is secured
in   the   correct   position   prior   to   operating   the   gun.   The   operators   of   the
CaviBlaster® system  should always  wear neoprene or heavy rubber gloves to
provide protection to the hands and, in particular, to the nails. The gloves will
absorb most of the energy produced by bursting cavitation bubbles and prevent
the cavitation bubbles from contacting the operators’ hands. The gloves will also
protect operators’ hands from the initial shock wave when the gun is activated. 

Serious   harm   and   injury   may   result   from   the   misuse   of   CaviBlaster®   system
equipment or improperly selected fittings, hoses or attachments. All components
of   the   system   should   be   checked   against   the   manufacturers’   instructions   to
ensure that they are compatible with the pressures being used and of the correct
thread type and pressure rating for the intended service. Refer to these Operating
Instructions   and   to   the   engine   and   pressure   pump   manufacturers’   operation
manuals   for   instructions   or   call   CaviDyne,   LLC   at   (352)   275-5319   with   any
questions. 

CAUTION: DO NOT USE IT TO CLEAN SENSITIVE 
SURFACES as LED-Lights, Underwater Lights, 
Electronic Equipment, Etc.
