WARNING:
Although the CaviBlaster
®
system is safe to use when
submerged in water, the system generates a high-
pressure (up to 2,500-psi) water stream, which can cause
injury when the gun is out of the water.
ALWAYS
keep
the gun submerged when the pressure pump is engaged.
Operating the CaviBlaster
®
system:
1. When the diver is ready to commence cleaning operations, ensure that the gun is submerged
in water. Then move the throttle lever up to adjust the engine RPM to “MAX” (Figure # 16).
Ensure that the power unit operator and other persons working in the vicinity of the power
unit wear appropriate hearing protection when the engine is running
. If the diver is not
wearing a helmet, hearing protection is recommended. CaviDyne
recommends “Doc’s
Proplugs” vented earplugs or equivalent for diver hearing protection.
2. Activate the cleaning cavitation stream by squeezing the trigger to the open or “ON” position
(Figure # 15).
3.
The most efficient operating technique is to hold the gun 2-3 inches away from the surface to
be cleaned and at a 25 to 45 degree angle to the surface being cleaned (Figure # 18).
Placing
the gun closer than 2-3 inches from the surface being cleaned will not allow for efficient
cavitation performance and will degrade the cleaning capability of the system.
4.
Wear neoprene or rubber gloves to protect the hands and follow all safety regulations that
may be applicable to the work being performed.
5. If the diver operating the unit must be replaced or the cleaning operation must be interrupted
or terminated, shut down the engine by moving the throttle lever down to adjust engine RPM
to “MIN” (Figure # 16) and turning the key to the “OFF” position (Figure # 13). Turn off the
feed pump (Figure # 12),
and then release the water pressure in the hose(s) by squeezing the
gun trigger to the open or “ON” position (Figure # 15)
while under water
.
Revert back to
step 1 of the operating instructions when the replacement diver is ready to continue cleaning.
6.
Ensure that the gun is submerged any time the engine and pressure pump are operating.
