•
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and untrained persons. Tools may be dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
•
Drain water trap periodically during use. Do not allow moisture to fi ll more than 1/2 the water trap
bowl. Do not leave water standing in water trap when done with work.
•
Do not allow abrasive blaster to sit pressurized while unattended or not in use.
•
Make sure all equipment is rated to the appropriate capacity. For best results, set regulator and
operate at 80 to 90 PSI. DO NOT exceed 125 PSI.
•
Periodically check the abrasive media delivery equipment. Valves, hoses and nozzles that carry
the abrasive media after it leaves the pressure tank are subjected to the abrasive blasting action
so they will wear out more quickly than other components.
•
Release the air pressure in the tank before opening. See “Releasing Pressure from the Tank”
section. Make sure pressure gauge reads “0” before opening the tank. Do not attempt any main-
tenance on the abrasive blaster until the pressure gauge reads “0”, and it has been disconnected
from air supply.
•
Maintain correct air pressure when working. DO NOT allow pressure to exceed 125 psi. The
safety valve is set to release at 125 PSI. If the safety valve releases, stop all work immediately and
release pressure from the tank (see “Releasing Pressure from the Tank” section).
