the red diode on the battery charger indicates
that the charger is on.
unplug the charger from the machine and the
100V/220 supply when the battery is fully
charged
.
Fasten the earth connection wire in the
butterfly
nut on the back of the machine in order to pre-
vent static electricity. connect the terminal to
some place already adequately earthed.
make sure the machine is on a level, horizontal
foundation.

connect the primary air coupling to the main air
connection on the rear of the machine cabinet.
plug the blasting hose into the socket on the
front of the machine cabinet. check that the
hose is securely connected.
make the electrical connections at both ends of
the blasting hose with the corresponding sockets
on the blasting gun and on the front of the

Dry ice check
dry ice for the cleaning process must be applied
into the built-in dry ice tank. this can be done while
the machine is in operation. it is recommended that
the
dry
ice tank be run
empty
for each
filling
to en
-
able the operator to see whether “snow” or lumps
appear in the dry ice. these can prevent a continu-
ous supply of dry ice to the dispensing system.
never leave the machine with the cover open.
dry ice must be handled in accordance with the safe-
ty regulations issued by the dry ice supplier, and the
operator must wear personal protection equipment
as described in the above safety regulations.
The Working Posture of the operator
before activating the blasting gun switch, the opera-
tor must stand in a working posture that prevents
loss of balance from blasting gun recoil. When used
at the highest blasting pressure, with the largest
nozzle diameter, the recoil energy can reach as
much as 6 kp. close off the working area and set up
possible mandatory signs pertaining to ear protec-
tion and safety goggles.
starting
When the machine has been set up, the following
procedure shall be followed before the cleaning
process is begun:
check carefully to ensure that the dispensing
system
at the
outflow
of the
dry
ice tank is
dry and clean.
