CONNECTING MAGJET X40
Only use with a control gun barrel length of 48 inches MINIMUM to prevent nozzle
discharge from accidently striking the operator’s feet, legs, or body. Refer to WJTA
“Industry Best Practices for the use of High Pressure Waterjetting Equipment”
Section 11.10.6 and Section 2.7.
Engage the pump and depress the control gun trigger to clear any debris from the
system prior to installing the MagJet X40 onto the control gun barrel.
NOZZLE INSTALLATION
Before installing the nozzles into the MagJet X40, verify each nozzle is the correct
size, and inspect each nozzle to ensure the sapphire orifice is not damaged
or missing. Make sure the nozzle orifices are not too small in order to prevent
excessive system pressure when the gun’s control valve trigger/pedal is
depressed. Refer to the Flow Rate Charts for the proper flow rate and thrust for
your application.
NOTE:
The MagJet X40 may be configured with either four nozzles or two
nozzles and two plugs. For a given flow, the larger streams obtained
by using the two-nozzle configuration may be preferred for some
cleaning applications.
1. Use a 5/32” hex key to remove the bolt holding the head cover in place to
allow access to the nozzle ports in the head.
2. Apply anti-seize compound to the male threads of the nozzle or plug (and
cone if using UHPX nozzles) and install using an adjustable or 5/16” wrench.
Hand tighten to 50 lbs. in.
3. Apply medium strength Loctite to the threads of the bolt and reinstall the
head cover. Screw in an torque the bolt to 100 lbs. in.
WARNING
!
!
A system must be used when 2 or more dump gun operators are connected to a single
waterblast unit. Each gun operator must have independent control of nozzle pressure at
their location.
MagJet surface may exceed 200:F.
MagJet utilizes magnets which produce strong magnetic fields. Keep the tool at least 6
inches away from any medical device.
OPERATION
As per the WJTA-IMCA Recommended Practices, all operators shall follow the
OSHA regulations for personal protective equipment. (OSHA guidelines for
Personal Protective Equipment are available in document number 3151-12R 2004,
which can be obtained from www.osha.gov.) All operators shall be issued suitable
head protection, eye protection, hearing protection, body protection, hand and
foot protection and respiratory protection (if needed). For detailed specifications
on all protections required, refer to the WJTA-IMCA ‘Recommended Practices
for the Use of High Pressure Waterjetting Equipment’ Section 6, Protective
Equipment For Personnel.
DANGER
!
!
The MagJet X40 nozzle’s discharge jet(s) can inflict serious bodily wounds. Use only
thoroughly trained operators to perform cleaning operations with the MagJet X40.
1. Carefully inspect the gun for damage or missing parts. Ensure that all
components work smoothly and freely.
2. During all control gun operations, a secondary or “safety watch” operator
should observe the gun operator at all times from a safe, but proximate,
distance. The safety watch should have both voice and sight communication
with the gun operator at all times. The safety watch must have the ability to
instantly shut the waterblast system down (from his location) with the use
of a shutdown device (such as JETSTREAM’s Emergency Shut-Down Package,
PN 53120) if the control gun operator encounters problems or if a problem is
suspected. Call JETSTREAM for system specific recommendations.
3.
Use only clear, clean, cold water that has been filtered to 10 microns with
these rotating nozzles.
ATTENTION
The person controlling the cleaning nozzle must be the gun operator and must have
control of the pressure. Do not allow a secondary or remote operator to have control of
the pressure.
4. Do not connect multiple dump type control guns to a single high-pressure
water source without the use of a Multi-Gun Valve (MGV) to make each gun
operator independent of the other operators. Call JETSTREAM for assistance if
two or more dump type control guns must be used in the waterblast system.
5. Place barricades with warning signs or barricade tape around work area. This
includes the waterblast unit and all high-pressure hoses.
6.
The gun operator must be outfitted with Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
OSHA guidelines for Personal Protective Equipment are available in document
number 3151-12R 2004, which can be obtained from www.osha.gov.
7. Assume blasting position with gun and ensure blast nozzle cannot cross any
part of the legs, feet, or body.

CAUTION
DO NOT use the gun or MagJet X40 if it has not been cleaned and inspected prior to
starting the working shift.
Protect the control gun in freezing conditions. Stop using the gun if any low temperature
operational problems occur. Drain the gun and remove its cartridge if not in use during
freezing conditions.
