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.
