Blasting Techniques
• POSITION the blast hose for maximum
maneuverability BEFORE blasting.
• DO NOT kink the blast hose.
• HOLD nozzles PERPENDICULAR
to the surface for fastest cleaning
(recommended for most applications).
• OPTIMUM STAND OFF DISTANCE is
2 in (5 cm) for most nozzles.
• NEVER ALLOW foreign objects to
enter the hopper!
• DO NOT abuse the blast applicator or
cable.
• BLAST with AIR ONLY for 1 minute
after breaks (to melt any water ice
build-up inside the blasting unit).
• SLIDE hopper access door open to
empty pellets.
• HOPPER SHOULD BE EMPTY
BEFORE REFILLING.

times.

opening the box.
