Tool Set Up
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM

Detach the air supply and safely discharge any
residual air pressure in the tool before performing
any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Do not adjust or tamper with any control or

Work Piece and
Work Area Set Up
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2. Route the air hose along a safe route to reach
the work area without creating a tripping hazard
or exposing the air hose to possible damage.
The air hose must be long enough to reach
the work area with enough extra length to
allow free movement while working.
3. There must not be hazardous objects
(such as utility lines or foreign objects) nearby
that will present a hazard while working.
4. If possible, place the workpiece inside a abrasive
blasting cabinet (not included). Otherwise, isolate
the workpiece to make sure no damage can occur
to nearby walls, tools, equipment, or other property.
CAUTION! Prior to abrasive blasting, protect other
people (and property) in the work area from ying debris
by providing barriers or shields. Wear appropriate
clothing and safety gear when operating the Blaster Gun.
