SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP
Operating Instructions
Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this
manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
Inspect tool before use, looking for damaged, loose, and missing parts.
If any problems are found, do not use tool until repaired.
Tool Set Up - Filling Soda Blasting Media
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Close all valves, detach the air supply, and pull on the safety valve to release all residual air pressure
before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Do not adjust or tamper with any control or component in a way not specifically explained within
this manual. Improper adjustment can result in tool failure or other serious hazards.
IMPORTANT: Fill tank immediately before use and
do not allow media to sit in the blaster. It will solidify
in the tank, becoming very difficult to remove.
1. Open the Tank.
Note: Household baking soda is NOT blasting media.
2. Use a funnel and screen filter to fill the Tank
with sodium bicarbonate blasting media
(all sold separately).
Note: Using DRY media only and SCREENING when
filling are both CRITICAL to prevent severe clogging.
3. Close the Tank securely.
Workpiece 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.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
4. There must not be hazardous objects
(such as utility lines or foreign objects) nearby
that will present a hazard while working.
5. Keep a large bucket and blanket nearby to
assist with purging unused media after use.
