NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Always start as gently as possible and
then increase the blast force as necessary to
clean without doing any damage to the substrate.

times per minute. High production rate users
may need to increase cycle rate above 10 cycles
per minute.
NOTE: NOTE: Close the abrasive ball valve whenever NOTE:
you stop blasting for more than 20-30 minutes.
This will help to extend the service life of the
