MAINTENANCE
Disassemble and Assemble Blastmaster
Maintenance of the Blastmaster
cleaning and the immediate replacement of damaged or worn parts.
Note: Anytime a switch is being replaced, the cord supplied with switch should be replaced
and discarded.
Disassemble:
1) Disconnect switch from power source.
2) Remove Cap (1) by turning counter-clockwise.
Note: Note that terminals 1, 2 and 3 on Switch (2) and the threads in Cap (1) have silicone
on them. This silicone must be removed from all surfaces.
3) Cut cord (5) at location (7).
4) Loosen Screws (6) by rotating counterclockwise four full turns.
5) Remove Boot (4) by unscrewing counterclockwise.
6) Remove Switch (2) by pushing on end of exposed Toggle (8).
7) Remove any residual silicone.
Assemble:
1) Install Electric Control Line (5) into Switch Body (3).
2) Taking switch (2) in hand, slide switch into place with the groove on Threads (9) facing
down. Pull Electric Control Line through Switch Body until Switch (2) seats in Switch
Body.
3) Install Jumper Cable (13) across terminals #1 and #3.
Note: When Switch (2) is properly seated, Terminal #1 (10) will be on top.
4) To connect cord, the white wire should be connected to Terminal #2 (11) and the black
wire connected to Terminal #3 (12). Tighten screws (10 -–12).
5) Decrease the amount of excess wire located in the switch cavity by pulling on cord (5)
until all of the excess has been removed.
6) Tighten Screws (6) by rotating clockwise four full turns.
7) Install boot (4) by rotating clockwise on Threads (9), making sure that the boot is on
snugly. Over-tightening will cause damage to the boot and nullify its effectiveness. One
full turn of the boot after it has reached its position should suffice.
8) Check for electrical continuity by connecting White And Black wires to a flashlight
continuity checker, then depressing boot. Light should come on. Repeat this procedure
by raising boot. Light should come on. Under no circumstances should light come on
when boot is in the center (neutral) position.
Note: If the switch is not working properly, recheck steps 1 through 4.
9) Apply a sufficient amount of silicone to completely cover to terminals 1, 2, & 3. Apply
a small amount of silicone to female threads in cap (1) and install cap (1) by rotating
clockwise approximately 3 times.
