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 path 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.
cautiOn! Prior to sandblasting, protect other people
(and property) in the work area from flying debris by
providing barriers or shields. Wear appropriate clothing
and safety gear when operating the Abrasive Blast Gun.
If possible, place the workpiece inside a sandblast
cabinet (not included). Otherwise, isolate the
workpiece to make sure no damage can occur to
nearby walls, tools, equipment, or other property.
4. Remove the cap from the Hopper (19) and fill the
Hopper with abrasive media. WarninG! tO
preVent SeriOuS inJury: Do not use sand
(crystalline silica) for blasting.
5. Once filled, replace the cap.
nOte: To keep the beads from accidentally spilling
out of the Nozzle, do not point the Nozzle downward .
