Safety
Read all instructions before using this machine.
Warning and important safety instructions appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when
assembling or using this product.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or manufacturer about problems or conditions you do
not understand.
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered work benches and dark work areas may cause accidents
or injury.
• Do not operate the abrasive blaster in explosive areas, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children and visitors away while operating the abrasive blaster. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it is designed.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
• Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the nozzle valve is in the off position when not in use.
• Keep the air hose in good condition, and replace damaged air hose immediately. Keep the air hose away
from materials and surfaces that could damage air hose.
• Do not use this tool if you are:
- Feeling tired or are under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
- Wearing loose clothing or jewellery. Keep long hair pulled back and away from moving parts.
- Overreaching or have improper footing. Handling the tool in this way could cause serious injury.
• When using this abrasive blaster, always:
- Wear the proper safety equipment, such as safety goggles, dust masks, non-slip shoes.
- Check to be sure all adjusting keys or wrenches have been removed before starting the power tool.
• Secure and support the work piece using clamps. Do not use your hands to hold the piece in place. Use
the correct tool for the job. Using the correct tool is safer and faster.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your tool model.
• Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance by unqualified
personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts and follow instructions in the manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance Instructions may create a risk of shock or injury.
• Before opening the tank, release the air pressure on the sand tank. To do this, turn off the air supply valve
(14) to release pressure in the line. Ensure that the tank pressure gauge (05) reads zero, then open the
tank.
• Maintain correct air pressure. Pressure should not exceed 8,6 bar. If it does , the safety valve (06) is
supposed to release the excess pressure. If this doesn't happen, stop all work immediately, and use the air
compressor to reduce the excess pressure . Do not investigate the sandblaster's pressure problem until the
pressure gauge (05) reads zero.
• When using tools such as your air compressor, whether powered by electric motor or gasoline engine,
basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal
injury. You should review the safety instructions for your air compressor before beginning sandblasting with
this machine.
