Why does my air gun lack power?
The three most common problems are:
• Undersized air lines
• Restrictions due to undersized fittings and/or connectors
• Inadequate plant air pressure or capacity
If I block the side ports of a venturi nozzle with tape will I increase the thrust?
Absolutely not! Blocking the side ports does not provide extra power at the nozzle tip. Thrust is actually reduced because ambient outside air cannot
be drawn into the outgoing air stream. In addition, the nozzle is no longer OSHA non-compliant.
What is the maximum ambient temperature in which I can operate my Guardair safety air gun?
The maximum ambient temperature in which our air guns can be used is 200°F.
I recently purchased a HydroForce, hooked up the air and water lines, but only air comes out of the nozzle. Why?
The probable cause is inadequate air flow and/or air pressure.
• First, be sure to use an air line that provides adequate air flow to the HydroForce.
• Second, be sure that all air fittings and connectors are adequately sized and offer no restrictions.
• Third, ensure that the operating air pressure measures between 80 and 120 psi. Visit our website for video demo, including set-up and operation,
of the HydroForce.

PRODUCTS/PARTS/ACCESSORIES
Does Guardair offer replacement parts and/or repair kits for safety air guns?
We carry replacement parts for the all of our guns. You can purchase replacement nozzles, extensions, and handles, as well as gun rebuild kits.
How are extended reach air guns (ie Long Johns) assembled?
First, thread locker is applied to the threads of each component (nozzle, extension, and handle). Components are then screwed together and tight-
ened to factory specifications. The result is a semi-permanent connection with structural integrity.
