gloves and a

NIOSH/MSHA

approved

respirator

must be worn

during

operation and

clean up.

3. During operation, do not expose

the hands or skin directly in the line

of the blast nozzle.

4. After assembly, inspect to make

sure all components seal properly.

5. Everyone in the blasting area must

also wear protective gear.

6. Do not exceed the maximum

operating pressure of the blasting

equipment (125 psi).

Disconnect

the

abrasive blaster from the air supply

before changing accessories or

attempting to install, service, relocate

or perform any maintenance.

7. Check hoses and air lines for weak

or worn condition before each use.

Make sure all connections are

secure before use.

point the

abrasive blaster gun at anyone or objects

other than the intended work object.

8. Do not depress the trigger when

connecting the air supply hose.

SILICA ABRASIVE HAZARD

Breathing

dust from abrasives containing Silica

can be dangerous. Exposure can cause

SILICOSIS, lung disease, or other

respiratory problems,

Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator

at all times then performing abrasive

blasting and while cleaning up.

Fire or Explosion Hazard!Never

use a sand blaster around

combustible or flammable

liquids, gases, dusts, oily rags,

or other materials that can

explode or burn quickly. Some

abrasives create sparks when

they hit metal. Abrasives

similar to aluminum oxide may generate

static electric sparks. In an unsafe

environment, these sparks will start fires

or explosions that will result in death or

serious personal injury. For your safety

and the safety of people nearby, DO NOT

USE this sand blaster where there are

combustible or flammable liquids, gases,

dusts, oily rags, or other materials that

can explode or burn quickly.

Static electric shocks can be

painful. Some abrasives

similar to aluminum oxide can

create static electricity while you are

sand blasting. If you are not grounded,

the static electricity can build up on

your body and cause a shock when you

touch a metal object. You can avoid

static electricity by wearing leather

soled shoes and standing on the ground.

If necessary, a grounded wire attached

to the sand blast gun will safely remove

the static electricity. Remember, you are

not grounded if you are insulated from

the ground. Rubber soled shoes, rubber

boots, or other rubber or plastic

footwear are insulators. Avoid standing

on dry wood (like a wooden pallet) a

dry mat, or dry carpet.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Do not

misuse

this product. Excessive exposure to

vibration, work in awkward positions,

and repetitive work motions can cause

injury to hands and arms. Stop using any

tool if discomfort, numbness, tingling or

pain occur, and consult a physician.

NOTE: Abrasive media that has not been cleaned and screened could contain material that will clog the gun nozzle and should be avoided. Use low air pressure (60 psi or less) for soft metals, glass , and wood. Use higher pressures for hard steels; do not exceed 125 psi. Remove flaking paint first with wire brush, then blast with a heavy grit abrasive. Multiple layer of old paint should be scraped first. Prime immediately following blasting to prevent corrosion. Blast at a 45 - 60o angle.
PAGE 5
NOTA: El abrasivo que no ha sido limpiado y tamizado puede contener material que obturará la boquilla de la pistola y no debería usarse. Use baja presión de aire (4,14 bar o menos) para los metales blandos, vidrio y madera. Use una presión más elevada para aceros duros; no exceda los 8,62 bar. Retire la pintura descascarada con un cepillo de alambre, luego rocíe con un abrasivo de grano grueso. Es necesario raspar primero las capas múltiples de pintura vieja.

NOTE: Les médias abrasifs qui n’ont pas été nettoyés et tamisés pourraient contenir un matériau qui bloquera la buse du pistolet et cela doit être évité. Utiliser une basse pression d’air (414 kPa ou moins) pour les métaux mous, le verre et le bois. Utiliser des pressions plus élevées pour les aciers durs sans dépasser 862 kPa. Retirer la peinture qui s’écaille d’abord avec une brosse de métal, puis décaper avec un abrasif à particules plus lourdes.
