Air Supply Setup

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM EXPLOSION:

Use only clean, dry, regulated, compressed air to power this tool. Do not use oxygen,

carbon dioxide, combustible gases, or any other bottled gas as a power source for this tool.

1.To attach a grit supply hose - 1/4 IN - 18 NPT (not included) to the Abrasive Blast Gun, wrap approximately 3” of pipe thread sealer tape (not included) around the male threads at the end of the grit supply hose. Then, firmly tighten the grit supply hose onto the Air Inlet of the Blast Gun.

2.Incorporate a filter, regulator with pressure gauge, oiler, in-line shutoff valve, and quick coupler for best service, as shown on Figure A on page 6 and Figure B on page 7. An in-line shutoff

ball valve is an important safety device because it controls the air supply even if the air hose

is ruptured. The shutoff valve should be a ball valve because it can be closed quickly.

Note: If an automatic oiler system is not used, add a few drops of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline connection before operation. Add a few more drops after each hour of continual use.

3.Attach an air hose to the compressor’s air outlet. Connect the air hose to the air inlet of the tool. Other components, such as a coupler plug and quick coupler, will make operation

more efficient, but are not required.

WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:

Do not install a female quick coupler on the tool. Such a coupler contains an air valve that will allow the air tool to retain pressure and operate accidentally after the air supply is disconnected.

Note: Air flow, and therefore tool performance, can be hindered by undersized air supply components.

4.The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.

5.Close the in-line shutoff valve between the compressor and the tool.

6.Turn on the air compressor according to the manufacturer’s directions and allow it to build up pressure until it cycles off.

7.Adjust the air compressor’s output regulator so that the air output is enough to properly power the tool, but the output will not exceed the tool’s maximum air pressure at any time. Adjust

the pressure gradually, while checking the air output gauge to set the right pressure range.

8.Inspect the air connections for leaks. Repair any leaks found.

9.If the tool will not be used at this time, turn off and detach the air supply and safely discharge any residual air pressure to prevent accidental operation.

Note: Residual air pressure should not be present after the tool is disconnected from the air supply. However, it is a good safety measure to attempt to discharge the tool in a safe fashion after disconnecting to ensure that the tool is disconnected and unpowered.
