SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Compressed air can be
dangerous. Ensure that you are
thoroughly familiar with all
precautions relating to the use of
compressors and compressed air
supply.
For your personal safety and that of others around you. Follow
these safety instructions carefully.
NOTE: The numbers in brackets refer to the item numbers in the parts list on page 6
INSTALLATION
1. Connect your Spot Blast Gun to a regulated, dry air supply via the ¼” BSP connector at
the base of the handle.
2. The pressure required to operate the gun is determined by the grit size and the finish
required e.g. High Pressure + Coarse Grit = Coarse Finish
Low Pressure + Fine Grit = Fine Finish
3. Fill the Abrasive holder (bag) with the appropriate grade of grit for dry blasting, as required,
and fit bag to the gun using the clamp provided
NOTE: ALWAYS consult the grit manufacturers recommendations for the correct
grade ofgrit to be used. NEVER use wet or damp grit
OPERATION
NOTE : products used in this spray gun may be covered by COSHH Regulations.
✔ ALWAYS wear protective gloves and clothing, and a face shield or safety goggles.
NOTE: Spectacles DO NOT give sufficient protection, correct goggles must be worn,
although a full face mask is strongly recommended.
✔ Dust masks MUST ALWAYS BE WORN. Inhaling dust produced by the spot blasting
process or the possible inhalation or ingestion of grit is extremely hazardous.
✔ ALWAYS make sure there is adequate ventilation. Do not spray in confined or enclosed
areas.
✔ ALWAYS disconnect the gun from the air supply when it is not in use, and before any
disassembly.
✔ ALWAYS thoroughly clean the gun after use. See ‘Maintenance’
✔ ALWAYS turn OFF the air supply at the compressor outlet, and expel all air from the air
hose and gun, BEFORE disconnecting the Spot Blast Gun from the air hose.
✔ ALWAYS use appropriate air hoses and couplings and ensure that they are in good
condition. If any parts are worn or damaged, they should be replaced immediately.
✔ ALWAYS hold the tool firmly and maintain good balance.
✔ ALWAYS ensure hose couplings are secure before use.
✗ NEVER carry the gun by the hose. Keep hoses away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
✗ NEVER use wet or even damp grit. Ensure the grit is completely dry,
✗ NEVER operate the gun in the vicinity of an air compressor unless an efficient air filter
is fitted. The possibility of grit entering the air compressor cylinder, which would cause
serious damage, should not be overlooked.
✗ NEVER direct the Grit Spray at people or animals.. In the case of injury, seek expert
medical advice immediately.
✗ NEVER allow children to use or play with this appliance.
✗ NEVER operate the gun at pressures exceeding 100 psi (6.5 bar)
1. Fit the appropriate nozzle mask (7-10) to the gun and place the nozzle against a
scrap piece of material. Pull the trigger to discharge excessive grit in the feed tube.
You could cause damage to the workpiece if you do not carry out this procedure.
2. Hold the gun with the appropriately shaped rubber nozzle against the workpiece, and
where possible perpendicular to the workpiece. Pull the trigger for a few seconds at a time.
Check the workpiece frequently. The mask is used so that small areas of work of the
appropriate shape may be blasted. Simply place the mask over the work with the
appropriate shaped hole over the spot to be blasted.
NOTE: The softer the material the lower the pressure.
3. Shake the gun frequently when in use, to prevent a cavity forming in the grit bag (5)
thereby ensuring that the grit will be drawn up correctly.
The finish left by the spot blast operation should be ideal for immediate priming where
required.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Disconnect the spray gun from the air supply, and relieve any pressure in the gun
and hose, before any disassembly.
This Spot Blast Gun requires minimum maintenance, and requires no adjustment, as the
Air/Grit mix is factory set.
The nozzle (4) is made of hardened steel for long life, but may need replacing from time
to time, as indicated by a decrease in performance.
Should air leaks become evident, check the air valve. To do this, remove the circlip (13)
from the trigger pivot pin (12), then remove the pin and trigger (14).
Unscrew and remove the Air Valve Housing (16) and withdraw the valve components, being
careful to note their orientation. Ensure the sealing rings are perfectly serviceable. If in doubt,
they should be replaced.
