PERSONAL SAFETY

RISK OF INJURY. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when

operating the tool. Do not use the tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool increase the risk of injury to persons. RISK OF INJURY. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair increase the risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in moving parts.

RISK OF INJURY. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the trigger is off before connecting to the air supply. Do not carry the tool with your finger on the trigger or connect the tool to the air supply with the trigger on. Do not carry the tool by the hose or yank the hose to disconnect it from the air supply.

RISK TO BREATHING/INHALATION HAZARD. Always wear MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator and work in a well ventilated area when using tools that generate dust. Some dust created by power sanding, grinding, drilling and other

construction activities contains chemicals known (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

• arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber. RISK OF INJURY. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before turning the tool on. A

wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool increases the risk of personal injury.

RISK OF INJURY. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

PERSONAL SAFETY (continued)

RISK OF HEARING LOSS. Always wear ANSI S3.19 approved ear protection when using the tool. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise is able to cause hearing loss.

RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety goggles when using an air tool. Air powered equipment and power tools are capable of propelling materials such as

metal chips, sawdust, and other debris at high speed which could result in serious eye injury.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Explore the workpiece to avoid contact with hidden wiring. Thoroughly investigate the workpiece for possible hidden wiring before performing

work. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator.

RISK OF INJURY. Avoid prolonged exposure to vibration. Air powered tools can vibrate during use and repetitive motion or vibration may cause injury. Avoid prolonged use of the tool or stop using the tool if discomfort occurs.

TOOL USE AND CARE SAFETY

RISK OF INJURY. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against the body is unstable and is

able to lead to loss of control. RISK OF INJURY. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for the application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which the tool is designed. RISK OF INJURY. Do not use the tool if the trigger does not turn the tool on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the trigger is dangerous and must be repaired.

RISK OF INJURY. Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative safety measures

reduce the risk of starting the tool unintentionally.

RISK OF INJURY. Store the tool when it is idle, out of reach of children and other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that affects the tool's operation. If

damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Do not operate the tool with the protective guarding removed or damaged. Replace the tool or have it repaired by an authorized service center. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools or air hose. There is a risk of bursting if the tool is damaged.

RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Check for damaged air hose. Keep the air hose away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Inspect the air hose periodically and replace it if it becomes worn or damaged.

RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Use compressed air regulated to a maximum pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments. Never operate the tool over

90 PSI. Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or accessories could cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.

RISK OF INJURY. Use only accessories that are designed for the specific tool. Use of an accessory not intended for use with the specific tool, increases the risk of injury to persons.

TOOL SERVICE SAFETY RISK OF INJURY. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. RISK OF INJURY. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Use only

authorized parts. Use only the lubricants supplied with the tool or specified by Coleman Powermate.

AIR SOURCE SAFETY

RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Never connect to an air source that is greater than 90 psi. Over pressurizing the tool is able to result in bursting, abnormal operation,

breakage of the tool, or serious injury to persons. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the rated pressure or within the rated pressure range as marked on the tool. Always verify prior to using the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or within the rated air pressure range.

RISK OF EXPLOSION AND INJURY. Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any bottled gas as an air source for the tool. Such gases are capable of explo-

sion and serious injury to persons.

OPERA

To begin using the tool:

1. As a standard practice, drain water from the air compressor tank and air lines prior to use each day (reference your compressor operators manual for detailed instructions). IMPORTANT: Installation of

appropriate water/oil removal equipment is recommended. Failure to do so will cake the abrasive material and clog the sandblasting gun, causing the gun to not operate (follow the recommended installation for the spray gun in Figure 1).

2. Install a 1/4” NPT male connector (not included) into the air inlet port on the tool (see Figure 2). Note: Use

Teflon® Tape on all threaded connections.

3. Turn on the air compressor and allow it to build up pressure.

4. Adjust the air compressor’s regulator or the supply line regulator to 90 PSI.

Assembly:

1. Push one end of the siphon hose onto the small end of the metal aspirator tube (see Figure 3). NOTE: Do not push the

siphon hose all the way onto the aspirator tube, only push on about an inch.

2. Push the other end of the siphon hose onto the vacuum tube (See Figure 3).

3. Insert the aspirator tube into the abrasive material, making sure that the shorter tube remains above the material (the tube can be placed directly into the bag). Silica (playground sand) or hard sand, ground nut shells or aluminum oxide carbide are all abrasive materials that can be used. NOTE: Make sure that

the abrasive material is dry.

4. Connect the tool to the air hose quick coupler. NOTE: It is recommended that a whip hose with a swivel (P012-0079SP - not included) be used to prevent twisting, kinking and excessive wear to the air hose (ref. item “F” in figure 1 for recommended connections).

Always disconnect the sandblaster from the air supply before changing accessories, relocating or performing any maintenance.

5. To start sandblasting, gently pull back on the trigger using smooth and even strokes accross the blasting surface. NOTE: The nozzle should be positioned at an angle to the surface being sandblasted rather

than perpendicular, to reduce work surface material from rebounding back at you.

Risk of Injection. The high pressure and abrasive materials that are used during sandblasting can penetrate skin and cuase serioius injury. Wear ANSI A87.1 approved safety glasses or face shield, gloves and a MSHA/NIOSH approved resiprator during operation. Always direct spray away from self and others or serious injury could occur.

6. To stop sandblasting, release the trigger.
