HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare Work Area: Ensure your work area is well-ventilated and you are wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, gloves, and a respirator.
2. Fill Reservoir: Unscrew the top of the integrated reservoir and carefully fill it with your chosen abrasive media. Ensure the abrasive is suitable for the surface you are treating and the desired outcome (e.g., baking soda for gentle cleaning, fine sand for tougher stripping). Do not overfill.
3. Connect to Air Supply: Attach an air hose equipped with an NPT1/4 male fitting to the female thread inlet on the sandblaster gun. Ensure the connection is secure to prevent air leaks.
4. Adjust Air Pressure: Connect your air hose to an air compressor. Set your compressor to the desired operating pressure, ensuring it is within the recommended range of 87.02 psi to 174 psi. Start with a lower pressure and increase if needed.
5. Test Spray: Point the gun at a scrap piece of material or an inconspicuous area to test the flow and pressure. Adjust the trigger and compressor pressure as necessary to achieve the desired abrasive output.
6. Begin Blasting: Hold the nozzle a suitable distance from the surface to be cleaned. Depress the progressive trigger to release the abrasive media. Move the gun steadily across the surface in a consistent motion for even coverage and effective cleaning.
7. Clean Up: After use, disconnect the air supply, empty any remaining abrasive from the reservoir, and clean the gun as per manufacturer recommendations to ensure longevity.
