EXHAUST INSTALLATION
AIR INLET CONNECTION
AIR EXHAUST INSTALLATION
We strongly recommend using a dirt / water trap and an air pressure regulator when
using your GWM 500.
The pressure regulator and lter should be installed on the compressed air inlet of the
cleaner as shown in the picture.
The air pressure should be set between 76 and 100 psi.
Evacuate fume outside of the building or link the exhaust to the building air
evacuation system using a 3” exible aluminum duct.
No additional ventilation system required.
