with the main body the can is crushed. You can also
listen for the air to stop flowing (approx 20 seconds).
4.5 Turn the control lever to the 'UP' position, when the
piston has returned to the start position move the control
lever back to the centre 'STOP' position.
WARNING! Never attempt to open the door until the
