3. AIR SUPPLY

WARNING! Ensure the air supply does not exceed 120psi (8.2 bar) while operating the unit. Too high an air pressure will shorten the

life of the unit due to excessive wear and may cause damage and/or personal injury.

3.1 Ensure the blaster air valve (trigger) is in the ‘Off’ position before connecting to the air supply.

3.2 Keep the air hose between the compressor and the unit a reasonable length and install an air filter and water separator (fig.1).
