Warning!
The following information regarding the control of legionella is provided for your
guidance. However information regarding the bacteria, its health risks and
effective control changes over time. The user should ascertain that they are
using the latest information and control techniques and that the method of control
they choose is suitable for the equipment and location of its use. The following
information was published in September 2003.
Control of Legionella
1.01 What is egionnaires Disease?
Legionnaires disease is a form of pneumonia which, for certain susceptible
groups of people is potentially fatal. The cause of the disease is the Legionella
bacteria which is found commonly in nature, in rivers, ponds and water courses.
1.02 How are people infected with the egionella bacteria?
Infection is caused by a person breathing in small droplets of water contaminated
with the bacteria. Everyone is potentially susceptible but some groups of people
are more at risk. People over 45, smokers, heavy drinkers, those with an
impaired immune system and people suffering from chronic respiratory or kidney
disease.
1.03 Under what conditions will the bacteria become a threat?
As previously stated the bacteria is present in the environment but generally
causes no harm. However under certain conditions it will thrive and multiply,
producing water that is so contaminated that droplets of such water, if inhaled
cause a real threat to health. Three conditions affect the risk of infection. These
are water temperature, water cleanliness and droplet size.
Water Temperature
The bacteria thrives at water temperatures between 20ºC & 45ºC. At cooler water
temperatures the bacteria is not killed but does not multiply. At higher water
temperatures (above 60ºC) the bacteria is killed.
Water Cleanliness
If the water is between 20ºC and 40ºC the bacteria will thrive if a supply of
nutrients is present. Rust, sludge, scale, algae or other bacteria will provide a
suitable nutrient source for the bacteria. It should be noted that nutrients may be
present in water that appears to be clean to the naked eye.
Droplet Size
©Tornado International Ltd. 2022 -4- Confidential

Medieval Blasta User Manual V4 0722
If the two conditions above are met then the final criteria to enable infection is
droplet size. The droplets produced by the equipment’s operation have to be
small enough to be inhaled by people.
1.04 How can the risk be controlled?
Of the three conditions above two are outside of your control. The droplet size is
a function of the water pressure at the gun, the angle the stream hits the targets
and the weather conditions. The HSE advise that water falling into a bath from a
tap can produce droplets of a suitable size, so it is reasonable to assume that the
operation of Aqua Blasta will also produce droplets of a size that are able to be
inhaled.
Water temperature will vary according to the time of day, the season and
equipment’s location. It should be noted that it is the water temperature that is
important, not the air temperature. As a rule water heats up more slowly than air
but takes longer to cool when the source of heat is removed. In practice this
means that an Aqua Blasta sited outdoors and facing south in the United
Kingdom will reach maximum water temperature in the late afternoon. It should
be noted that if the water temperature exceeds 20ºC for part of the day, it is
possible for the bacteria to multiply during the warm period. As the bacteria is not
killed by cooler temperatures they will survive the cooler periods, only to multiply
again when the water returns to higher temperatures. It is thus possible for the
bacteria to multiply by instalments, increasing in quantity with each successive
warm period.
The bacteria will not multiply without both warm water and nutrients. However
trying to deprive the bacteria of nutrients is not a practical solution as it is
impossible to tell visually if nutrients are available.
It is preferable to have Aqua Blasta connected to a mains water supply as this
will ensure that water lost during operation is replaced by fresh water, which can
be considered to be free of the bacteria so long as the supply is kept cool and
used regularly.
Management Regime.
The water temperature will need to be monitored using a water thermometer. If
the water temperature stays below 20ºC it is only necessary to keep the water
clean by removing any debris promptly and changing the water as and when
necessary.
If the water temperature exceeds 20ºC then a biocide needs to be added to the
water to kill the bacteria. Many biocides are available but consideration should be
given to the following issues. The treated water will find its way onto skin and
clothes of the public and as such needs to be safe in these conditions. The
biocide chosen needs to be compatible with the materials used in the
construction of Aqua Blasta. These include Glass fibre, PVC, Brass Stainless
Steel and Cast Iron. Your employees will have to handle the biocide and
consideration should be given to their training, health and safety.

Medieval Blasta User Manual V4 0722
Caution!
In all cases guidance should be obtained from the chemical manufacturer and
their instructions followed carefully. Undiluted chemicals may cause harm to
people and the Aqua Blasta. It is vital to train all relevant personnel in the correct
use of any chemical.
The biocide needs to be diluted and administered according to the manufacturers
instructions. You should keep records of temperature checks and biocide use.
1.04 Your obligations under law
To comply with general health and safety law you must consider the risks from
Legionella that may affect your staff or members of the public and take suitable
precautions. You must :
Identify and assess the sources of risk
Prepare a scheme or course of action for preventing or controlling the risk
Implement and manage the scheme and appoint a person to be responsible
for the scheme
Keep records and check that what has been done is effective
If you have five or more employees you must keep records in writing of the
findings of any assessment and details of any monitoring, checking or
treatment carried out.

The vend price increments in steps of 5. It is important to chose a vend price
which is exactly divisible by the lowest value coin your coin acceptors are
programmed to accept. For example if the lowest coin the game accepts is 10,
the vend price should not be set to any value ending in 5 (e.g. £1.25) as it
impossible for your customer to insert the correct price. If this should occur the
game will vend as soon as the vend price is reached and any additional credit will
be retained against the next game on the same playing position. Any retained
credit is lost if power is removed from the game.
