5. Maintenance

5.1 Dust bag. Empty the dust bag regularly. The dust bag is held in place by an elastic strap

and by a wire-reinforced split seam on the top of the bag. The seam tucks into a metal clip

on the exhaust tube. To remove the dust bag, unsnap the elastic strap, grab the end of the

bag and pull it toward the main body until the place where the split seam joins together

clears the end of the metal clip. The bag can be removed and shaken out. To reattach the

bag (see g. 4.1.1), shove the exhaust tube into the bag until the end of the metal clip is

beyond the place where the seam joins. Tuck both of the reinforcing wires into the clip and

pull the bag away from the main body, shoving the reinforcing wires into the clip as you pull.

Don’t forget to resnap the elastic.

5.2 Inspecting for blockages. The nozzle can be removed for inspection by loosening the

thumb screw on the blast head. The interior passages can be inspected by unscrewing the

swivel nut which connect the air hose to the blast head.

ATTENTION!

NEVER LOOK INTO THE NOZZLE WHEN THE TOOL IS CONNECTED

TO A PRESSURIZED AIR SUPPLY LINE.

5.4 Blast nozzle. Inspect the blast nozzle regularly and replace it when worn-out. The blast

nozzle can be removed by loosening the thumb screw on the blast head. Never tighten the

thumb screw more than nger tight.
