Before You Begin
1. Check the tightness of the tank cover. The O-ring seal must be firmly seated against
the tank.
2. Check to see that the end of the tank vent hose is inserted into the back of the
workstation or dust collector hose.
3. Depress the tank cover flapper (see Figure 3-3), and using the funnel from the
accessory kit, pour the selected abrasive powder into the tank, filling it at least half
full. Do not overfill. Tap the flapper as it closes so that any powder on it will be
dislodged into the tank and not interfere with sealing of the O-ring.
4. Reposition hoses in the pinches by about 2". It should become a habit to move the
hoses through the pinches on a regular basis. This will allow the pinch to squeeze
the hose in a different spot, increasing the life of the hoses.
5. Maintain a generous loop in the abrasive hose between the abrasive pinch valve and
the hose connection on the rear panel.
